Final Presentation

My Spring Semester, 2014 at UMB

What do I want to bring this semester to

next semester?● Next semester, I want to bring the

writing skills I learned in my First-Year Seminar and English 102 courses, to my next classes.

● I know that if I just practice these skills more often, I will get better at executing them into my future papers.

What do I want to leave behind? Why?

● I want to leave behind my nervousness for asking questions.

● Sometimes I go out of my way to answer a question, but at other times I become nervous, especially in my Arabic Class.

● In that class, I would hesitate to speak when she asked to say sentences for the fear of speaking wrong since most of the class consisted of heritage learners.

What am I most proud of? Why?

I am most proud of my ability to try my best on assignments and seeking help. Even though sometimes I do not write the best essays, I try my best to be as clear in the paper as possibl.

What do I regret? Why?

● Going back to one of my previous slides, I mostly regret not participating in class a little more.

● letting that nervousness get to me● I know teachers look at participation,

but I also want to be able to present my answers when i know them.

How have I surprised myself this

semester?

● This semester I actually studied more for my Arabic quizzes and I received good grades for the most part.

● The fact that i got those grades was a surprise only because I did not think I would be able to remember vocab. so well.

GPA next semester?

● I do not. I predict that my GPA will be about the same due to the fact that my writing was not that good in English 102 this semester.

● Even though I do not think I will faikl, I believe that my grade in that class will be average.
