Always the same!!

Our quality of education is getting worst. This crisis is very old; governments tried to improve that situation. I am not going to talk about the actual presidential administration. I do not want to be a critic guy, but as everybody, I am not a blind. To be really honest, we have to admit; for these days Education is a very well pay business. The worst thing is the results, still being bad, very bad indeed.

According to I read in the article, I saw a very good solution to improve the Education, I mean, the system; this would be to select people (with the best results in PSU) in order to get better teachers and this way to get better results in our poor education.

(To Study)There are two possibilities, get good results in PSU or have a lot of money to study (college, University). What about if you do not have none of them? It is simple, you are dead. In my case I did not have a good education (at school), anyway I used to study a lot, so that I got an ordinary (600points) results in PSU. Many people want to study, but the can not do that, why? Because is very very expensive to get a place in any university. Nowadays the biggest problem is the business in education, no money no study!


Many teachers got very bad marks in different areas of education, which is simple; the teaching has not been good (in our training), now maybe the situation has improved, but the way is very long. We are going to be part of that change (to improve it), bur first, politics must be push them away of their position. This crisis (Education) is not only problem of the area (teachers, students), this is a national issue. For these days, improve that will be impossible; for the president everything is a business, sadly including the Education.

BBC World Learning English

Improve our English skills is very important actually. From the internet we can find many pages where you can practice with; vocabulary, listening, writing exercises. To be honest, I visited BBC Learning English, and I really believe that page is very good; I found different videos, also a lot of quizzes (most of them very hard). The best thing that I saw, it was the “tips” part; there are many advices how to improve our pronunciation.

In the page I saw many English News from the all the planet. It was funny, I found some news about Chilean president (I hate him). The journalists do not know how pathetic can be Piñera, however, it was really interesting to see many news of the “world Cup” that is just around the corner (how the miss always says).

I checked some episodes of “face up to phrasals” (Bob and Jackie’s chemistry project). This was really helpful, I mean, these kinds of exercises are very good to learn phrasal verb and that kind of things. In the end, I listen some examples about “funky phrasals” used in parties. I am going to add BBC Learning English page, to my favourite pages on Firefox.
