When I read “My Language 1: Self-Assessment” again I could notice two things: the 1^st thing is that I’m still in love with this career, English Pedagogy. I know is early what I am saying but is the truth I want to be an English Teacher for the rest of my life. I see myself working as teacher and only in that, nothing else. Teaching is my passion; I see that when sometimes I have to teach to the kids of my neighborhood. The 2^ndthing is that my first semester was a little bit difficult, because I didn’t get used to online classes, but now I am. I think my 1^st semester my teachers helped me to progress in the subjects Reading and Writing. Also, they taught me somethings that I didn’t know in English, for example how to transcript words, or how to describe a photo properly. Thanks to them I could finish my first semester very well, with good grades.

For this 2^nd semester I hope to do it much better than the last semester. I want to learn more thing in all the subjects. Keeping progress with my English, and for that I’ll practicing with my friends, my family, listening music, watching videos in English without the subtitles (I only put the subtitles when I do not understand the dialogue), when I have a question I’m going to ask my teachers about anything, and I know they are going to answer me the questions. I know that because they want to help with everything.

My goal for this semester is to balance my weaknesses (Reading and Writing) with my strengths (Use of English, Phonetics, Listening & Speaking). In my point of view if I balance my weaknesses with my strengths, I’ll be able to progress my English with no doubts, with no fear to make any mistakes. If I complete that I’ll be more confident with my self when I use my English.

I have two challenges for this semester the 1^st one is to write an essay, description (of something or someone), a story without mistakes, what I’m trying to say is write something with the correct punctuation. I think punctuation is very important, considering if I write something and I don’t write it properly, the person who will read that can misunderstand the main idea. The 2^nd one is to read a book, a letter, the news and understand all the idioms, phrasal verbs, so I can comprehend the text and the main idea.

My expectation is to finish this semester like the last one with good grades, new knowledge. I want to speak English without being nervous on a Speaking test. Also, I hope to complete my goals and challenges at the end of the semester, considering this is so important to me. English is my life. I can’t live without it.

To concluding this, I’ll finish with this phrase: “Never stop learning, because life never stops teaching”. Buddha said it. This makes sense to me and I connected with my studies and future. I will never stop learning English and how to be a teacher. Life always teaches something new, a new experience, moreover I’m going to use that experience to be a better teacher, also I’m going to use it to keep improving my English, in its skills (Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing).
