Final reflection

In  my first composition off the blog I didn't use the tenses. Also I used a lot of similar expressions and I repeat things that I had write it. Now in my compositions I use a lot of different expressions and synonims, I always search new ways to say something more formal. Now I have more vocabulary and I learn phrasal verbs too. In my opinion I improve my expresion, now I don't have the sames difficulties when I began write.Also I do my essays speak form topics more mature
( first composition final composition )
In my first oral presentation in first of batxillerat I was so nervous. Now in my oral presentations I'm very nervous, this is a thing that I can't change in this time. But in my last presentation I had imporved my pronunciation that in first I was do. I have to improve my fluency when I speek because I get stuck. In my opinion I have to practice more my oral expresion to get more fluency in my future presentations. (first oral presentation, last oral presentation)
My bests composition is a disscussion of Internet because I did a good structure of the composition, I used connectors, formal vocabulary, good expressions. I did it in the third term of this course. I writed about the topic with a good expresion. I did a mature composition with an introduction, arguments and conclusion. I did a good reflection of the topic and I contributed with good arguments.
My best oral task was the last oral composition that I did last year in first of batxillerat. I did with a partner and we did it about disability people and things related. This was the best because we did a good structure and we put examples and particular cases. We deeped in the topic but it was very dinamic and clever and also we were very relaxed and this help us to did it better . We got a good mark, the best mark that I get in all my oral presentations.
(best composition, self evaluation (I don't have the video))
In my conclusion I improve my level of english than when I began batxilllerat, but I have to improve it more, never is to much. The english can help me to find work in the future and also it helps me to live .new experiences and new people. I think that I improved my expresion and also I have to improve my oral expression.

Dear Mr. President of the United States, Barack Obama

We are writting to complain about the article number five of the human rights, that explains that no one shall be subjected to torture or to curel, inhuman or deagrading treatment or punishment.

Personally this article is violated in a lot of countries, normally in the developing countries, because these countries people are in poor conditions, and they are more vulnerable to violate this human right. Moreover in these countries is easer to mistreat the women.

We think that it is important to do something for these people and not to prop up these terrible actions. For these reasons we propose to law down laws to stop the violations of the human rights.

Finally, we would like people to be conscious about that and to make possible to put out this information in the magazines or newspaper, because people must realice and make something to improve it and eliminated it.

Yours sincerely,

Paula and Joana.
