I
consider that my performance during the semester was as I expected since the
very beginning. I was eager to learn as much as possible even though I was not
so good at writing. Among the things that helped me to work well in Composition
I are: to attend classes, to pay attention and participate in classes, and to
deliver homework assignments. Furthermore, the entries of my first Composition
journal were basically where I put into practice all my knowledge of the topics
studied in classes even though the ideas didn’t come to mind so easy as I wanted,
most of the time when the topics were controversial and I didn’t know what
position take in order to write my point of view about them. Finally, I started
to write down what the teacher have asked for and deliver almost all of them on
time. All that valuable information, I got during the last of the course, will
help me to understand better not only Composition II, but also the rest of the
subjects I will take then.

To be sincere, in this term I have felt very lazy, and I do not know
why. Sometimes I did not want to go the university, and also I feel asleep in
the middle of the classes. Those actions did not help me to understand
everything in classes. I used to ask my friends after classes about what I did
not understand, they always helped me. If I have to give a grade to my
performance in this term, I would give me 5.50. However, I have attended all
the classes, delivered almost all the homework, and participated in classes when
I had the chance to do it. My grades have been very acceptable, but I am not
completed happy neither with my grades nor with my performance. Thanks GOD I
have not failed any exam, but I would have to study more to get better
grades;anyways , I am so proud of me because I have learned a lot about faulty
sentences that are very important things to know in order to avoid them and to develop writing skills.

This semester was hard to me because I did not know anything about writing,
the rules that I had to follow, the punctuation even in Spanish I had
difficulties in that, so I was afraid of writing. I admit that sometimes I did
not want to do anything, but then I noticed I had to change my mind because that
would help me in my writing and also in my
grades . I tried to make my best effort I know I could do a better job,
for example, participate and study more. However, I consider that I learned
many things and improved my writing skills something that I am going to
continue do it. Since I thought that I was good at writing because the grade of
my first entry, but then I realized that was not true that I had to study hard
to be a good writer. I paid attention in classes, also I tried to make my
revised version of the examples that the teacher presented in classes, and I
consider that helped me. Even though sometimes was difficult.
