Real Learning

Real learning is to learn in a way so good, that you will never forget what you learn. For example, real learning is not academic. You may learn the world's countries and capitals, but in two months you will forget them. Real learning is spiritual, like lessons. If you learn something the bad way, you will probably remember it for the rest of your life. However,  if you learn something in class that you only need for the exam, you will remember it for a really short time.
I also think real learning occurs when the person is willing to learn. For example: in the movie The Million Dollar Baby, Maggie Fitzgerald wanted to train boxing so hard, that she became lightweight champion in 1 and a half years, compared to the average 4 years.

  1. Hey, Alejandro. It'as me. The one you always ignore. I think you did an amazing job describing what you think is real learning. I like the way you (in a way) used an anecdote, the one about country's capitals. I also like that you said what isn't real learning. Whereas to the transitional words, great job! I liked the way you knew where they should go. :)

  2. Alejandro, I really liked how you described real learning, and the example given on the world's capitals was great. You highlighted the transitional words, and their use was great, since it wasn't a forced use at all. It is good to mention what is not real learning and what happens when one does not really learn.

  3. Alejandro, you are the god of grammar, the king of capitalization, the wizard of words; you are the Emperor of English. Trololoo, just kidding. But seriously, great job with your assignment. You explained your point very well and used the transitional words correctly. But for next time I would recommend that you make them a bit longer.
