It is very difficult problem.

ReplyDelete1. I learnt to write, and make out English lines speedy, and I could get lot of words and idioms through writing. It was tough work and sometime I was bored. However it was also interesting. I enjoyed reading English books and write reviews. I found reading English books is helpful for make English lines. I can learn how to make lines with joy.
ReplyDelete2. Through writing blog posts, sometime I was confused that do I write with correct grammar and words. It is so irritating me. I found I can not write what I want to write and I do not have knowledge to check it. I am feeling my grammar skill and vocabulary are so poor. I took TOEIC test in January, the result of it was terrible. I will study grammar and vocabulary more in spring vacation to be able to make good lines and make good score on TOEIC. In addition, I am going to keep writing my blog, even if the class will be over. I also have plans to keep reading English books in spring vacation. I am interested in American literature now, so I will lend and read many English books. My next spring vacation will be full of studies. I will make it. I swear.
Writing IV, §1c: Reflecting Pool (11:00-12:00)
I learned a lot of things in Writing IV. I learned blogging, writing, typing and so on. I think my computer skill became better than before. Also, I got some knowledge of computer and writing. However, my writing ability is not enough. So I am going to write about them.
ReplyDeleteFirst, I think my typing speed became more faster than last year, because of blogging. I had to write blog five to seven posts every week. It was very hard for me. However, I got used to blogging recently. Second, I learned how to write essays in Writing IV. I wrote some essays in Writing IV for example, movie review, book review and so on. So I knew form of essays. Third, I made my own blog. I learned how to write blog, how to attach media and so on.
I am uncertain of my ability of writing. I want teachers to check my essays. If I made mistakes, I wanted you to correct my mistakes. Also my vocabulary is not enough. So I try to enrich my vocabulary. Also I try to write English sentence from now on.
I was not good at using computer before. However, now, I like computers and writing blog because of Writing IV. Also I could know my weakness. I try to overcome my weakness. I want to learn writing harder to improve my English ability. I do my best from now on.

ReplyDelete1.I expected to learn was improving my English ability. That why I want to speak in English with people who speak in English, and I want to write in English, and I want to understand another cultures. If I understand to read books written in English I can see another world. Also I want to listen in English. If I study hard, I can improve my English ability.
ReplyDelete2.I learned about how to use computer, typing faster, write essay and writing in English in Writing 4. It was good to study English because teacher made home works and I could get chances to watch movies spoken in English. I could improve my listening ability in English. Also there were home works, book reviews, and so on. I also could read books written in English. It made me fun and sometimes sad.
3.I need to lean to improve my own writing is English grammar and learning native English. I want to learn slang. I need to study writing English because I write letters to my host family who live in America. They do not use Japanese, so I have to use English. The reason is that I want to learn English.
1.What you learned in WritingⅣ
ReplyDeleteI learned two things in Writing Ⅳ class. One is how to writing in essay. Another is I became type gradually quickly. I talk about these things.
First, I learned how to writing in essay. Our class was gave a subject two times par a month. We had to write about the subject with following a number of paragraphs, words number. I didn’t know how to writing essay. However, I learned how to writing essay. Essay is constituted introductions, explanation, examples and conclusion. In writing Ⅳclass.
I am beginning to understand how to writing essay. So, I could write essay by deadline every time.
Next is I became type gradually quickly because I had to book review, diary, and essay in blog. However, my computer was broke down and I had to go part time job about 5 days par a week. So, I had to do these things in school library. I had no time. So, I went to grandmother’s house after working part time job but the case became me type quickly. I could type quickly.
I could learn these things in Writing Ⅳ.
２.What you still need to learn in order to improve your own writing
I thought I didn’t have a very large English vocabulary with writing blog.
For example, I often not think of English words. I could find I want to write in Japanese bit I could not hit upon the words in English.
So, I thought I should remember English vocabulary more. I try to study vocabulary every day. Also, I th0ought I have to remember the words. If I do so, I became making gradual progress in my English. I stick it!!!
I would like to talk about the writing Ⅳ. This class is very fan, and I could learn lot.
ReplyDeleteFirst, I'll talk about “what you learned I Writing Ⅳ”(1). In this class, I learned a lot about writing in English. Before I have this class, I don't have enough skill of writing in English. But in this class, we had to post blog 5 times in a week, and we had a lot of homework like book reviews and some essay. So necessary, we had a lot of opportunities to writing in English. I have more time to thinking of English than before.
Also in this class, I could read many sentences which the others of class written. To read some sentences written by the others could be my study too. There were a lot of discoveries. Anyway, in this class, I learned a lot of writing in English and it made me happy.
Second, I want to talk about “what you still need to learn in order to improve your own writing”(2).
