Reflection # 1

The English language is almost an international language where everyone around the world in modern and advanced countries know some English to communicate with others therefore this Reading and Writing Subject is essential in my life to teach me more about the English language to increase my communication abilities.

Our teacher Mr. Gregory Virhovnik is teaching us how to summarize and reference articles. i learnt how to pick up the important points in the article to make the article short and easy to understand easily. My work is not bad nor good but our teacher is helping me.

Moreover, Mr. Virhovnik has his way of making us submit our work in time and its by signing our attendance depending if we bring our work done or not, its a smart way of making us all up to date and following deadlines, its harsh but needed, this shows how skilled he is in his profession.

I therefore conclude that studying in a class with this atmosphere that has friendly students and an understanding professional teacher helps a lot with learning and have fun to an extent where our work meets the high expectations of Mr. Virhovnik.
