Final reflection

Today I am going to write the last post in this blog. I am going to do the final reflection.
First of all, I would like to give my opinion about the English Project that we have been doing since first of Batxillerat.

When I realized all the work we had to do last year, I felt astonished, but in few days I got used to it. I started to work hard because I saw that it was the only way to improve my English level, which was so bad. I used to write a lot every term and trying to talk about new ideas for me with the objective of use and learn new vocabulary for me.

This year, I used to do the same. I tried to do the high number of posts as possible but this year we had more work than last year so it was more difficult for me, and I couldn’t carry out my objective.

Although I did fewer posts than last year, this year I used to introduce more key words with the objective of enrich my vocabulary.

From my opinion, I have to say that I agree with this English Project. This project helped me a lot with my English not only for write, also for speak and understand conversations, etc.

However, it made me stressed with all the constantly work, because I did it little by little, because I do not like leave all the work for the lasts days, so moreover, with this project, I learned to be constantly with my work.

To sum up, I would like to say that this project is a good opportunity for people who don’t go to extra English classes like me, because you learn the most important things for move in one English country: write, speak and understand.

Now, is time to look back and compare my first writing in 1st of Batxillerat (email to Gemma) and my last one in 2nd Batxillerat (Advantages of life in the country versus life in the city).

In this last writing, I used to write with more maturity, more vocabulary with different grammar constructions, etc. About my first writing, there was no linking words, no structure, etc. So is easy to see how they have changed in two years.

Furthermore I improved a lot my fluency. When I started to write my blog compositions in 1st of Batxillerat I used to spend a lot of time doing them, and now I can do them quickly and also, I think, better. Is really difficult for me choose my best writing because I did a lot and there are a lot for choose. Moreover, I think that there are more than one that are correctly written.

About my oral English, I also have improved since my first one. In first oral presentation I was so nervous and also I had a bat pronunciation. Now, I speak with more fluency and although I have to continue improve my pronunciation, I have improved it a lot. Here you have an example: my first oral presentation and here, the presentation about my Research Project, that I think that is the best I’ve ever did.

If you want to cheek it by yourself, here you have the link of my 4th of ESO blog and here my first Batxillerat blog and portfolio.

Everything is done now and the only thing missing is thank you for this English Project that has helped me a lot to improve my English! :)

Good luck!
