Foreign language 3rd semester

 

On Monday I went to my afternoon communication class. In that communication class we were in an explanation about etiquette when eating, how to order food, sit down, cutlery to use, etc. After that explanation we saw some that the teacher told us to see in advance which I watched responsibly as the good student that I am lol. At the end of the class the teacher left us an activity to do which asked us to table etiquette, utensil usage, a drama presenting a situation in a restaurant, and a review about the restaurant.  On Tuesday I attended my communication class which involved watching a series that our teacher Luisina asked us to watch so that later we could answer a series of questions regarding the series based on practicing our vocabulary and learning new words and expressions. Lately that  class, I went to the Smartfit gym. I noticed that my strength has decreased significantly since I haven't worked out in months.

This week was not so interesting since most days I did not have classes due to the cultural week that takes place at the university which tries to support different endeavors, dances, activities and concerts.

Entering the context in any region or country, we will realize the evolution of the way parents have raised their children has had compared to the way they do it now.

4TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INNOVATIVE PRACTICES AND RESEARCH IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING  by Juan Contreras  

 On Monday I did not attend class due to personal problems. On Tuesday in my communication class we had to do an essay regarding a video that apparently we saw the day before. Not attending on Monday did not prevent me from doing an essay on that video called Memory Banda: A Warrior’s Cry Against Child Marriage | TED.  On Wednesday I did not have in-person classes. The only fun thing was going to the Sushi-High restaurant to record the communication video. Still, the sushi was good.
