"I made it; Yes I did."

Throughout the whole ENGLCOM course, there are more competencies that I have acquired in reading and writing in English. Some of them are checking the correct usage of words and punctuations, developing the knowledge span of vocabularies, adding APA’s to my literary outputs and putting consistency of the essay; that the point must be clear and interesting. Along with my other competencies I had before, I have developed and improved these skills because of my interest in listening on discussions, brainstorming with other peers and practicing on drafts.


I have improved my communication skills by talking with my seatmates in English like Mohnish and Justin, and it really affected my writing ability in a good and positive way. Also, I have an improvement on my critical thinking skills; like what are the possible ideas to be produced and added to make my work more interesting, and the correct usage of words, as mentioned above. Because of checking many essays from my classmates, I also improved my reading ability such that I am now reading some literary papers, line per line, in less time possible. Even though there are more aspects to be developed, frequent reading and writing practices would do the trick.


My ENGLCOM class gave me not just only the time to write what I know and what I want to share or a passing grade on my performance and outputs, but it also gave me the opportunity to meet new friends through peer evaluations, new skills through basic lessons and handouts, and improved abilities through class exercises and groupings. I met my expectations in my ENGLCOM course like teaching ideas, correct procedures of reading and writing, and sharing of knowledge to one another. ENGLCOM really helped me reach my accomplishments as a student that loves to read and write and I truly believe that this course can help many more to become better readers and writers. I hope that ENGLCOM will continue to guide others so they will be more satisfied with their interests not only in literary aspects but in all the aspects a person possess. I enjoyed ENGLCOM and I wish I could have another class like this.
