psychology
Hello!
I have to write something in order to continue improving my writing. The feedback received is being has been very helpful and I feel that everyday I'm becoming a little bit better at English. So, I decided to talk about a subject that has become a huge part of my life: psychology. For almost four years I'm I've been a psychology student here in Brazil. In Throughout these years I've been through tough moments. It's not an easy course since you have a to do a lot of reading and writing, besides as well as oral presentations. I also had also several disappointments right in at the beggining of the course: the teachers, who were psychologists, were just like normal teachers that I had had before. I was expecting people who knew how to motivate students without being aggressive or without using threats. Above all, I was expecting people who cares for the students, who could understand that we are not machines, that sometimes we feel bad and that we feel pressure that came comes from all the sides. I did not find even one teacher like I was expecting, but maybe I was expeting too much :D
I've probably already made already a lot of mistakes in this text, so I'm stopping for now.
Thanks for reading, thanks in advance for any feedback!
Great job!
Here you can use 'besides' at the beginning of the phrase. E.g. Besides oral presentations, you also have a to do a lot of reading and writing. (I think the 'also' is optional but sounds better).
Be careful with the use of the present perfect. This is a common place for Brazilians to make mistakes. Also, I added some conjunctions here in some places where you needed either a conjunction or to start a new sentence. E.g. It's not an easy course. You have to do a lot of reading and writing... is also possible.
'Throughout' could also be 'During'. That's all for now. Let me know if you have any questions.

Good writing! Your English is fluent, and the mistakes are few and far between - you've explained an abstract concept very well. Good luck with your psychology studies.
