Reflection for this term

  This term I had a meaningful study in this class. My presentation skills, communication skills, and my vocabulary skills improved by qualifying in this class and I also found new perspectives. In this class, I learned many things from different directions.
  First, my presentation skills grown up. Mainly, the ability to discover issues and a skill to have a smooth presentation. My ability to discover issues grew up by looking for problems in the school and learning about widening point of view. I learned that it is important to look for problems by pretending that you are a visitor that came to this school for the first time, or a teacher, and of course students. There would be many problems that other people can see but you can not see. So, before we start, we walked around the school thinking that we came to the school for the first time.First, I thought it is very difficult  to do this, but I it was very enjoyable and not as difficult as I imagined. Pretending like a different person was very fresh and I liked it. However, there were still limitations on discovering for problems. We found many problems imagining that I am a different people, but there are many more things that we could not imagine enough. For example, to find problems that teachers feel, we need to use what teachers use and have a student, and act like them. It is almost impossible to do this, so I thought we could have an interview to our teachers to find problems. Also, pretending as a visitor perfectly is very difficult, and there will be many things we could not see because you know about it and get used for it.
  Second, my communication skills improved too. Working in this group, working with Jo and Ren was the first time for me so I was worried about it for the fist time, but actually it was very fun, and I think we have builded up each others communication skills together. I learned that we have to show off our team work in the presentation, not only working together. In reality, audience feels comfortable if the presenter are on a good mood. I felt very good when I hear other group calling each others name and saying thank you to each other. I don't want to forget about this because it is very easy to do this and I also think this is a very important thing.
  Third, my vocabulary skills improved in this term, and this is my most poor at, so it was very good for me to improve it. The apps that Mr. Paterson told us that can evaluate the vocabularies that we had used in the paragraph was a perfect app and I am still using that to improve my skills. I learned it is important to use high-leveled words usually, like writing blog posts and sentences each day. I think my variations of vocabularies will increase like this, not just remembering it.  Also, working on presentations and speaking to everyone made my use many kinds of vocabularies. It was difficult to choose words that fits my feeling the best very quickly and say it to people by being careful for audiences misunderstanding. However, I understand how it is important and how it develops my skills so I want to practice doing something like that.
  In this class, I got to learn many things, not only English, a skill that we can use in any ways. I am now making use of these skills to have a presentation(Japanese). This class was very enjoyable, fun,  international, and meaningful. Thank you for your meaningful class. I am looking forward to have more classes in the next term.
