Two interesting videos

My English teacher recommended see two videos.

The first video is "Ken Tanaka meets a Caucasian Japanese man". In this video two men talk about their experience like Caucasian Japanese person. Apparently Ken Tanaka was adopted for a Japanese family, while David was born in Japan. Ken asks David if he was suffered bullying during his childhood and David said no. An important point is that they think the Half-Japanese suffer more bullyng because they are not completly Japanese.

The second video “Things non-Spanish Speaking Latinos are sick of hearing” is a parody about many situations that Latinos who don’t speak Spanish daily living and how other Latinos react whit them. I think you mustn’t forget your entity and it’s good you try to know it. But sometimes the conditions are different, so the rest of people must try to understand you and not prejudice you.

Corrections

Yesterday in my English class made questions for a guest who will come the next wednesday.

So this are the question and corrections:

The main errors were:

• The - Is a definite article. We most use before names of some contries/territories. Ex: the United States.
• Capital letters - We most use for languages and nationalities. Ex: Mexican, Spanish.

Tips to learn languages

For my English class I saw a video about tips to learn new languages.

The first recommendation is "Make mistakes". Many times we feel bad when we don't know if our pronunciation is right and the insecurity increase. Also when we learn a new language learn new sounds, so we need to make mistakes to improve our sounds databases.

The second recommendation is "Scrap the foreing alphabet". We must try to find a similitude in the pronunciation of the word with sounds that we know and don't try to read the words literally.

The third recomendation is "Find a stickler". We must find someone who oriented our learning and feel comfortable when correct us and in the same way we feel good.

The next recommendation is "Shower conversation". We can have conversations with ourselfs and take both roles. In this way you can find your gaps and correct.

The last recommendation is "Budd Formula". We try to find a buddy with whom have conversations to practice.

I think not exist a "formula" which you can learn better or faster a new languages. You can try this recommendations, but the important is that you can find your own learning methods.

"So" or "Such"?

In my English class saw some examples of Such and So. Here are the phrases that we practiced in class:

• It is/was such a/an adjetive + noun that...
• The noun was so adjetive that...

My Learning Style

Today I answered a test about what is my learning style and this are my results:

According to the scale I am balanced on "Active and Reflective learning", however I have a preference for Reflective learning, consequently I prefer think first and do later.

The next learning dinensions are "Sensing and Intuitive". Here I am moderated but I have preference for Intuitive learning, so I like the innovations and fast work, 

Then we have "Visual and Verbal learning". Again I am balanced but I have a preference to Verbal learning therefore I remember best when I see or listen words.

Finally we have "Sequential and Global learning". In this dimension I am more balanced and I have a small preference to Sequential learning thus I'll learn better if I follow steps in logicall form to find solutions.
