Level 4, Intermediate, Post 6, 'Postgraduate Studies'

 Write about a postgraduate course that you would consider taking in the future. 

 

Include: 
 
- Reasons to do the course 
- Subject(s) you would like to study 
- Where you would like to study (Chile or abroad) 
- How you would like to study (distance learning, blended system, part-time course, etc) 
- Any other relevant ideas 
- Make comments on 3 of your classmates’ posts + a comment on your teacher's post. 

- Word Count: 220 words 

 
 

As usual, I leave you a sample, 

 
 

"I would like to further my studies. If they are going to be formal, I would like to think that I will be taking a postgraduate course. Three, actually. Well, maybe four will do. 

 
The first one will consist of a Master's Degree (MA) in English Linguistics, the second, an MA in Cognitive Studies and the third one, MA in Applied Linguistics: Teaching English as a Foreign Language. Finally, a PhD on Linguistics will crown this endeavour. 

 
A lot them will take place in 2 universities: Catholic and Chile. Why? Because there are no Doctoral studies for Linguistics at ‘La Chile’, unfortunately.  And, also, there is no speciality in teaching which is worth of my time. Only Catholic University is offering this Applied Linguistics MA. Not even 'UMCE' (former 'Pedagógico') is teaching a decent MA in Education. 

 
In a matter of decades, I would also like to travel abroad and study a MA and a PhD in Comparative Literature at University of Edinburgh, Scotland, which is the place where my real interest for languages resides. Furthermore, I am considering the possibility of pursuing Doctorate Studies in Education at the University of Leeds in England. 

 
All of the above, is intended only to represent a life project that I would like to fulfil. It will take an entire life for me to realise this Project, which I hope I could make some good profit of it, not monetary (don’t get me wrong)".

    I feel very identified with the idea of ​​studying for the pleasure of acquiring knowledge of self-interest and not for a monetary matter, I think it's enriching

    It is a good way not only to continue learning but also to crown the effort obtain masters or doctorates, although I believe that the most important thing is to continue knowing

    No, no, it is not misunderstood, what a great project you have and a pity that uchile doesn't have what you are looking for, you just have to continue with that desire to find satisfaction and more knowledge, you are a good teacher and I hope you achieve everything you set out to do.

    I liked the idea of to do studies far away from Chile, because here the education it's very expensive and to do a travel can be more enriching, even though it's difficult for moments. I hope your dreams came come true!

And what is most difficult to say is that you like your job and to choose a form of making money that makes you happy. It is not a matter of choosing, it is a very opposite relationship that one, as a worker, build through time with a paid endeavour. This relationship is only of a monetary nature, and since it is of this character, one cannot decide if that form of personal and intimate bond that one holds with money is healthy at all. I think it is probably not. So, in short words
