Module 15 Objectives
Estoy muy orgulloso de los comentarios que hemos recibido de parte de muchos
estudiantes de English Learning Formula. La mayoría de ellos hablan de
buenos resultados y avances notorios en el nivel de Listening y Speaking.
Los estudiantes que han experimentado resultados así, son personas
comprometidas con su propósito. Son personas que se toman en serio el proceso
de aprendizaje, y que entienden que aprender un nuevo idioma es una meta que
exige esfuerzo en el estudio y constancia en la práctica.
En el video de introducción de esta semana hago referencia a aquellas personas
que quizás no están experimentando aún resultados similares. A ellos y ellas les
explico que ningún proceso de aprendizaje es idéntico a otro. De hecho, al no
haber dos seres humanos iguales, es imposible que dos procesos de aprendizaje
sean iguales. Si plantamos dos árboles de la misma especie, uno al lado del otro,
los regamos con la misma cantidad de agua y les damos los mismos fertilizantes,
no crecerán con las mismas ramificaciones.
Quizás algunas personas puedan demorar un poco más en desarrollar el Listening
que otras. Eso es perfectamente normal. Mientras algunas desarrollan antes el
Listening, otras lo hacen con el Speaking o el Reading. Algunas tienen mucho
arrojo para llevar a cabo sus sesiones con el tutor, mientras que otras prefieren
esperar adquirir más conocimientos con los módulos antes de embarcarse en una
conversación. Todo aquello es natural.
Sin embargo, lo que debe ocurrir en todos los casos es la combinación de los trs
factores, es decir, el estudio de la gramática y vocabulario, con la ejecución de la
práctica. Mientras menos el estudiante demore en comenzar las sesiones de
Speaking con el tutor, mucho mejor. Por esta razón, mi consejo para esta
semana es que nos atrevamos a agendar la primera sesión en vivo con el tutor
vía Skype (si aún no lo has hecho), para ponerse de acuerdo en al menos dos
sesiones semanales de conversación.
¡Muy bien! Para esta semana vamos a aprender la combinación del Present
Perfect + Ever o Never, y la combinación del Present Perfect + For o Since.
Además, vamos a seguir estudiando los modismos del inglés que nos permitirán
adquirir mayor fluidez en la conversación cotidiana, y dos videos de práctica de
pronunciación.
Let's start Module 15!
