Self-Assesment

The English class this term has been great, we have learnt a lot of new vocabullary about the units we study, but also vocabullary that people use on their daily live like idioms and also expressions that Michael taught us.
I really liked Michael´s classes because he is so spontaneous, and he is classes are quite fun.
I did well in speaking and I learnt lots of new vocabullary very easily, futhermore I got used to answer questions with full sentences and not answering them with just a short sentence. I think I didn´t get confused about anything in particular but I have to work in translation.
Outside english classes, I also practise this language in an academy to prepare my self for the fist certificate exam. I learnt a lot about the history of advertaising and a lot of vocabullary used in America with Michael.
In Itc classes we have learnt how to use Gimp, a photo edition program, this program could make a simple photo look great.
In P.E. we have learnt how to play handball and also lots of facts about our health. We also have started practising badminton and self defense.
It hass been a great term. See you on Monday.
