Final Self Reflection

Upload your Initial Self Assessment PDF, which is in your portfolio folder.


Final Self Reflection
I think I improved most this semester in Reading because now I can "understand specific details in a longer text and find evidence to support my answers".


I think I still need to practice listening because it is still difficult for me to "understand basic instruction  about times, dates and other basic things when people leave information." I have problems understanding when people talk really fast.


This summer, I wish I would have practiced listening more and watched more videos in English.

Next semester I will practice Enjoy English and other English websites in order to improve my English even more. I also want to watch videos on Netflix and Youtube in English to help me improve my listening skills. I should keep a vocabulary journal and write down new words and phrases to help me remember words from the videos.

Make sure your plan for improvement includes 3 behaviors you can observe and measure - "I will study more" is not observable nor measurable!

Evidences

Remember - you need at least 3 evidences with reflections. Here is an example.




I chose this evidence because it shows I have improved in Reading. Part 1 of KET was difficult for me at the beginning but now I can understand simple signs and notices. I have improved because I have studied my vocabulary on quizlet and practice with online programs such as Enjoy English and English Aula.

Be sure to include what SKILL and CAN DO statement your evidence shows!

Introduction


My name is Dianna Rogers and I teach English 2 at Tec de Monterrey. I am 35 years old and I enjoy playing guitar, singing, going to the gym and spending time with my family in my free time. I like studying English because it is challenging. For me, most difficult part is the passive voice and the part I enjoy the most is being able to communicate with people from different countries.
