English in a pandemic

Open English exito - La historia de Open English | Open English
Hi guys! Finally we are on the last blog, I hope you're doing well with the return to classes :)

It's been a difficult months, on every way of my life. I've never thought to bee studying at my home and neither studying english at my home, it's like taking a course of "Open English" haha.
I have to say that on the beginning of the course it was a little bit difficult for me to speak in english in front of the other classmates, but one day I thought "They can't even watch me, they don't even know me", so that made me realize that no one cares about my pronunciation (only the teacher, of course) and we were all learning. I hope that I can still speaking in english with no shame when we go back to "normality" and get back to the physical university.
I've always noticed that my writing and listening are very good, but when I have to talk in this language I get very nervous and my mind goes to white, I can't think one word and that's been happening to me since I was 13 years old. I don't know why, it just happens.
But like I said before, with this online mode I break that wall of shame and now I have to improve my pronunciation and my fluency. That's just only practice and been constantly speaking in English. I had always try to speak at the classes, it have helped me a lot in that sense.
The only problem I have is that outside the classes I don't speak a lot of English because I don't have friends outside the country that speaks in this language... I only watch series or movies on English because I hate the dubbing. If you have advices to keep speaking English outside the classes, you would help me a lot.

Thanks for reading!
See you at the next level.

New academic programme?

Hello! Today's post it's going to be a little difficult haha, I hope it goes well. I choose this university because I liked a lot the curriculum of my carrer, it was what I wanted because there's a balance between the humanistic and the scientist side and other universities were heavily loaded to an one of these extremes and to be honest with you guys, I hate the scientist part but it's necessary in our knowledge.  However, I didn't know too much about co-curricular activities and when I started my first year I'd got dissapointed. The JGM campus has this giant sport camp, but the sport that I was looking it wasn't there ): . Since 2018 I practice "Crossfit" and it was very difficult for me to continue doing this sport at the same time that I was studying. The schedules didn't match with my training times that I had been doing.  The campus has the implemments to do this course, because there is a similar one called "Halterofilia...

Postgraduate studies

Hello everyone! I hope you're good :) Today I'm writing about my "postgraduate studies". If I'm honest, I haven't think too much about this because I live day by day, specially in this pandemic situation haha.  I've always thought that it's something wrong with the world, there it's too much people sad and beeing silenced by other people, and when I find out about this beautiful movement called "Feminisim", I felt hopeful again. Since this discovery in my life, I think that we can be whoever we want, no more people saying "you can't wear that, it's too masculine" or "you must clean the house because you have to be a good housewife".  In actual society, minority groups usually feel frustrated, tired to beeing critized and I would love to help them, say to them "you have to let yourself be". I dream about a diverse society, where no one feels opressed and besides all the problems that "U...
