Self-assessment

Hello, this year i believe that i have evolved a lot, in regards to my English, because i have been able to talk a lot in English and learning new vocabulary, i love how dynamic the classes were, i love watching videos, listening to music and even acting out some plays lol. i think my greatest strengths in English is my pronunciation and my vocabulary, and one of my weaknesses is my writing i think i could improve my calligraphy and such, i did great on the test and i didn't had any doubts at all, now, outside the classroom i kept speaking English with my sister that lives in the U.S and i love talking to her in English, i learned a lot more about culture by seeing the maps of the U.S with teacher Cristina, Guy and Clarissa, but i think i could still improve my vocabulary and writing.
Anyway... BFN see you in the next term!
