Beginner A, Post 1, 'My Auto Biography'

 Warm Salutations, Earthlings from FACSO


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: 

 - Birth info 
- Studies info (Elementary/High school/University) 
- Family Info 
- Hobbies 
- Others... (pics for example) 
  
> Number of words: 120 (minimum) 
> Make comments on three of your classmates' posts + a comment on your teacher post as well. 
  
I am leaving here my sample post for you to read, 
  
"Hello to you all prospective Psychologists, Sociologists, Anthropologists, Early Childhood Educators.
  
 Since he was first born about 30 something years ago, 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".

    I'm impressed by the way this language is interesting for you until the point that you studied two careers that involve it.

Beginner A, Post 2, 'Why did you choose this study program?'

  Warm Salutations, Earthlings from FACSO 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 in the end   - your experience at the university until now   - the kind of job you would like to have    > word count: 130 words    > don't forget to leave comments on  3 of your classmates' posts  and on  your teacher's post as well.     As usual, I leave a sample post for you to make fun of or to take it 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 myse...

Beginner A, Post 3, 'Your Favourite piece of technology'

  Write about your favourite piece of technology Say:  What it is. When you got it. How you use it. How often you use it. Why you like it. What life would be like without it. - 140 words minimum. As usual, I leave my sample entry for you to take it as a writing model -if you want to, of course- My favourite piece of technology is paper. No, I am not crazy, and I do not want to pull your leg. It is for real. Paper has almost always been there for us, I mean, ‘us’ as humanity. So, concerning my lifetime, I have been dealing with paper my whole life. Paper has multiple functionalities, so there would be a little difficult for me to name them all. For some reason I still do not understand, paper is a wonderful piece of edible material – meaning that you can eat it – at least when I was a little boy. To a certain extent, paper also serves as a beautiful media to put your thoughts on. Also, you can make sculptures out of paper, and that would be called ‘origami’, the art of making t...
