This unit
was more than I expected because for the first time I could use my one
experience in one piece of work. I used my experience in the stadium to write
an essay and for that I wrote very fast and all the ideas were like floating in
my mind and then appear on the paper. My essay was about how people are segregated
and how they segregate according their way of speaking. The essay's
presentations were really good, I felt very comfortable and confident when I
was presenting and making use of the whiteboard.
I believe that the things, the content which we saw were very
interesting because in Language IV and in linguistics we have seen a lot of new
things and all of them very important.
Productive Skills
Writening
I think I'm a lot better but I believe I must improve in many ways
because I'm very disorganized when I'm writing. The good thing in this is now I
can write more things that before, because I have a better vocabulary with
a better range.
Speaking
In this
aspect I’m very lazy. I like to speak with others but sometimes I have don’t
want participate because I felt I won’t be a contribution and in others moment I
feel I don’t care about the topic and I believe that this matter has to be with
my mood.
Receptive
Skills
Reading
I have a
substantial improvement in this area; I understand almost everything I read.
The only problem here is my concentration, because I’m must be completely focus
on the textbook to understand the words and another problem it could be the
vocabulary because I must search some word to understand the meaning of some
paragraphs.
Listening
I have an
improvement here because now I always watch series and movies in English with English
subtitles. At first was really complicated but after some movies I started to
understand almost everything and now I’m starting to watch it (series and
movies) without English subtitles and is very regarding when I understand what
the guys on TV are saying.
Fluency
Now,
because I’m a little bit lazy, my fluency is not quite good.
