Confidence

My confidence in English has vastly improved over the year, and I feel as if my skills have improved a lot as well. In the first project I was very unsure of my skills and very shaky with my sentence structure. However, during the period of the year, I think I have gotten a lot better with my English skills with all of the class’s, learning and debating I have done over the year. My debating was a good example of this. In the first debate I did I didn’t really score well in it, as the material was not that good and I didn’t really believe in it that much. However in the debates this term I did really good and am really happy with the material and the pronunciation. I am hoping next year to improve my skills and confidence even more.

Marks

I am very happy with my grades this year as well. as with the confidence, my grades at the beginning of the year were kind of shaky, but as with the confidence, they too improved as I got better. Overall I am quite happy with my grades, averaging in the high seventies. When I got a bad grade I would really try to do better on the next one and vice versa starting a sort of pendulum effect. I think I am doing quite well in English, and hope to continue to do the same in English for the rest of the year and my school journey.

Involvement

I have been quite involved this year in English and I am continuously getting involved in lessons, projects and group work. I am getting more and more skills out of this and it is a really good way of learning. It is more fun that not getting involved, and makes you learn more. Next year I hope to continue getting involved as much as I do this year.

Collaboration

Similar to involvement, I think I collaborating wit my groups quite well, and it makes it more fun, adns gives me more learning. Although on the group project of the film, I did not work too well with my group and it made it so that our project was not as good as it could be.

Learner Agency

The learner agency in English is really good and allows me to earn in many different ways, rather than the basic was that other subjects sometimes teach. It makes it so that I can get more out of English than I can in other subject. I am also a more visual and different learners to most, so this really helps me learn quite.

Organisation

Organisation is something I have always struggled with and I have never been very good at it, and at the start of the year, It was reflected by my sentence and essay structure, where it was all over the shop, but through much learning I have managed to get better at my sentence structures. Another thing that it can help with is the submitting of projects, on time and being able to work on it with a good plan to submit your projects on time. Similar to the sentence structure, I used to be really bad at this, but I am slowly getting better at it as I learn better organizational skills

Skills

Some skills I have learnt in English include, learning poetry devices, sentence structure and organization skills. The poetry devices were really interesting to learn as I had no idea about them before so learning about them was quite cool, and was an interesting experience. The sentence and essay structure has been something that has plagued me for ages but earlier this year I finally started to understand it, and get better at it. This kind of ties in with the organization skills mentioned above, and my organization skills have also improved a drastic amount this year.

Goals

Next year I hope to improve on all of the organization skills and other skills that I have learnt last year and I hope to improve my learning by paying even more attention and collaborating with my group even better. If I do all of this, I can put all of these skills together and maybe by the end of the year, I can maintain an average of 82% which would be a new record for me, and would make me feel a real sense of progression as I get better at all of the skills.
