ReplyDeleteMy name is Jennyfer Katherine Sánchez Gutiérrez. I´m 18 years old . I like to watch movies and play basketball. I want to know new cultures because of I study English . When I write and read in English I have some problems, but I know that I can improve. When I write, for example in this moment , is very difficult for me express in a paper, because I don´t have clear ideas; other difficulty is that I don´n know to use puctuation mark in English and sometimes I don´t know many vocabulary about specific topic. On other hand when I read is very funny I like do it, this is a good form by learn and know new words, places, topics, useful phrases in addition I can understand the principal idea Quick, I have good understanding of reading and I choose wonderful books for I´m not boring. To sum up I think that the best estrategy is to practice, reading and writing about interesting topics and pay attention to the teacher´s explanations.

I think that writing is one of my best skills and I guess that I don’t have a weakness or no yet. Is important to have on mind that when somebody learn a language should have present the use of some strategies to get a better level and develop the language skills, on writing is a good idea practice the correct form to write unknown vocabulary and difficult words to sum up is necessary have a dictionary to do everything easy.

ReplyDeleteBy the way, when I am studing english language, I can’t listen the words in a composition clearly. In the other hand, my strength is the oral and reading comprehension about english classes. Also when I write I don’t feel comfortable because I don’t remember some principal words but I can take faster the structure of a sentences. In addition, specially when I read I can’t understand good being that it appears a lot unknown vocabulary.
Finally, I think that some strategies to learn foreing language are : listen to radio surfing on internet and following the script about this, watch movies without subtitles in spanish and read short tales in english.

DeleteThe mirror´s messages
ReplyDeleteshe in front of the mirror , she watches your reflection; She is Angela, she lives in Tunja, but she was born in Sogamoso city. She enjoys the peacefulness of nature, go for a walk, the lively music, and the art. She likes the social movies based on real events or the comedy kind. In your free time, she draws, reads, or she makes handicrafts. When she travels to Sogamoso, she meets with a group of friends called “Pasión Extrema”, where she sings, prays and analyses the bible passages.
The image of the young disappears from the mirror. Now she just watches two words strengths and weakness in the learning English as foreign language. She worries because of her careless, and quickly with paper and pencil she makes a list. She thinks her greatest weakness is to speak it, also understand this language when she listens it; she is insecure or pressured, she sometimes stays with the mind in blank; then she searches songs and tales, where the words are spoken slowly, but she must do more things like think in English, and immediately search vocabulary she needs, in addition, get with spaces and peoples that find her mistakes and finally, they give her some advice. When she finds your mistakes, she must write and read the right way, in addition, she improves her reading and writing.
On the other hand, if she understand the listening, read is easier. Reading is related to writing, because from she reads, learns to write; also she must search English friends to chat.
To sump up the learning of a new language should be a fun process, where she listens it to speak it, she speaks to read it and she reads to write it; where her memorization of words and sentences used according to context allow to improve her fluently in the four areas.
She folds the paper and she sticks it on the mirror, she thinks the mirror is her tutor who it will advise about her way of learning

ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, my strenghts when I learn a language are: my dedication, responsibility and discipline during and outside.of class. In addition, I am persevering and I like to get good results. My weaknesses when I learn a language are: understand when someone speaks in English, because of, I feel that they speak very fast, I organize my ideas in my head, but I am slow to say them.

Hi, every one!
ReplyDeleteI’m Tatiana Mendivelso so I’m studing modern language. I'm from Sativasur. Now, in my free time, I do a lot of things for example I like listen to music, I like to travel, I love to eat broaster chicken and I like read books. I don't like run so I hate hypocritical people.
I yearn to graduate me and continue with my studies and finally I want to travel around the world. Thas' it!
In this space I will tell you about my strengths and my weaknesses because I think that is a important topic for my life. On the other hand, now I tell you my strenghts as foreign language learner first is my writing because I know very well the structure of the words , second my pronunciation because I know the different sounds of the words and if you want to know what are my weaknesses are here: my speaking because my fluency isn't good, I don't think fast because of the lack of vocabulary knowledge. Now, when I read, I think that my weakness is fluency because in some cases I do not know the meaning of words and my strength is the pronunciation when I know the sounds of words, also When I write my weaknesses is the puntuation's rules, I don't have clear it! In addition for me the better strategie for fostering my lenguage learning is know more about the puntuation's rules or acquire more vocabulary for example we can learn 5 words every days , it's a good strategie!
To sume up you must check more about the language grammar to mistakes when we speak, read, write and spell.
Thank you for reading me! :)

ReplyDeletemy weaknesses are not write correctly, I have flaws because of this grammar texts I write sometimes left with poor structurebut I really want to learn to do well, another of my weaknesses is that I get distracted easily when a topic is very extensive so I have to practice to improve my attention on something. In addition I can say that although it is hard for some things I can do well if I put interest in the subject on the other hand can say that if I chose this career to study is because I really like it and want to learn so I'm sure I can do it. Some of the tools they would use to assist in the process would be books, posters and flashy things. To sum up learning other languages is one of the things that most interested me and I think in this area can develop more skills.

