I really enjoyed ARW in autumun term. It was hard for me to write this long essay. However, Mark gave me great advices to write good essay in classes and tutorials. Although I need to improve some points to make my essay persuasive, I was satisfied with finishing my essay. In addition, 20x20 presentation was valuable experience for me. I had to prepare and practice for it for a long time. However, it was useful to improve my presentation skill. Moreover, I enjoyed listening to other section mate's presentation. I was able to know various issues and solutions. All of them were meaningful for me.
I think the class with JLP students was the most valuable things for me. Their Japanese was better than my English, but I tried to communicate with them in English. They gave me advices to make my essay better. The class was nice experience. I want to take classses with JLP students more and more.
Lastly, thank you, Mark. I really want you to teach us not only in autumun term but also in winter term. I will do my best to improve my English skills.
Hi Yuki,
ReplyDeleteNice final ARW reflection! I am glad to hear that you enjoyed and felt satisfied with finishing your essay an 20x20. I think that shows you made efforts to your best ability.
Nice note on the JLP Exchange too. I hope you can find ways to interact with international students more while you are here at ICU.
On this blog, you have written thoughtful summaries and reactions on all of the readings and left a record of the step by step process of your essay as well. Nice work!
It was a busy term, but I hope you were able to learn many things from Autumn ARW to take forward to your future!
I hope you will continue to blog like this and record your reactions to what you learn day to day.
Mark
