cultural encounters

between my internship i realize anglophone culture are a little similar to an francophone culture, because of there lifestyle.

per example, I ask one of my the worker that is English what kind of living does he do , he mentioned he eats poutine ,  he like to listen a comedy jam French or English and he play hockey as fun with his friend. Some of English peoples likes how French culture is based on with others country's and religion.

when I ask to  a French worker about his lifestyle to see the difference or the convenient about the French and the English culture , he mentioned he watch football, he hang out with his friends , most of his friends are English its the advantage for him to learn English and the culture about them , he plays hockey too , like music and arts.

to conclude , English and French culture are so much convenient apart there' a lot of advantage between them .

lingustic inteference

when I was 8 years old , my first language was French , than when I move to north Carolina at the state , that's where my whole life has change , why ? because I started to speak English more than French , I was considering myself as an English person , I couldn't even spoke French and write . 2 years later I moved to Canada, when I move my mom wanted to register me at the English school but that didn't happened because both of parents had to study on English when they were young. So I decided to register at the French school. That's were my linguistic interference begins.

first, when I'm trying to communicate on French, I am saying in English then translating in French that really affect my language , cause when I am trying to express myself on English or French I'm thinking one of these language, before collaborate.



At my internship , I can really express my English without getting no help with the host or the monitor. cause that's the reason were doing the internship improve the language. I got strategies that help me forcing myself to do mistake: repetition , guessing, talking to myself and low inhibition. that's what I use to be a good learner

interaction 3

the way we communicate in our interaction is much body language and communication. I got two kinds of internship : helping kids for their home works and helping kids improving their basket ball skills who ever want to play basket ball that serious in their life.


the body language : refer on basket ball, more easier for kids to listen and understand the plays structure what do they have to do to accomplish their skills. it's much better to communicate on body language compare to explain it without showing them the move, cause theirs a better chance the kids might not follow the dribble and lose control.

communication : refer to get attention from the children to the tutor, too listen and to learn what we got to explain to them on a verbal language to understand the work that I am explaining to them.


between the Anglophone culture and francophone culture are so difference , why?
because Anglophone kids got hard head , they give attitude, cursing , won't listen and screaming loud. we always got to make sure their behavior with others student, cause some of them are sensitive.
the francophone are more little bit quite compare to the Anglophone, cause their listen but not much and they obey some of our orders.

Description of my first impressions of my intership

my first impression of my internship was playing with the kids in basket ball , develop their skills, learning the rules. it's not going to be hard to teach some of the kids to play basket ball, cause I was already a assistant coach before.
