Governments hosting international events to promote tourism helps them to growth its economy and to get know by the world.

          Hosting international events is beneficial for countries because it helps them to increase their economic growth. And It also helps local cultures to get well-know, making people know about them, and to preserve its culture.

             Countries that organized big events such as "copa america" or the "olympic games" helps the country to increase their economy growth. When people go to these events, they start  wasting their money buying souvenirs, gifts, etc. helping the country to doesn't  loose the economic cycle. This cycle is very important due to is the base for the country being stable. Tourism is a very important factor that helps the country to be stable in economic terms.

        

             In addition to this, the boost of tourism will help local cultures to get known, and to make the country connected to the world. There are some cultures that are not known, they are dying slowly, and is totally sad because we are not going to know about their culture, For example, in Chile some cultures disappear or some of them are getting smaller in number, and there are a huge number of children that don't know about them, or they only know about them through books, videos, etc. Tourism will help these local cultures besides to preserve their culture, it will make people know about those cultures, also about the country itself.

          The activity of visiting countries and to know some local cultures host the country's' economy,  helps the country to have an important space in the world, and to keep the culture through the time.

Tourism is harmful to the environment

          Many people probably think that tourism is a good way to support the country's economy, but none all of us know that tourism has many environmental impacts that are harmful for our natural environment.

          Tourism can be entertaining, and you can have a nice leisure time with your family, but while we are having are having fun, nature not, due to the fact that tourism elicit depletion of natural resources. First, water is one of the most critical resources, tourism indiscriminate use this natural resources. Second, tourism incite land degradation. Consequently, the construction of builts environment causes that land resources such as minerals, fossil fuels, fertile soil, etc. disappear. This activity can be beneficial for something, but is harmful for natural environment.

          Tourism can affect in a positive and negative way local cultures. A positive way would be that many local cultures are known nowadays, and people can know and learn about those cultures, as well as tourism helps to preserve these cultures, Nonetheless, tourism also affects these cultures due to the lose of their identity, values because of several other cultures influences. This means that local cultures can lose their language or some of their activities that represents their culture. For example, some cultures lost natural techniques to cure diseases, etc.

          To conclude, tourism can be harmful to the environment in terms of the indiscriminate use of natural resources. Furthermore, tourism can affect in a positive and negative way local cultures by helping them to become well-known, or losing  their identities.

Blog post n° 10

         The contents that we worked in the writting class were very interesting and very helpful to improved our writting. For me it was very difficult and disappointed too because, in almost  all the blogs I couldn't approved all the things that the teacher asked me to do. I learnd a lot on how to do a very good paragraph, but I have to improved a lot my writting, I'm still having problem however I'm still learning, so it will take a while. The best post for me it was the n° 4/5 about the insurances, it is the best for me because, Daniela helped me a lot and I did it very well,  I was very satisfied of that blog. The blogs that I liked the least were blog post n° 2 and 3, because they were awful, in neither I followed the structure, it was so difficult to be because, I don't like to write in structures, I like to write a lot without rules, so for me, I didn't like the writting class because, I always have all wrong and that gets me very disappoint about me. I think that my writting skills improved a little bit but despite I'm still having some very big mistakes on everything. Finally In the future, I would like to write about the good and bad things that each of us have, write about ourselves. This class was very attractive but, also very hard to follow, we have to take advantage of this class, in the future will  be very helpful for us.

Blog post°9 What core skills are necessary to have when applying for a job of a teacher ?

          The skills that all teacher should have are the vocation and the passion of what they are doing.

          Become a teacher is a hard task, but if a person really love teach and have the habilities to make students come more interested about it is the vocation. This hability is the most important in teachers because of that ,the knowledge that teachers are releacing, students will get it more easy. Vocation imply many skills of good teaching. For example we have some teachers that enchant students and they feel the passion and the enthusiasm of the teacher. The most important skills of good teaching are vocation and passion.

          Another important capibility is the dedication to make a nice environment in the class for students. Teachers should be entertained and relation story telling about the topic of the class. Also they should be innovative and come with different techniques of teaching. Doing that, students get more interested about the class. Having a good atmosphere in the classroom is a plus point for teachers to get students' attention.

          In addition, teachers must have the hability to be patient and have a good voice tone, with this students don't get sleepy during the class and they will have the confidence if the teacher is patient with them. Some teachers get angry when students ask questions about the class, and this is not good because they are teaching something new to the students. The voice tone is very important too because thanks to that, you can have the attention of the students. If you have a boring voice tone, students will don't pay attention and maybe they will get sleepy and not interested about the class. Patient and voice tone are other important skills to be a good teacher.

          Teachers will have a good development if they love what they are doing, in other words having vocation and passion.

Blog No 7/8 - School v/s University life

          University change the life of students because it is a different institution and also and mature.

          First of all we have a quite difference in the learning environment. Teachers are less concerned if the students are don't paying attention or if they are doing something else, of course not all the teachers are like that. Also we have the classrooms, at school  you only have one classroom and teachers had to go to the classrooms. In addition we have the amount of students in each classroom, we can have more or less students than school, it  depends of the career. We have a diversity of changes in each institution.

          Second we have the social life that in university changes a lot because of the maturity, we are older and we have differents types of interests things. At school you were so happy because on weekends you had many entertaining things to do. At university this changes, maybe you you have to study the hole weekend because you have an inportant test next week or you have party. The other thing is that we are more likely to try new products that are not good for our body, fos example, drugs, alcohol, etc. At university we have different things to do than school.

