THINGS NON-SPANISH-SPEAKING LATINOS ARE SICK OF HEARING

I found this video hilarious because is made with a lot of humor, everything is based on respectful dialogues and believe or not there are many latinos who do not speak Spanish!

However, I consider in the real world there is a kind of discrimination, we can not be sure about something just by generalizing.

People who expect other people of latin american descent to speak Spanish fluently just based on their ethnicity are just wrong.

Your name does not determine what language you speak because there are many latinos who have children in America and they do not teach them their native language.

There out are many different life circumstances.

KEN TANAKA MEETS A CAUCASIAN JAPANESE MAN

This is a really short interview in a gallery, Ken Tanaka found a guy named David who was born and raised in Japan, they talked about the posibility that  David could suffer bullying at school in Japan because he is white.

I think this is a great topic to talk becase it is very common to see bullying at school because the way you look, your accent, your skin and irrelevant things. When I saw this video I thounght "Wow, is it possible that in Japan does not exist rascism or something? 

Much people all over the world just criticize or judge by other people apperence, that is not nice, we have to erradicate wrong ideas from our minds and meet new people because everyone has a nice story which we can hear.

5 TECHNIQUES TO SPEAK ANY LANGUAGE

Sid Efromovich speaks 7 languages and he shared his best 5 techniques to speak any language.

You can find below the following techniques with my personal point of view. 

 I agree with Sid, the first thing we have to do before start to learn a foreign language is take a very deep breathe, relax our mind and our body. 

1.  Make mistakes.

MAKE MISTAKES AND DON'T STOP TO MAKE THEM! 

This is a golden rule, nobody is perfect, every mistake helps to you because when you make mistakes it means you are doing well your job, you are trying and that is what matters.  Every mistake teaches you something new. It depends on you if you want to eliminate them.

DON'T BE AFRAID.

2. Scrap the foreign alphabet

This is one of the best techniques, you can asociate sounds of the new words you are learning with another words you know in your native language, it is a funny way to learn. You can bring to your mind imagenes that can help you to reminds the sound of a new word. Fragmenting the words you will realize how easy it can be to learn.

3. Find a stickler

It is necessary to have a good practice, you can find a classmate, a teacher, a friend. They can help you to be better, remember that if you want to speak a foreign language it is important to have someone to practice.

4. Shower convertations

This is one technique which works (100% tested)  I've tried this technique before and it really helps. Maybe you are thinking this is a ridiculous technique and guess what? Yes, it can be if you are just reading this! I invite you to do this technique. 

Nothing can compares with this feeling, you are in private, it is not depending on something or on someone. You are your own judge.

You can sing in shower, you can practice a language as well. WHY NOT? 

5. Buddy formula

This is the last technique, for me, the best way to learn a foreing languge is by listening and by speaking so... Where do you really do those actions? Yes, in a conversation! Practicing with a partner is really awesome. Practice everywhere. 

You can turn the language you are learning into a secret language which you can use in public with someone.

PRACTICE, PRACTICE!

COMMENTARY ABOUT READING EXERCISES

This is my opinion about some reading excercises I did in my English class.

The teacher corrected my grammar, this is a kind of evidence, I think I didn't make many mistakes but I'm aware about them and I'm sure this is not going to happen again! ;)

Learning Styles Results

Those are my results. According to the explanation of the website: http://www4.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/ILSdir/styles.htm I have my skills balanced.

I think this test is very helpful to improve in my skills, on one hand, I prefer to learn by pictures because that is the form I can remember more things, on the other hand I'm open to learn by follow steps or instructions.

I like to learn facts as well as therories, I consider myself patient using visual methods or verbal methods. I don't mind which one is better than the other.
