I can improve by activating an alarm to remind me about the materials for example a reminder. Speaking more English in class then I will learn more. I can improve by having a calendar for my homework besides a reminder in my cell phone. I can improve by reading more everyday in order to improve my grammar This part of my English really improved in this course due to the exercises we made in class. Giving more importance to this part of the subject in order to achieve better scores. I can improve by being more responsible by doing my work weeks before the dead line. I can improve by going to places where native speakers are in order to loose fear. I can improve by doing more articles on my own since I don't understand well the writing.

- 6. entences (you can use just once each FANBOY) I think that my writing skills were around the 7 points over the semester, because at the beginning i liked to write but I had very obvious grammar mistakes that can be noticed in the homework. I thought that i knew how to, however all the semester I managed to learn different ways to write down the ideas in a more flexible manner. It卒s not by being repetitive as you can manage to connect ideas without feeling redundant. I can manage to understand the topic yet I don't feel confident at the moment I put my ideas on paper. For me to learn how to figure out the ways to make an easy understandable text in order to improve my writing skills. I should have considered my classmate's understanding because of my grammar skills. To show my ideas in a way that everyone can understand, however some times I couldn卒t do it. At the end I think that I manage to achieve a 9, I can put my thoughts in paper or express them well while not loosing the idea. I think it has a lot of impact in the future, since my career is all in English, so to make a good profile of it I need this fluency in the writing. A way to express what I think without loosing the main idea or wandering between words also my speaking have improved.
