Problems in education-

We all know that education it’s an important topic for our society, since a long time ago people starting to debate about this, but Why its education a subject so important? I really think that a good education is a human right and has many relevance because the education it’s the base of the life, I mean that the big social differences are (in many cases) provoked by the good or bad education that people received in their life. According to this, we can say that In Chile there is a big difference between private and state schools, because the private school put emphasize in the quality of the education so they cost more than others schools , But not everyone can paid for this, so the great majority of people send their kids to state school that sometimes are not dedicated to give theirs students the best education. In my case, I studied on a private school so I think I received a rather good education.
With the universities the situation it’s the opposite, Public universities are better than privates (in the majority of the cases)But a big percent of students who can enter to the university (and improve their quality of life) became form private school, so in this way it’s the same. Like I said, I think this an important topic and people , especially for students who are always doing demonstration about the subject , but I’m not sure about the real attention that the government is putting on this-

Cinema Paradiso, an excellent film =)

I like pretty much the films, so in this occasion it’s a little difficult to me choose only one , but definitely one of my favorites movies is “Cinema Paradiso” directed in 1988 by Giuseppe Tornatore an Italian director (Who also written the film) . The first time I saw this movie was at school in my language class when I was 14 years.
The plot its writing like a “raconto” so that’s an element who keeps you interested during the movie. The things that I most liked of the movie was the special and lovely personality of the kid in the story, called Toto who loves films and has an innocent way to see the cinema and all the magic there is behind this. Later Toto starting to work at the cinema but when he grow up felt the need to look for his dreams, so Toto left his town and his family, This scene moved my feelings in a great way.
The sound tracks it’s an important element in the cinema, that in many cases establish a big difference between two movies with good plots, and “Cinema Paradiso” has a wonderful soundtrack, composed by an excellent musician, Ennio Morricone.

So, liked I said this movie is very emotional and every time I see it I have the same feeling of happiness and commotion that I felt the first time.

BBC

Today in my English class I have to visited an internet page, is name is BBC. At first, I thought it will be very boring but when I started to look around this page I realize that this is a really good page to learning english because it’s very didactic and it has a lot of exercises and quizzes about grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. This can really help people who are learning english and it becomes in a good tool that anyone can use in any time.

I started listening something called “Face up to phrasals” I linked that page and suddenly appears a lot of series divided on episodes, so I clicked on one of the series is name was “Fred and Betty, Is this the end?” it was around ten episodes of a story about a couple that have been dating for many time and one day they have a big fight. This serie was funny but when I saw all the episodes I thought that the end was very boring.
So, I change the link and I started to play on “Grammar challenge”, an interesting and funny play. Maybe I will play it again in a future.

Me.
