Post 7: Changes to my study programme

Imagen
If I could change some things to my study programme surely I will change the curriculum, because I think some subjects aren't really that focused on Odontology and involve many hours of study and work.   Regarding the length of studies I'm quite satisfied, because I believe we need several years of studies to be sufficiently prepared to treat a patient. However, I think the workload is too much, there are days when I feel very tired and look like a zombie, so I would like to change the distribution of the workload, for example, by establishing a limit of evaluations per week that be respected by the different subjects. On the other hand, regarding online teaching and the use of technology I feel there are advantages and disadvantages. The main advantage in my opinion is that you can watch the recording of the class as many times as you want. And the main disadvantage is that sometimes teachers don't respect the established schedule, so that's an issue that obviously I...

Post 6: Time travel to the past

If I could travel in time, I would travel to the past. My grandfather died 10 years ago and I really miss him, so I would travel to my childhood, when I was 7 years old and he was still alive. And I believe I would go to his house or to his workshop, because I have never forget how happy he was there. Why would I go there? Because every time I went to visit him   he received me with a big hug at the door of his house, we played too much and always enjoyed delicious meals. With him I always felt safe and loved, it would really be good to see him again and enjoy his company a little more. I think I would go with my parents and my little brother, because I believe it would do us good to share with him again, enjoy his joy, hug him again and be able to tell him once again how much we love him. We were a very close family and we were always looking for excuses to celebrate, so we would probably have a big celebration, talk long hours and dance to our favorite songs. I don't know if ...

Post 5: My future job

Imagen
After finishing my university studies I would like to work as a dentist. I imagine it as a very entertaining and dynamic job, because each patient requires different treatments. I would like to work in a rural hospital practicing my profession. Therefore, this would be a job both indoors and outdoors, because I would like to attend patients both within the hospital as well as those who live in places that are difficult to access, visiting them directly in their house. I would love to travel a lot as part of my job and for the same reason I would like to work in a rural area, to be able to leave the hospital to visit my patients. Besides, if I had the chance to work in a university, I would do it without a doubt, because I'm good at teaching other people and also because I could work in labs researching something interesting. At the moment, I am not sure which major I will choose. I’m torn between forensic dentistry and orthodontics. On the one hand, I like forensic dentistry ...
