About the personal topics, I can to say… I´m something maverick or dissident, not so much realy... but a little distanced from normal reality. My targets are different respect other people. I´m some little NERD and with a huge interest for to learn English, once and for all.

c. Answer the questions
1. How can English help you in your
personal development? English has been very important in my personal
development because in my works, my studies and in very different situations
and environments. I have been able to resolve those situations, understand user
manuals, learning songs; I have able to help others too. And my
general culture knowledge is stronger than other people, and this provide me
some advantage and a better personal status.
2. Is English important in your career?
If so, why? I believe it´s very important. I´m not only an artist, I have to
work like Computer technical support, and in this environment you have to know
“obligatory” some minimum of English. But in the present I have taken the
decision to give a radical turn only for the arts way, and I want going
building the respective recognition here in Colombia, and maybe beyond, out of
the country. Why not, I feel I can get it!
I have a dream (ehhhh) I would like to go to NY, the big apple… someday,
someday.
3. Do you think the syllabus of this
course is going to help you to improve yourEnglish? I have read the syllabus, I
think is important go moving to the globalized world, this is imminent. And the
UNAD is offering this to their students, for instance: the individual and group
activities and interaction, the orientation and guide on line. Are important too, the progressive learning,
develop skills to listen and the writing and comprehension. And specially
develop skills for the natural situations and real topics on the real and
present world. I believe so.
4. Which of the topics from the
syllabus is familiar for you? I believe, that the main topics are the basic
learning really, because I have an acceptable level of pre knowledge and this
have able to me for to have an easy learning process, here at the UNAD
environment, and also I´m in homologation mode for the SENA agreement, and this
let me validate two levels of English.
However II can adapt, my capacities, to the required model. It’s not a problem.
5. How has your English learning
experience been? It has been a long
experience, really. I´m sure may
facility for learning English come… since my kindergarten days, I remember and
I had the huge fortune to go to a bilingual little school. I remember the
Gimnacio Bella Suiza in Bogotá. But,,, very much years after of this, I had to
live in different cities of Colombia, all my life. Different schools, different
cultures (this is real, in Colombia we are not the same people, and we are very
different) Ok, the secondary for my English was not so fortunate. But with the
years I get my own personal interest for this universal language, and return to
my kindergarten songs, and my blond beautyfull teacher, it haves allowed me to
make easier, my English skills development. Although sometimes I look like a
crazy parrot.
d. Make a recording in English describing
how you feel about this course and how it
contributes to your professional or
personal goals.
First I
have to tell you that my English pronunciation, really, is not the best… also.
And this is an special situation I have a medical condition on my voice with
seriously difficulties to pronounce letters like S C X Z,,, and others. But so, ill going to try to make the
activity.
About how
you feel… I have to say i´m feeling good, I believe and understand the big
importance of the present course. Is a
great opportunity for to continue the process of development our English skills.
I think the main contribution is make strong
the competences or skills necessaries for to get advantage and better
opportunities in this globalized world… or at least, for achieve a similar
level to people who speak this language,
how a basic requirement nowdays.
And anyway,
speak, write, read and understand english it’s like a presentation card, this
provide a very significant plus for our skills and for our personal status too.
In this way
the course is a big contribution for grow the necessary knowledge for get our
goals.
