My future job

I can´t imagine that in the future I will be doing something different from that I have been doing so far: being a university professor. I love my job, I love teaching and interacting with young people and motivate my students to learn, to work up a critical point of view about society and develop their own thinking.  So, is difficult for me imagine myself doing other thing, therefore I would love to continue being a university professor but in much better conditions than today. For instance, in the future, I would like apply for a full time work at a public university, and have a contract and a salary every month as the contracted professors have.

Fortunately, when I have a full time job as university professor I will be able travel every year to participate in congresses, seminars, courses and conferences, both in Chile and abroad. This is other point that I love of being professor, the opportunities of travel around the world.

Now I´m studying a PhD in Latin American Studies. I decided to study a PhD because I love studying but also because is a condition to make a university career as professor. So, when I have finished my PhD I will be able to reach a full-time job at a public university like I want.


About the salary, I don’t have great expectations, but I´m satisfied with the average salary of a university professor.

    Hi Pierina!

    It's great that you already do classes as university professor, because you have a better background to understand and develop yout teaching skills. I believe that working with students must necessarily involve the generation of criticial points of view and independent thinking that you mentioned, especially in an area difficult to separate from subjectivity. In that sense, you must be a great teacher.

A place I have visited The best place that I had ever visited is Cusco and its surroundings. Cusco is a very beautiful small city, located in the southeast of Perú at a height of 3.400 meters. Cusco is a very beautiful small city. With colonial buildings like the cathedral called Basilica Virgen de la Asunción. Lamentably a big part of the Cusco’s beauty comes from the dispossession of the inca people: many amazing walls and buildings of the city were built with stones stolen from the inca’s temples. It was the dark side of the colonial process. Buy, despite that, Cusco is a real beautiful place. The surroundings of Cusco are very cute too, places like the Sacred Valley, which is a lovely place. It looks over the mountains, there are hardly any cars there and there are hardly villages too. So, the place is very quiet and natural and has a spectacular landscape. Certainly, the archaeological sites are the most interesting attractions of the Cusco´s surrou...

A special day, my favourite film I have seen a lot of movies in my life. When I was an undergraduate student and I had many spare time, I saw 2 or 3 films a week. So is hard for me to choose one between all the movies that I have seen, because many of them are really good films. But, considering photography and art direction, movie script, direction and actors’s performances, I can choose one called Una giornata particolare (A special day) directed by the Italian filmmaker Ettore Scola and starred by Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroiani in 1977. The fim is set at the 1930´s in Italy, specifically at the day when Aldolf Hitler visited Benito Mosslini at Roma at May 1938. In this context, the film tells the story of “Antonietta” (Loren) and Gabriele (Mastroiani). Antonieta is a housewife who is married with “Emanuele Tiberio” an Italian soldier with whom has seven sons and Gabriele is an homosexual man who had been fired for his sexual orientation and had been condemned to exil...

Sports in my life Sports were very present in my family, because my father loved sports and played tennis, principally until his health allowed him. My older brothers did sports too. So, when I was child I had a close relationship and a good disposition for sports.  Among the sports that I did, I enjoyed very much doing athletics at school. I don't know if I was good at it but I liked. But the sport that I most enjoy when I was child was riding horses. I did it from 7 to 12 years old and it was one of the most important experiences of my early life, because I could develop a kind of love and friendship with horses and because this sport wa s very demanding and needed a lot of discipline, and as a child, these elements were very important to form my personality (Though when my family had economic problems I had to leave this loved sport and, really, all sports for a very long time). But,  when I became an adolescent I putted my attention on music and books and I l...
