My dear students,
It is great
to meet again to talk about such an interesting topic as your area of studies
and your motivation to do so.
I am really
motivated to discuss this fascinating issue with you because I have to confess
that I love psychology, but at the same time I see the task as a great challenge
because human beings are extremely complex, and psychology deals with one of
the most controversial points of society: the individual .
Also we
have to discuss an even more difficult area that is motivation. In this sense I
like to refer to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, which I agree with and I think it
is a way to guide us to understand this mysterious area of the human mind. I
found useful information in this website that I attach:
A more
difficult and specialized area is theoretical psychology, in which I find
myself at a great disadvantage with you, and the advantage is that you can
demonstrate your expertise and the area where
you want to work. But I did my homework and I found this:
Another successful
ISTP conference was held in Santiago, Chile from May 3 to 7, 2013.
Did you know about it? Did you attend it?
Finally,
the area where I feel I belong: the practical
applications of psychology . I definitely think psychology is a very useful
tool for teachers. Some interesting points for me are to know how students
learn most effectively, how they improve, how they can be motivated
to study English.

The Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is beautiful and wonderful
