Post 5 : My future job

Resultado de imagen para future job


Hello everyone : Nowadays when the topic of education as a means of social mobility  and all the implications of that fact, have been seriously questioned, analysed , and discussed , I think it is inevitable to relate education with future jobs, with your expectations about positions, jobs, salaries, types of work , etc When I was  at school I always wanted to work with English as a translator or an interpreter. However, the year I had to enter the university,  the career of Translation was closed. I was totally lost because it was the only one I liked. Then I decided to enter English Teaching at PUC  in order to change careers internally. How naive I was at 17 !!! It was impossible in practice. Desperate this time, I received the best advice from a teacher: " As a translator, you can't work as a teacher, but as a teacher you can work as a translator anywhere".  As easy as that! That's exacly what I've done in my professional development.  What about  you? what  have you thought about  it? For example, have you  planned to take a major after you graduate?  Explain why. What kind of job would you like to have? Describe it.What aspects would you consider  when choosing your job? If you were asked in a job interview about your strengths and weaknesses, what would you say? Use 210 words and don´t forget to leave comments on 3 of your partners posts.
See you in classes! Bye

Post 4 : Themed Post 2: Climate Change




Resultado de imagen para COP25 in english
Hi bloggers: Today's post   is about one of the topics you chose:  Climate change , which just as we commented last class, is    an evident phenomenon  present in different parts of the world more and more violently. We can see very heavy rains in places that have been usually deserts ,  or  just the opposite,  very severe droughts in areas that used to be very rainy.  The main point is how to reverse this climate change, what people can do to stop it or reverse it  if that's still  possible.  Developed countries  must get  involved in any plan to overcome  or stop climate change, since they are an important source of  pollutants in the planet. I personally hope this Climate Change Conference (COP25) can get to  some agreements that lead to specific policies to reverse this damage to the planet. What about you?  How do you feel about the future of the  planet? What do you think about possible solutions ?   Word count : 200 words. Don't forget to leave your comments on my blog and 3 of your classmates'ones.
