A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

The Subject  that I like the most in this second semester is Social History of Chile. In the classes, the teacher uses the narration of a story to explain the emergence and development of the popular classes in Chile. Related to the contents, we have seen the development of Chilean society at the beginning of the republican era. We have also seen the processes of marginality and autonomy of the Chilean popular class, with a focus on peonal networks, artisanal mutualism, the proletarian movement, the origin of anarchism and Latin American and Creole socialism. The last thing we saw was the "social question", the rebellion of the social actors, the emergence of the student movement and the popular constituent power. And more recently the political model ibañista, national-desarrollismo and structural reforms.The emergence of the movement of settlers and the historical tension between the power of the masses and the power of direct action. I like the subject because i...

My favorite animal

In the field of mating, artificial insemination is usually used given the difficulty of riding or natural jumping, since th...

English Languages Challenges

Hi all! Today I will write about my experience in these semesters and my plans to learn English. My experience of learning English at university has not been the best, mainly because of my lack of motivation to learn and my lack of willingness to improve. Regarding blogs, they have helped me expand my vocabulary and have also stimulated my ability to think in English. The main aspect that I must improve to learn English is motivation. To take refuge in that I did not have a good teaching of English in my childhood would be to hide my lack of interest. Outside of English classes, I usually practice reading (or trying to read) music and whiskey reviews. Besides looking for translations of songs that make me compare languages directly. My experience in this semester is highlighted by a greater willingness to learn and a greater awareness of the importance of knowing English these days. The realization of the videos was a great challenge for me. I tried to improve my pronunciation...