ReplyDelete你好！！ (*´・ｖ・)
ReplyDeleteMy name is Ángela Galvis. I am 19 years old, almost 20. I like everything about Asia culture. I use to read about it, to listen to music from there, to dance and to eat typical Chinese and Korean food ヽ(*≧ω≦)ﾉ. In my free time, I like to play guitar, to read books such as: El mundo de Sofía, Rayuela, Historia de Cronopios y de Famas, El Manuscrito Encontrado en Accra and stories in English where I can find new vocabulary and so on. As a foreign language learner, is obviously that I have more weaknesses than strengths. But I consider I am better at reading than listening because when I don’t understand some words, I can use the dictionary and find out it, but when I am listening some records or people, I can’t do it. Because of I like reading I can understand everything unless there are words I don’t understand, but in the case of writing, I get confused with some slangs like: “Went off”, “Get down”, “Shutting off” because I don’t know in what case I can use those slangs. So, that is my weakness. The same happens when I use “By” and “for”╥﹏╥. In addition, I use to repeat words in a text and I would like, to improve my reading, read everything in English so, in that way, I can believe that my brain is in a city where everybody speaks in this language. On the other hand for writing skills, I think I have to practice, and practice and if punctuation rules are the same for English and Spanish, I believe I can improve my writing.
To sum up, I hope this course can full my expectatives since I am so interested in write in the correct way and get more skills to understand faster all the text.
再见！谢谢｡◕‿◕｡

Hi everyone... My name is Paola Niño, I´m 25 years old, i´m living in Tunja, but i´m from Duitama. I used to practice basketball, listen music and dance. I was studying Preeschool Education at the UPTC, and after a year and a half i decided to change my career for Modern Languages. I would like travel and lear more languages. I´m really interesting to travel around the world, to know other cultures, and their life styles. I would like to study international bussisness administration if is possible in other country.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand i think is very important for our country to know other language, we are in a competitive environment, and for that reason we have to study. On the other hand i think is very important for our country to know other language, we are in a competitive environment, and for that reason we have to study and approach the habilities to teach the english as a second language. During the learning process we will find many weaknesses and some times it will be hard to understand something, in special with the vocabulary but we as a future teachers we have to study and learn much vocabulary as possible. The reading comprehension could be difficult if you do not have the vocabulary level. I think the most important tip to learn a language is the vocabulary and of course the grammar. Perhaps the previos aspects i mentioned are a complement with all the skills such as: listening, reading, speaking.
For people who are learning a second language would be difficult to learn too much vocabulary so is necessary to practice and improve daily.
I hope to learn more in this course and give all my knowledge and share it with my partners.

Some weaknesses are the attention and the comprehension; I believe that the foreign languages be learned with patience and dedication; on the other hand the reading and writing be achieved whit practice. So as to learn english we can use more exercises of reading and writing, and more strategies how use the language. To sum up to sum up i hope learn new forms for transmit the language to my future students.

ReplyDeleteHi everybody!! I´m Lorena Ramírez. I enjoy the mystery books, it’s very nice for me go to dance and I like to share with my friends. My principal hobbies are: the writing, the music, and the movies specially horror movies. I love to cook, for example dishes like: Beef, shellfish and spaghetti are my favorites. I think English is similar to cook, because you have to improve a lot of things frequently and you need to look for new things every day to increase the level. I love English and think my strengths as foreign language learner are; the pronunciation and the reading because of I like to watch movies in English and I try to put subtitles in English too, it help me to improve my pronunciation and maybe my vocabulary. On the other hand my weaknesses as English student usually are: writing and listening, the first because I don´t know some grammar and the second because sometimes I have to repeat a tape many times because I don’t understand very well.
ReplyDeleteWhen I read, I try to understand the main idea, but when I don’t know some word, I search the meaning because it’s a strategy to improve my vocabulary; in addition, I can see what the pronunciation of this word is and maybe can see an example.
To sum up, reading and writing aren’t very easy but if you spend time to practice, and use the best way to learn English, you can be better. Some simple and good strategies that I think can be useful for me to foster the language learning are: Enjoy wonderful music in English and try to understand, watch movies in English sometimes with subtitles in English too, read interesting books to increase grammar, vocabulary, and speed to read.

ReplyDeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteMy name's Erika Alejandra Sanchez Becerra, I'm 18 years old, I'm from Duitama ( I live there on vacations and weekends), during the week I live here in Tunja. My interest are music, sing and learn to play the guitar, about my hobbies are swimming, listening to music, cooking and sometimes drawing. In addition I love Hardcore music and punk rock, because not everyone hears it; just a few of us understands the message that the bands wants to show us with their lyrics, so thats why I love my kind of music.
About my english strenghts there's three sides about it, the first one is as foreing language learner, in this case is important for me improve those skills talking, listenig to english music, and listenig english programs; on the other hand is the reading honestly reading I don't have any strenghts; and about writing my strenghts are my punctuation and sometimes the easy way to express my ideas.
My weaknesses as foreing language learner are that sometimes I'm a little bit lazy studing vocabulary, as reader are that I don't use dictionary, when I'm reading I prefer to understand the unknown words associeting them, to sum up as writer my grammar sometimes fails and I confuse the words, because of those word could be seems like another ones.
My strategies are just listenig to music, and talk with my friends, and sometimes singing to practice pronunciation.
I am looking for a book, I think it was called "Calculating Cal", a wonderful counting book, braille database management and print with fabulous raised lines and shapes. Anyone know where this is?
