Things non-Spanish-speaking Latinos are sick of hearing

Things non-Spanish-speaking Latinos are sick of hearing

In that video, we can saw different persons that stereotype a man Mexican American:

For example, the man who wants to learn Spanish but at the same time kidding you for 

the pronunciation of the common Spanish words for americans.

Another situation occurs when you know someone who is Mexican and the person 

identified with you then both start talking about cultural things, and makes the talk really 

familiar and friendly.

Even his boos kidding about if he knows margaritas, tequila and other Mexicans 

beverage.

Ken Tanaka meets a Caucasian Japanese man.

In the other video, we saw the life of a Caucasian Japanese who raise in Japan but he can 

speak English because he has not the English accent.

Ken Tanaka asked him if he suffer bullying for not speak well Japanese when he was a 

child, but when he answered no Ken astonishes because he known a lot of histories of 

persons that suffer bullying for that situation.

David think that is more often suffered bullying if you are a half Japanese because in his case the people think that he was American but it was another situation of Japanese American who are living in Japan they have much harder time.

After watched these two videos, I am accord with David but told in other words, 

how the people see you they treat you, and that depends of the culture of your residence 

for example in general the Mexicans are friendly so when you meet a Mexican in another 

country commonly they are treat with amiability in a general situation.

Then explained what happened when you look like a Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, and you don’t speak the language that supposed you need to talk in that case the citizen get angry
automatically because they felt offended and attacked for you even if they don´t know
your story.

Finally, I think that videos could show us not categorization the people for their appearance.

Regarding the suggestions exists 5 skills or techniques for learning languages:

1.- Make mistakes.

2.- Scrap the foreign alphabet

3.- Find a stickler

4.- Shower conversations

5.- Buddy Formula

There are some new techniques for me, such as the shower conversation, I have never practice this skill and I think is really useful in a travel or in our city when a foreigner asked us an address or other information and that situation is the most common way that you could use to learned a language.

Recently I had used the second skill scrap the foreign alphabet but with the words, although that sometimes confused me when I wrote a text.

Continued with the others techniques which are more common, but something is important recall, it is that we always forget the first skill and I think is the most important technique "make mistakes", Because we tried to give the best in our pronunciation and forgot the grammatical structure.

Finally, the Buddy formula and the find a stickler I think are similar because in both someone else speak well the language and then corrected us our mistakes.

Reading experience HW

READING EXPERIENCE

My experience in the last reading was difficult because there was many words that I didn´t know the meaning. The most difficult text for me was the second.

My experience in the last reading were (plural form) difficult because there was many words for wich (drafting) I didn´t know the meaning. The most difficult text for me was the second.

Note: Extra paragraph, according the indications.

That was because I did not understand Tony's attitude to the situation described on the text and that complicated to me understanding the text. That exercise was really interesting because that results proof that I am a reflective learner because I prefer think about the text before understand them.

In conclusion I think that is the reason I cannot answer correctly that questions, another difficulty was the structure of the questions because in general in the test readings we only answer true, false or do not know and that kind of questions changed our typical form of an exam.

This is my results of the first exam:

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Learning Styles Results Results for: Fabiola Alc�ntara ACT X REF 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> SEN X INT 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> VIS X VRB 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> SEQ X GLO 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> If your score on a scale is 1-3, you are fairly well balanced on the two dimensions of that scale. If your score on a scale is 5-7, you have a moderate preference for one dimension of the scale and will learn more easily in a teaching environment which favors that dimension. If your score on a scale is 9-11, you have a very strong preference for one dimension of the scale. You may have real difficulty learning in an environment which does not support that preference. According the results minds that I am a balanced on the two dimensions of that scale, because my score was between 1-3. For example: In the first graph my score was 3 and according the results that indicated I am a reflective learner and that is true because I prefer to think about a new theme before understand them. Continued with the second graph my score was 3 and according the results that minds I am a sensors learned and I think is a little be true because I am an accountant and always need to follow a established methods, for example to presented the financial situation of a business or personal financial situation and the same case presented in my other degree of lawyer which need follow the laws, in the process. In the next graph my score was 3 that indicated I am a verbal learner and I think that is not the most certainly because I remember more a face than a name. In the last graph describes me like a sequential learner and I think is result of my professional formation.
