WELCOME TO BILINGUAL FP!

Some months ago, our students from Transport and Logistics decided to record a video promoting our school. Specifically, why being learning English is fun in the Escuela Profesional Javeriana and why being bilingual is a challenge but we are learning a lot because of it.

We are the first bilingual FP school in the BEDA programme, it has been hard work, put we are very proud of what we have accomplished because of it. 

Last year the class of 2018 of International Trade was the first bilingual promotion ever at our school. This year, the class of 2019 of Administration and Finance is going to be the first bilingual promotion of this Degree. In between 2018 and 2019 three classes will have finished their bilingual degrees and we are very proud of them for believing that they could do it and proving that it is possible!

Sara recommends...

Hi everyone, my name is Sara and I'm studying Transport and Logistics.

I would like to recommend to attend a Language Exchange.

A language exchange is two or more people who speak different languages practicing each other's language. It is a very practical and fun method to learn languages. You will learn English while you meet people from different countries!

If I had to choose a place in Madrid to do it, it would be The James Joyce Irish Pub (C/ Alcalá, 59), they do it every Monday at 20:30. What are you waiting for?

Álvaro recommends...

¡Greetings! I´m Álvaro Fernández, Student of Transport & Logistics at Javerianas. I have been learning English since I was a kid, but I have never been abroad. I have just only watched how the US or the UK English is in the movies or videogames, or on TV. One thing I love about English is that you enjoy more variety of things and content made for English-speaking people, such as videos, movies, series...       

- I recommend at first watching series or videos with low content of vocabulary. -- Videogames are also a nice choice, since it´s something you can replay all the time without getting bored.

- Studying the irregular verbs list is also very helpful.

- When it comes to series, I recommend watching "angry kid", skits made with a clay-like animation about a redhead kid and his everyday routine. Low content of vocabulary, but very entertaining and original.

Shopping in Madrid 2018

In the EP Javeriana we were analysing different High Streets around the world, so we decided to go window shopping to four of them in Madrid: Preciados, Serrano, Goya and Fuencarral. 

We also did some research on the English language used by taking pictures of the signs we found. After processing the information, the different groups presented it to the class and we debated on the use of English for Marketing and Publicity.

"Our conclusion is that businesses are interested in tourists as they use everyday English signs to catch their attention. All the globalization let us think about how interested we have to be in learning  English. The use of English also make all businesses have the appearance of being more international"

"It was a very cool experience. We could see various types of shops with various English signs on them while exploring this street. We learnt the tipe of vocabulary used in clothing and jewelry shops"

"The signs in English are in chain stores (because all the stores are similar, it doesn't matter the ubication). In little stores there aren't many things in English. We have learnt that the main language of Marketing is English."
