Blog's Feedback

I visited some of my classmates's blogs and I made some comments about them, here's the evidence and I'd like to mention that I also have a tumblr blog with activities from my previous english classes if you want to check it out my user name is xallyvargas.

Final reflection

At the beggining of the semester I thougth that this class would be the same as my english classes in high school: reading, speaking and writting. Yes, we did that in the class but we also made a lot more activities like oral presentations, videos, interviews, the collage and more.

Some times it was hard to do the activities because they were a little more complex and we needed plenty of time to make them and I personally didn't have that much time but I always found a way to make them and do it as best as posible.

I learned a lot about culture in general, other countries and topics I'd never thought about before but with the blog and all that I also learned how to make my blog more attractive, interactive and easy for people to read. For example: I didn't knew hot to embed the videos, presentations and word documets and now I do (Hope you agree).

As I said before it was hard to get all the activities done because there were a lot of projects but I enjoyed the class and it  changed my perspective in so many different ways. Thanks for everything teacher. (:

France

This is my presentation about the country. It was really easy to get the information by talking with people living there, Tandem turned out to be an easy tool to use and also helpful.

With this activity I learned that there are some things that France and Mexico have in common and also differences. The people I contacted by Tandem was really kind and they answered all my questions, so I recomend using this app.

Here's the presentation and you can also listen to the audio.

Male chauvinism essay

I wrote this essay about male chauvinism in Mexico because I truly believe that this is the origin of our major problems in the country and we need to start doing something about it, not wait others to do it. Writing essays in general during the whole semester has helped me a lot with the way I structure my thoughts and also it has made me enrich my vocabulary and be concise so that people can understand easily what I'm saying without using basic vocabulary.

3 words, 13 languages

In this entry you'll find three infographics that explains how to say three words in 13 different languages and later at the end of the entry there's a video that will help you with the pronunciation of these words.

This was a really cool and fun activity to do because we don't usually care about other languages or we don't even realize how different they are from each other. I personally believed that knowing spanish and english was enough and I certainly didn't imagine that there were so many languages and after doing this activity I definately feel interested in learning more languages and about different cultures.