          Third we have the clothe that you have to use to go to university. At school you only have to use an uniform everyday, but now at university we don't have to use it. In schools  they tried to makes us get used to the uniform, so when we have to work the uses of uniform will be not hard for us, and we are in the hole years of school wanted to use different clothe. In university you have to go without uniform, so it is really hard if you don't have enough clothe, so you started to get stress everyday. Here the situation changes, at school you only want to dress different types of clothe, at university you only want to; have enough clothe, so people don't start talking about that jeans that you were using for a hole week, or have an uniform, maybe we only choose to have more clothe. The use of different types of clothe makes studens stress.

          When people who get into the university have different types of interests they are more old, they don't are children any more of course, but the amount of years that they spent in a institution with the same rules, it is hard for them get used to in a program that changes at least all the rules that were in school.

Blog post n° 6 Global environmental issue.

          Global warming is the cause of the climate changes that we have had lately and we are responsible for that issue.

          There are two main reasons that produce the global warming, in both the man is responsible for this. First we have a variety of gases that humans emit. For example we have the combustion of fuels in cars. This gas "CO2" is the main culprit of global warming. Second, deforestation also causes global warming, forests help us to eliminate the CO2 in the atmosphere but because of that, the gas is accumulating in the air. As we can be seen, the human is the key player of global warming.

          To avoid this problem the initiative has to come by individual actions and the government. In the first place, the people should start using bicycles instead of using cars. Doing that is going to create less CO2 gas in the environment. The other thing is that the government should have laws and serious punishment for people whos produce actions that create this issue. The government should focus on the companies that contaminate the most. The man and the authorities of every country should analyze and worry about this catastrophe.

          The humanity is the answerable of this disaster that is provoking big problems in the world.

Blog Post n* 4/5

          In chile, if you want to get a good insurance, you have to pay a lot of money.

          The best health coverage in chile are the private ones and they are expensive. The most commons ways to get a medical care in Chile are Fonasa and the Isapres. The last one is a private health insurance system and is always better than the public. If you want to get a private system, you have to earn about $ 1 million per month working as employees. The 7% of the employee's salary is taken and delivered to any of the 6 private health insurance companies. Fonasa also applies for private clinics, but is more frequent for people who earns less than $ 1 million and in  public hospitals. The isapres medicare in Chile are overpriced.

          The health insurance's prices get higer depending on the situation. If you are a older person or you have to add family members and also being a woman, the prices of your coverage will be more expensive. If you are a 20 years old single male person, living in providencia, you will have three possible plans in the health care system, the premius range in price from 2.84 to 3.01 UF. To get the premius range, the person would earn 1,055,100 CLP so the 7% of their pay will cover the premius range. This situation is making people disagree about the isapres to sernac. Medical cover rices their quotes if you have a diffrent condition.

          For you to have a excellent medical cover in Chile, you requiere a solid salary to suported.

Blog Post N° 3 The Role of Music in my life.

          The music has a very important space in my life, because the music helps me to get relax all the time and it is a good company when I'm alone or feeling alone. I'm always listening to music, because I like it. The other thing is that  I feel influenced whit the music that i hear and sometimes also indentified with the lyrics of the song or the sounds that the song has. For me, the music is very helpful to think and it is very good to join it when you are alone.

          I prefer listen to music because i'm a very nervous person, so that makes me forget many things, and the most important thing is that i don't know how to play an isntrument. I have many of them in my house, but I have never learned how to play it. For that reason i just like listen the music, because i get more concentrated about the lyrics of the song and the sound of it.

She arrived in Chile one week before start the school, so it was very difficult for her get used to this new country. At in the first day of school, she was a very reserved person, she liked to be alone always, but that change when my friends and I started to ask the diffrences of her country and chile.

          She said that many people told her that chilean people was selfish, another thing was that here we were very mean with the people from perú. The food in chile was lackluster for her, in her country they used to eat food very seasoned. She also said that Santiago was a beautiful city, and bigger than his city, lima. 

          But she said that prefer his country, ofcourse, she born there. But she still living  in santiago. And she is studying too. After known her, my view changed a lot, and if we are from other country, we must help and making feel comfortable those people.

Blog Post No. 1 Autobiography

Hi dear classmates,

          I was born and I grew up in Santiago, Chile. One day, my mom decided to have kids. That is how my sister and I were born on the 8 of september 1995. When my dad heard the news, he almost died of a heart attack, because we were two girls. He was expecting just one baby. I have four siblings, we are five in total. I have two brothers and two sisters. My two brothers doesn't like too much the news, I think that they got a little bit jealous. After we were born, they started to love us and being very nice brothers, till today.

          All my schoolar ship was in the same school, it was a religious school, it was called " Colegio Santa Isabel de Hungría " It was located very near of my house, so in just 2 minutes arrived in the school, but most of the time I was always getting late to the class. Now I'm studying to be a english teacher at the Andres Bello University.

          In my spare time I like to go to the cinema, eat a lot of candys and chocolate, go out most of the time with my boyfriend and my friends. I also like sleep a lot in my leasure time and see movies in the TV.

          My expectations of this course is, learn a lot of contents of english and have (I hope) a very good marks. And also, not getting nervous of everything. And made very good friends! <3
