My experience in English at the university has been good, although I feel I have not learned much in these three semesters that I take in English classes. And it is because there is a great burden in our respective careers and adding English becomes even heavier, and one does not devote the necessary time to learn and enjoy, I would love that it was not obligatory and that we had the freedom to choose it, because there would be a motivation to learn it, because many of us do not have that motivation, although we are aware that English is very necessary for our professional work, but as it is mandatory, we do not enjoy it and we only worry about passing it with the minimum grade. That is why it should be optional for us to learn it by personal motivation and not because it is something that the university imposes on you.

Blogs have been a good tool to learn, and in some way they also express our ideas and know each other.

My English must also improve. I still feel that I am a beginner, I think I have to improve my understanding and my hearing in English. Those are the weakest points I have, and I think I can improve them by doing exercises from the platform or listening to music in English, but this I would do on vacation because I will have more time.

In everyday life I do not use English very much, I only use it when it is strictly necessary, since the scientific texts are sent in English and you have to read them, and when I listen to songs and try to sing them.

The changes that could be made in the study program. The truth is that the program, in general, is fine, but still has some deficiencies in its subjects because having a universal nature in the presentation of psychology, makes it difficult to distribute the topics that cover this universality of career or stamp that you won't give the university
In this sense, I consider that there are topics that require more than a semester, but since the study program is constructed, it is difficult to establish it.
The academic load, in general, is not heavy but the bad one that always in the last weeks of the semester concentrates all the tests and deliveries of work and that makes it overwhelming.
In relation to the infrastructure, the corridors of the old facso building, the chairs are very uncomfortable, since you have to sit for three hours and the rooms are very small to have an average of forty or more people. That would change. The truth has shown that having so many students in a room does not guarantee good learning for all and that in the university should not happen, I think it is necessary to reduce the time load of the subjects and reduce the number of students per room, and this could make sure everyone learned. And in some way, it would be less burden for the student because it would be more profitable at the time of the subject and perhaps would not need the assistantships that take up a lot of time. Or simply use them in specific cases.
The use of technologies, actually in the classes are some teachers who use technology to teach something, but it is important that they can be used, times have changed and it is necessary to adapt and use these new tools as teaching methods, classes expositions are not the only options. Although this is not only a problem of the university but a problem in the educational system of Chile. : ((((((((

What is your opinion about women in the military?
My opinion about women in the army is that I think they are very brave to be in a markedly masculine and macho place. That's why I feel a lot of respect for them because it's hard to have to prove to society that you are equal or better than a man and break the image they have about women that we are weak and delicate.

What is your opinion about owning an exotic pet?
From my point of view I consider that exotic animals should not live as pets because I feel that we damage their own nature, although there are animals that are raised from very young with people, I feel that it is not the best for them because their nature is to be free.

What is your opinion about recycling?
My opinion about recycling is that it is very important for the world and it is necessary that we all can become aware of this issue because it is a way to reduce the damage we do to the planet. And so that the new generations can enjoy a beautiful nature and everything that implies: animals, trees, etc.

What is your opinion about child labor?
From my point of view, I believe that child labor is a shame for society in which even today children can not study or simply enjoy their childhood because of adults and the government that do not care about safeguarding your integrity as children. I believe that it is a very important issue in which we must all take charge of this reality and try to eradicate these forms of exploitation towards minors.
