To be honest when I was studying to become an English teacher, I never thought about taking a postgraduate course. I just wanted to finish and start working as soon as possible! As I told you on my previous blog, I thought I would teach little kids. But since I work with adults now, it is a must to have a postgraduate degree. So that is why I enrolled to a Master program last year.

I am studying a Master in Education, major in English as a foreign language at Universidad Central.  It is a two years program, I am so happy because this is my last semester.  It has been really hard though, I have a class which is English v/s Spanish phonetics. And Spanish is more difficult, believe me! So we are lucky that it is our mother tongue. Also I am working on my thesis, which takes a lot of time. Talking about that, I am going to need your help for it! I will need you to answer to a survey in a couple of weeks. I really hope that you can and want to participate J

Hopefully I will finish this on May. Even though I am really tired, I would like to study again.

A couple of years ago I applied to a Master in Education at the University of Auckland. I got in but of course in order to study there, I needed a scholarship. Every time that I have tried to apply, I forget about a document. Maybe I will try next year again.

I have looked for one year courses that are related to methodology, phonetics, grammar and didactics here in Santiago. I still do not know if I will start studying again next year, but I really hope so.
