HEALTHY LIFE!

These days, I think it is very difficult to live a healthy life. The main problem surely is stress. Stress is present in our lives wherever you look. Reading newspapers you can see that the majority of headlines are about incidents caused by mental problems caused by depression.
I am sure everybody knows how to live a healthy life, but life sometimes is too difficult to live as healthy as we would like. Who has not read advertisements, articles or advice about this topic? We normally agree with everything they tell us but we don’t do anything about it.

If we would be able to consider living a healthy life, we will consequently achieve a better and happier life. Healthy lives involve health, diet and daily routines. But I would like to add the importance of personal relationships.
When I talk about health I am referring to taking care of our body, I mean doing sports, going to the doctor when you don’t feel well or being able to relax after a bad day or having a good personal hygiene. Diet involves eating well, this is, eating healthy food, going for check ups, and not eating excessively. Talking about daily routines we can mention the time we dedicate to work, to sleep or just for free time.

On the other hand, nowadays, there is no point of discussing how important personal relationships are in living a healthy life. This means, try to be positive, interesting, optimistic, friendly, and tolerant.

To finish, I would just stress that, trying to live a healthy life isn’t worth it if you don’t put enthusiasm into everything you want. Even a diet needs enthusiasm! If you can cope with a healthy lifestyle, surely you will be happy!

EXPERIENCE AS A LEARNER!

Talking about my experience as a learner makes me think of the time when I was a little child. I had a really great experience at school. I greatly admired my school teachers and I sadly missed that time when my only problems were going to school. The best I enjoyed learning were the subjects maths and science. I had many difficulties drawing and doing physical education. It was really frightening to walk the tightrope or doing somersaults . What I hated most was music probably because I never understood how to read music and I had invariably failed in playing the flute.

My most important quality as a learner in the past, but also in the present, I think it is to be a hardworking, optimistic and very positive person in the face of new learning.
Analysing the activities that make me learn best, I have to mention the pair work or group work activities and brainstorming doing projects. This gave me a interpersonal intelligence though I also learn with activities related with language which give me a linguistic intelligence. In my opinion it is very difficult to decide just a single type of intelligence in the way of learning.

I would like to emphasise how in general, people think the worst experience in students' life is when they have to repeat a primary course. Nowadays in schools repeating a course has to be a “prize” for students who have learning difficulties and not a negative experience. In my opinion, repeating a course must not be a cause of trouble but of course a nice way to improve learning.

To finish, I would like to say that the most important quality as a learner, is to have motivation, to feel interested or able to cope with difficulties and to be actively engaged in the learning process.
