What have you improved on most during this partial (or, if this is the 4th partial, during the semester)?
I believe i have improved the most in the vocabulary. I think reading the book has helped me because it`s a book about
a differtent topic from the topics im used to read in english. Maybe i have improved my speaking a little bit,but i think
i could improve it more.
What aspects of your English do you think still needs more work?
I think that the aspect of my english that needs more work is the vocabulary and the speaking.
I would like to learn more words and improve my vocabulary. In the speaking i need to be
more confident and not get nervous when im speaking. Also dont try to say the word in
spanish when i forget the word.
How will you improve those aspects?
To improve in these aspects i will try to speak more and practice my sepaking.
Also i will try to read more so i can learn new words and improve my vocabulary.
What aspect of your portfolio are you most proud of so far? Why?
The aspect of my portfolio that im most proud is the writings.
I believe that im a good writer and that sometimes im really good
at expressing the things that i wanna to say.
What aspect of your portfolio do you think needs the most improvement? Why?
The aspect of my porfolio that need the most improvement is the recordings.
In the recordings sometimes i get nervous so i start to talk to fast
or to loud, and some of them are not very good at all.
