Reflection #2 (Personal Reflection)


The main target of this course (LSC Academic Reading and Writing) is to improve students English language level in reading, writing and communication. Furthermore, to explore knowledge in new vocab, this is needful in business communication and daily practice. In the beginning I have learned how to write very good summaries. Our instructor Mr. Gregory has taught us how to pick up the main points in an article and how to write it in the correct form. Also learned how do quotation and citations. Additionally, I have learned the way to define the outlines of the main points of the article in order to write an essay the most special think I interested while learning it is referencing. It supports my essay and making my writing strong. All this skills could help me in my major and my future career. Later on, if I have any research or report to do in future, I will know how to do it in a simple and scientific form the most part I like it in this course is the way we are learning and doing our homework because it helps us to improve our vocabulary. For example, from our projects I learnt a lot of new words and new information. Also, my reading and writing skills get improved and less mistakes. In addition, The vocabulary quizzes helped me to realize that each word can have different meanings in each sentence depending on the order of the word and wither it’s a noun or a verb or…etc.

My biggest challenges in written communication are using more formal way and choosing the right vocab that suite the subjects that I’m writing about or trying to deliver threw my scientific articles. Another challenge is to avoid repetitive info and keeping my writing within the average of word required. Overall, while studying in this course I have got better understating In English language. , I would say thank you to Mr. Gregory for teaching me and I really enjoyed your course very much.
