English Didactics Week XV


Online classes continue, I do not like this, but it is what it is. We kept learning a lot.

This week we learned about teaching and also of one of my worst enemies, yes, I am talking about grammar. As a probably future teacher I have to master teaching and grammar really good, so that's what I had the opportunity to learn about in this week. 

Mainly focused in two approaches, learning inductively and deductively. It's really nice to know this kind of information, it is also important. That was it for the first session. 

-----------------------------------------------

The second session took place also in a very calm a welcoming place, zoom. We kept learning more interesting facts about how to teach grammar, it is nice to find out that grammar can be taught or learned in a little less stressing way. The types of input the teacher uses are key, some materials that are not even meant for teaching purposes can be used, and that could help a student learn better.

English Didactics DC Week 1

   English didactics blog!  Welcome to this blog!  My name is David Cristales, I am a 21 years old guy and a translation and interpretation student  (this is my last year!) . Here you will find some reviews about what am I going to learn throughout this whole year 2025. I really enjoy talking a lot and sharing random facts sometimes, so at least for me this is a fun activity. I love playing videogames, I am trying to start with the habit of reading, sometimes I would play the guitar for a couple of hours, but then forget that I have one for months, it is what it is...

English Didactics Week VI

 Week number VI is midterms week.  Not a fun week for most of the students, but we cannot get rid of it. In this week we reviewed a little about all the teaching methods we have studied until the day and in order to carry on this, the class was separated in groups to create presentations with each method. The method I and my classmates presented was the Direct Method, at the end of this presentation there was an activity for the whole class.  Unfortunately I do not have much pictures about this and the only ones that exist are some in which I do not appear, but I am 100% sure that I was there.

English Didactics week II

Week 2  In this week I was not in college, I had the opportunity to participate as an interpreter volunteer at  ASAPROSAR in a visual campaign, this place is in Santa Ana. Some of my peers and I went to this place and we had to stay there.  This experience was wonderful. I helped with interpretations in visual exams, appointments and the greatest opportunity I had was being able to go into the operating room and see some of the surgeries. I learned a lot of new vocabulary, things that would have never crossed my mind, words that I did not even know that existed.  Getting to help people is one of the most gratificant things in life. Some people even cried when they realized they could get to see again. That was awesome!  Friends and some new ones... "El que no vive para servir, no sirve para vivir"  - I do not know who said this
