English 3, Post 1, 'Who am I?'

 Warm Salutations, Earthlings from FCQF


This is the very first post activity, and you will have to write about your own biography, that is to say, your autobiography. You will be asked to do the following classwork that should include: 

 - Who are you? 
- Where are you from? 
- Tell us about yourself 
- Tell us a little bit about your family and hometown (the place you were born and raised) 
- Others (optional)... (pictures for example) 
  
> Number of words: 120 (minimum) 
> Make comments on three of your classmates' posts (optional) + a comment on your teacher post as well (compulsory)
  
I am leaving here my sample post for you to read, 
  
"Hello to you all,
  
 Since he was first born about 34 years ago in Santiago de Chile, René Larenas was a boy who studied at Oratorio Don Bosco, a school run by the Catholic Church in Santiago. Then, by the time of high school, he applied and entered a municipal institution, better known as “Liceo A-0” or “Instituto Nacional” where he spent his worst years until he graduated in 2004. 

At University, René studied English Pedagogy at UMCE where he graduated in 2010 both as a “Licenciado en Educación Mención Inglés” and a teacher of English as a foreign language (TEFL). Also, he took his teaching duties very seriously and entered University for a second undergraduate program at U de Chile called: 
“Licenciatura en Lengua y Literatura Inglesas” where he graduated in 2016. Now, he is applying for a postgraduate program at U de Chile on English Linguistics. 

René lives on his own and visits his parents regularly for advice; he has two sisters, Valentina and Carla. Valentina studies at U de Chile and Carla at U de Concepción. 
Finally, Rene enjoys listening to music and cycling, two of his dearest hobbies in life. Well, not particularly now. 

Thanks for reading, 

Regards".

  Dear Earthlings from FCQF! Tell us why and how what you study ( your major ) can make the world a better place.  Include this information: ·          How can your major affect the world? ·          How can you see yourself in this process? ·          What makes your major something that contributes to the world’s benefit? Make comments on 3 of your classmates’ posts  +  a comment on your teacher's post Word Count:  150 words As usual, I will leave you with this week's sample entry from my own study programs ('English Literature' and Linguistics' and 'English Pedagogy'), No. I think English Linguistics, Literary Studies and Pedagogy do not straightforwardly affect the world at all. No. Linguistics and Literary Studies are not going to save us from any natural force or danger. Linguistics is a science of language and only committed to describing it. Literary Studies only represents, nowadays, intellectual escapism and nothing else, unfortunately.  T

English 3, Post 2, 'Why did I choose my major (study program)?'

  Warm Salutations, Earthlings from FCQF In this week, you are expected to write about,   - your dream jobs when you were a child   - other career options that you had at the moment of applying to university   - what made you decide on this major?   - your experience at the university until now      > word count:  130 words    >  don't forget to leave comments on  3 of your classmates' posts (optional ) and on  your teacher's post as well (compulsory).     As usual, I leave a sample post for you to make fun of or to take as a starting point for your own written work,   Since I was a  child,  I did not think about getting a job or dreaming –daydreaming, perhaps- about getting a job. I did not contemplate the idea of an ideal job because it simply did not exist in my childish world. I was really into video games, soccer, and cycling. Now, that I think of it, I never imagined myself making money out of playing video games or playing soccer. I thought they were onl
