- Susana's presentation was about bullying it wasn't bad but unfortunately it wasn't nothing new either,the only criticism I can make is that sometimes you can't understand what she says:because the tone of her voice is not good enough,she doesn't give a clear explanation about she means,but those things,maybe,with a little bit more of practice can fix them.
- Seba Marfil talked about a really interesting topic: CONACE aid campaign,which is the topic these last couple of days,it was attractive to see how people in general,most of them adolescents,react to this campaign and I agree with my classmates opinions : the goverment should give information to the students and let them know what are the effects of drugs in general,students need to be more educated about this topic.
- Seba Contreras talked about Second Language Adquisition it was a good presentation and I like the fact that he gave us a essay written by him when he was in NY City.
- Myriam Figueroa did a presentation about the Drinking Age it was an interesting topic but she did her presentation so fast that I wasn't able to see in details the most important facts.
- Roberto Meneses talked about Becas Chile Sistema Bicentenario, it was interesting because it's an opportunity that we can have eventually.
- And last but not least my presentation was about Cutting,why young people cut themselves,where they cut,what are the reasons and what can we do if we have a friend or in the future a student who have this problem,I was really nervious,but I think I did a good job.

5 Facts About Goal Setting
Harassment at school
If your child is being sexually harassed or bullied by another student, it's best to take action right away rather than waiting for the students to work it out themselves.

Teachers Personality
The first thing that the girl did was write in the board the definition of a list of words,that we didn't know the meaning like: slip up,tongue in the cheek,drawbacks,bamboozle,etc., they talk about what the personality teacher must have and gave the TOP 6 KEY TO BECOME A SUCCESSFUL TEACHER:
- sense of humor,
- a positive attitude,
- high expectations,
- consistenly,
- fairness and finally
- flexibilty
Then the girls gave us a piece of paper in which we can find the different teacher's personality like:fair and balanced,more coach that teacher,ditto master,popular disciplinarian and the last walking carpet personality so the audience participate in the writting part. After that gave us situations in which we had to find out to which one personality belong.
The presentation was interesting to hear because if somebody asks about the characteristics of a good teacher, of course, everyone would say something like the 6 "THINGS " that a teacher should have in order to become a successful teacher and it's funny how a teacher or future one should be able to learn,to create or even to incorporate those characteristics if we want to be successful.
aboutgood too,just like the other ones,but Coni and Marce can improve the tone of their voice because it was too soft,but good,so it's just a detail than can be changed.
Resiliency
Bullying
- 0=you are ok,
- 1 or 2= possibly a bully in the making and finally more than
- 2=you defenitly are a bully and should consider ways to change your behaviour
...and it turn out to be that I get 2 yes so you can imagine the rest...it's hard to hear that you can be potentially a bully person,but in my defense I can say that a question like do you like to tease or taunt other people? or do you get angry a lot and stay angry for a long time? , in the first question it's something that I do with my friends but just joking and in the second it depends on that gets me angry,but anyways I think, if it's a bad thing, you can change it easily.I like the fact that we were able to apply inmediately the topic to ourselves,so it was great! But it is something very important to be aware of not because it's something that happens regularly,because it's something that we're going to face it eventually.

Peque
...my name is Tamara Farias but everyone called me peque,and I'm so into that,that when someone who I really really know,like a member of my family or friend called me TAMARA! I know that it's not good...anyway...I'm 21 and it's awesome,not because you're an "adult",which it's a big deal,but I don't know it's something special ,at least for me.
I consider myself like a great friend, a really good one,I'm honest,i'm not afraid to show my points of view even when it can be "the opposite" of everyone's toughts and I can keep writing a lot of good and bad things about me, but is not something that I'm comfortable about it, or maybe it can be another day...
