6. STATEMENT OF PERSONAL LEARNING GOALS.
English language is one of the most spoken widely language around the world. I choose at
“Carrera the Idiomas” because I consider the English is very important to know in order to
communicate with others. Also, I can find more opportunities to find a good job. This carrier
offers me a quality of education in the area of English. On the other hand, when I finish the
carrier I will get a bachelor as an English Teacher.
In this semester my goal is to use the technology in the classroom on order to make the
class more interesting. On the other hand, I have to make an effort in order to achieve my aim
in this subject. Also, the participation in class is really important because the teacher can
provide me some feedback when I can´t use the tools in a good way. It can help me to improve
the management of a class. Another goal is to coming prepared to class for different activities
develop for the teacher.
I will achieve my goals making an effort such as paying attention in class, participation in
class, coming prepared for the classes, bringing all the materials necessaries for the class. It
will help me to be ready more about technology and the appositive aspect that each tool has.
Also, with these goals I can be more interesting to learn the language that for me is really
important to know.
However, I will do every day a self-evaluation to see the progress in the subject. Also, I can
distribute my time in order to check everything about all the classes. Then, I can start to
develop the activities that the book has and start to practice reading at home. In, technology
is very useful for education because students can be interested in learning the language.
