English Language Challenges

Hi everyone! Nowadays knowing English is a necessary requirement, since it is the universal language, it is fundamental when looking for a job and much of the important information is in that language My relationship with English is of love and hate, because is a language that I would like to talk and understand perfectly but learn this language is difficult for me, maybe because I don’t practice constantly. I think it's very important that in the universities they teach us English. In the university I have learned a lot of this language, besides writing blogs help me to know new vocabulary and improve my writing. Although sometimes I did not dedicate much time to this subject, because I gave priority to my other subjects and I really regret it because to learn a new language it is very important to be constant and practice it periodically One of the hardest things to do for me, is to write in English, because I get confused a lot with grammar and I don’t know much...

Changes to my study program

Hello everyone! I never thought I would study dentistry at the University de Chile because I thought it was unattainable and I think it is a great opportunity to have entered this university that is the best in the área I know that studying at this university opens many opportunities for me in the future because of its prestige and I love studying dentistry, I do not regret my choice, even if it is sometimes very stressful. I know that I have very good teachers and experts in the field, who teach me the most up-to-date information so that we are good professionals. But not everything in this faculty is good and I think there are some things that should change. I think it is very important to have a good place to study and the dental school has very poor infrastructure, there are very few auditoriums, the casino is small for all students and the library is also very small and with very few study rooms. In addition, the preclinical are very poorly equipped, which makes learn...

SUMMER HOLIDAYS

Summer holidays are coming, my favorite time of the year because I don't have to study and I can sleep as much as I want. It's a time to rest and let go of all the worries of the university and also to recharge our energy. Usually my summer days consist of going to bed late and sleeping a lot, I also like to watch series, one of my favorite hobbies, because during the year I don't  have much time to watch series because I have to study a lot. I also like to swim in pools to cool off on hot days and also to tan because I love having my skin brown, obviously I try not to expose myself much to the sun and protect my skin with a lot of sunscreen. Every year with my friends we organize a trip to the beach, specifically to Pichilemu because it is the closest beach to where we live and this year will not be the exception. We usually rent a cabin and we stayed for 4 days, it is very entertaining because I share with my friends, we spend almost all day on the beach and at night...

My favourite picture

Hello everyone!  In this post I’m going to talk about a photo that I like. This photo I like so much because I’m with my family: my parents (Jacqueline and Gerardo) and my two sisters, Nadia (my big sister) and Noelia (my little sister). I also like this photo because we do not have many photos were we all appear together, because my parents do not like photos very much. This photo was taken by my cousin this September 18th in Pampa de Lima, a hill that is where I live. Pampa de Lima is a place that is visited by many people at national holidays because there are typical food stands, live music and traditional games like rayuela. Also many people make their roast, raise kites or climb the hill Every year with my family, we go to the Pampa de Lima and I like it a lot, because September 18th is a special date and everyone is happy and enjoying. I also like to go there because it is a good occasion to share with my family, because we don’t see each other very often. My p...

Postgraduate studies

Hello ! As I said in other posts I would like to be pediactric dentist. Pediactric dentist is a specialty dedicaded to the oral health of children and teenagers.  A pediatric dentist job is to care children’s teeth, gums, and mouth. Also has the responsibility to prevent any pathology or alteration and correct them in time. This is a speciality that I like so much because is very important to take care of our tooth in the early years considering that there are many children with cavities and bad habits, problems over the years are more common because of poor education and knowledge about the importance of good oral health. The most likely if I do postgraduate studies, I would do them in Chile, but it's not a bad idea to go study abroad and learn another culture and another language, besides studying abroad is a very good experience .  Today there are many dentists in the country, for this reason it is more important to do a postgraduate study, because dentis...
