14.02.2016 // one essay written this weekend and now it’s on to critical pedagogy. ☀️
Tomorrow I need to go to take my application to college (it's not exactly college but whatever), but I'm not sure if I want to be a English translator anymore. I think I'm going to choose the English teacher training course.

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while, been busy the last few days. Got 2 essays due next Friday and I’m sorta stressing out for one of them since I’m kinda lost on it. I also got my 2nd Law essay feedback today, I was expecting to get a 2:2 but I got a 2:1 so I’m pretty happy about it. What my lecturer wrote about my essay was hella true though, it’s exactly what I thought about it and I don’t feel as bad for getting the mark I got since it wasn’t my best piece of writing. But I’ll be reviewing the essay question again to fully understand it better. Happy Monday!! Hope you all have a good week ahead.
Many hearts
What’s in my pencil case? I got a request to make a post like this so here it is!

guess who doesn’t have tutorial classes today !! so I decided to go down to Starbucks to study
Here’s a list of what I do that really helps me learn the language using Duolingo; it’s extra work than the app gives you, but it helps me get my answers right most of the time and I feel like I know the language much better than I would have normally.
Completing the tree
Grammar time!
So, if you’re anything like me, you love learning languages. If you’re even more like me, you have a preference for doing it, and it is not memorizing vocab (though this is necessary!). Duolingo is nice for vocab and grammar….practice. To practice, you have to learn it first, right? It teaches you the vocab well, but there’s one huge problem I found while finishing up my Spanish tree: The farther you get, the less grammar lessons there are.
This is crucial! How am I supposed to know what’s going one with he/habia/habias when I don’t even know what the tense is?
So, I prepared a list of grammar resources/courses that I think do a good job of walking you through, step-by-step, the lessons in a similar order to Duolingo.
My recommendation for using these requires looking ahead. Look at your next Duolingo lesson and, before taking it, look at the corresponding lesson on one of these websites. Take notes on it! Go back to Duolingo and now that you actually know what you’re doing. (If you get things consistently wrong, you can then review the grammar lesson on whatever website - in case they’re out of order). These apply to any website or program other than Duolingo, especially self-teaching, since they’re all basic grammar lessons.
The ones I’ve listed are mainly Spanish and German; these are the languages I’m studying. I can’t speak on other websites and their ease/comprehensiveness if I’m not studying that language! Please feel free to edit this post and add your own websites/languages when you reblog.
