To our dearest Mentor,
As I start this term, I was actually scared to take Englcom. Maybe because I know that I’m not really good in English. I have so much to be improved in this field. However, as I was taking up this course, I slowly realize that I had improved. I may not improve a lot or something that totally developed but, I’m happy on what I had improved on. Pieces of evidence are my essays. If I were to ask what essay I should be really proud of, I may answer all of it. It may sound something boastful or overconfident but, I think I just said that because I was personally amazed of myself every time I finish an essay. I may not be the best writer in our room but, I was personally proud that I had it all done. My argumentative essay is like one of my best work. It tackles microfinance, one of my favorite fields. I was proud and happy to finish this essay since I felt that I’m not only writing a mere essay but I’m also learning from it. I’m also learning the things I should remember from such field. As for my other essays, I’m also proud of it. From Italian Cuisine, to Dramas, to what Is Happiness is my entire field. In these essays, I can say that I’m not just writing just because it is a requirement in a subject but, I also write from the bottom of my heart.
As for what DLR was I difficult to achieve, I think they are my grammar and diction. From the start, I really have difficulty with these fields. However, I can still say that at least I improved. As I was writing this portfolio, I can say that I still have difficulty in choosing my word and by delivering them but, I promise to myself and to my mentors that even if the term for this subject is about to end, I will still continue learning and improving my grammar and diction. I will still search for fields that I’m not good at. And promise to myself that I will surely improve to that. As what they say, “Life is a long process of learning”. I know that I will learn every day.
If I were to be proud of about something, I think, those are my essays. I can say that I’m totally proud of it since I was able to write essays or for me, I consider them as masterpieces even though I’m not a writer. I can then consider myself then as a writer.
As a writer, I learn to properly express my feelings towards a certain topic. I was also able to arrange my thoughts as on how I want them to come out. Also, I was able to search things about my desired field and on how to deliver them and describe them as of how I wanted them to be.
I learned that writing is not an easy task. It is very hard to write an essay especially a descriptive one. It is also hard to think of a attention getter in writing an essay because you know that there are different people that are going to read your essays and you don’t know if they will approve your essay or not. It is also hard to arrange thoughts in writing them because it is very confusing on what thought should come first and of what should be next. An ending statement was also hard to do since you have to build a very good closure on your essay and that there should still be something that will be left out of your reader. However, even if it is very hard to write an essay, one’s you finish writing one; it will be great because you can feel a great satisfaction out of it.
I can justify that the revisions in my essays are something valid in a way that I follow all the desired changes that our mentor want to. One example is the changes I made out of my argumentative essay. I carefully follow all the recommendations that our mentor gave like to enhance my point of views or to make a clearer stand out of a certain issue. I think I was able to revise it really good since I follow all of them. Also, on my other essays, I also follow the revisions made by my peer. I follow them since I believe to them. Also, after I revise my essays and read it again, I was able to see the difference of the revise one and not revise one and the revised one sounds better and more grammatically correct that’s why, I can say that my essays really improved a lot.
To conclude, I can say that Englcom is a subject that I may always remember. I even learn how to blog in this subject. In blogging, I actually find it fun since I was able to show to others my writing skills, I just hope that other people that I may not know may read my blog. Anyways, I really had a great time with this subject. Writing is hard but fun when accomplished. I may now consider writing as an accomplishment. An accomplishment and a masterpiece that one day, I can say to myself that I’ve been a writer.
