English Language Challenges

When I discovered that I had to do this course at the beginning I didn't want to do it but then my dad convinced me telling me that at least it would be good for practicing, after a couple of lessons I realized that he was right.

When you don't use an ability for some time you usually lose it, and when that ability is speaking or writing English you are probably in a problem. Even if some people say that English is not completely necessary in life there would always be a subject that requires your knowledge in this language, especially at uni. So for me having this class wasn't a waste of time, I actually enjoyed it. 

Being honest some aspects that I should improve about my English are pronunciation, fluently speaking and some grammatical things like words that I don't know. About pronunciation I still confuse some words with similar sounds, but I know that the only way to improve it is practicing with someone that knows how to pronounce them and could correct me. The same happens with fluency.

Outside the class I don't use English as much as I would like. I'm a little bit shy so when I speak it I usually do it with a friend that knows me from years. About reading and listening I try to do it as much I can but with uni it is almost impossible unless about saliva things -.- Anyways I enjoy learning this language, it’s beautiful, maybe even more than Spanish J

What I would change

We've been in this career for almost a year so now we are able to talk about what we think  about the uni  and the career. There is a lot of things that I would change but there are another that I think are nice. I'm going to start with the ones that I would definitely change.

In the past some people told me that odontology wasn't as exigent as other health careers but once in here I discovered that it was REALLY  hard! We had tests almost every day, the study load is huge (and social life disappears a little bit more every day that pass) and that makes everybody really stressed which doesn't guarantee learning all we have to learn. I would like that to change because learning this things ,even in first year, is important for our professional future.
Another subject that I don't like is the space of the faculty. I know we are a small number of student comparing with others faculties but we only have Machu Pichu as a recreational space and (at least for me) having a place were you can rest 5 minutes after a long class or a test is important, almost escential, so I would definetly change that, I don't know where we could get that space but dreaming is free hahaha
From the other side I like how the uni started to include more subjects related with dentistry. I know that in other universities they have to wait a couple of years more than us to start  seeing it from the more practical side, so I feel a little bit fortunate that them. But it wouldn't be bad having more time for practising :)

Here is a picture of Machu where you can
see the abundant amount of grass hahaha
