How the pandemic have affected my studies.

 

The pandemic has been a global health crisis that has changed our entire way of life.

Personally, for me it has been a negative change since I have never liked to spend many hours in front of a computer without being able to move much and with this online modality you spend full days in front of the computer, both in classes and doing group work.

Therefore, I miss too much the face-to-face classes and those breaks where you could take a breath of fresh air in the courtyard of the University and talk with your classmates with whom I have an excellent relationship and we work in a pleasant atmosphere. However, many times the conditions at home are not the most suitable and I have many distractions.

Finally, the disadvantages are greater compared to the advantages of online classes, such as: tedious classes, heavy academic load, little time for me, lack of land, etc. As an advantage I can happily point out that I have been able to spend more time with my family since I had to leave my hometown when I entered the university, so my younger sister is the happiest that I have not returned to Santiago.