I think there is many ways of improve my English skill. Fir example, if I feel that I am poor at grammar and vocabulary, I read books written in English, and some English newspapers. And I think watching some movies in English without Japanese subtitles is also good way.
Through out this writing class, I write a lot of English sentences. But I am still poor at grammar and vocabulary. But I know that ways of improve my English skill, so if this class is over, I want improve my English skill.
Finally, I feel my English skill will grow up from now on. So I never stop studying English, and I want write more difficult sentences in English.
1, In this class, I expected to increase my English vocabulary, because writing is to write sentence. If I didn’t many words, I can’t write. So I expected to increase my English vocabulary. And I expected how to make long sentence. I’m not good at to make sentence in English, because I didn’t have confidence my English grammar. Through this writing class, I expected to progress my English grammar.
ReplyDelete2, I learned how to write long sentence and how to compose sentence. First, I couldn’t write sentence in English, because I didn’t learned about writing. But this class did me how to write sentence. Besides, I found how to paste pictures and movies in my blog. This is very good things because I can use other scene. For example, I have to write other class assignment, then that was so useful for me. And I could type faster before. One year ago, I couldn’t type fast, because I have never been type in English and I didn’t have computer in my house. In this class, I tried to type fast before. I did practice and I brought a computer. Now I can type fast before. I’m really happy.
3, Now I still need to learn is to increase vocabulary and idiom. When I write my blog and do home work in writing, I stop my hand, because I don’t know how do I should write that I want to write the expression. If I know a lot of vocabulary and idiom, I can write smoothly. So I have to need learn a lot of English vocabulary. And I need to read a lot of English book. The books have a lot of words. When I read it, I always look up words in my dictionary. This work connects writing skill up and other English study. I want to skill up my English.
I learned many things through writing blog in Writing IV. First of all, through writing blog, for example many essays or reviews, I learned many English words. When I think about my essay, sometimes there were a lot of words that I hadn’t known yet, so I study for my vocabulary so much. Thanks to thinking my essay, I could improve my vocabulary.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I learn that continuing is very important through writing blog. At first, in the beginning of this spring semester, I couldn’t write enough to tell my opinion, but now I get an ability that write and tell others my opinion. I think I get it through continuing writing blog. For example, I learn a lot of Grammar through it. If we don’t have any Grammar knowledge, we wouldn’t be able to write anything in English.
In my future I want to communicate a great number of foreigner, but my present ability of English is so far from it. Because of shortage of my English ability, I must still need to learn to improve my English skills, of course it include writing ability. I think writing ability is very important. For example, when I send mail to foreigners, I need writing skill of English. E-mail is very useful tool, and it also necessary tool for me. I often send mail to my English conversation teacher who is my friend’s husband, and he always teaches me about my mistake.
Moreover, I want to chat with foreigners on the Internet, and I think I can still improve my writing ability. Internet is very useful tool for who want to improve writing ability. Chatting with others on the Internet is very fun. I think I can both enjoy chatting and improve my writing skill. It’s one of good way to improve writing skill, I think.
In the end of my essay, I want to tell you. Thanks to your class, I can improve my writing skill. At first, I thought that it is difficult and tough work to write many blog posts, but now I don’t think so. It is difficult to write many posts, but we can get not only vocabulary but also grammar ability and many other skills, for example I learn that continuing is very important. It is very important notice for my life, I think.
1. I learned 2 important things about using computers in the writing class.
ReplyDeleteFirst, I learned it’s important to continue writing about my life in English to improve my English skills. Writing in English about my dairy life was difficult for me, because I couldn’t find good expressions fast for what I wanted to tell. However I continued my blog post, so I became to find good expression faster than before in writing in English. With continuing writing, I got more vocabulary in dairy life and school so on. I posted about variety junre. For example I posted about foods, my school life, and book reviews. They made my lenge of expression of writing in English more wide, so I could show my dairy life to foreign people and I made friends on the internet. I liked to post about food, so I got vocabulary about foods.
Second, I improved my typing speed in the writing class, so I can use this skill for other classes and reports. In the future people need to use computers more than now, so I wanted to be able to type in English fast and know how to use other skills.
2. What I need to learn to improve my writing.
I have several things to write sentences, so I want to improve them.
I need to write more clearly what I want to tell to the readers. I often write things I thought, so I'm trouble to the conclusion. I learned to do brainstorming, so before I write sentences, I need to make brainstorming and think of layout, and then I will start write.
I need to improve the grammar in English. It is difficult, but important thing. In the writing class, we didn’t learn grammar, so my some blogs which I posted were wrong.
I enjoyed learning English and wriing very much. I'm pleasant that I made many friends not only in the class but in the world by using blog. Thank you very much.
1.I learned many things from this class activity. When I took this class first time, I didn’t like to use computers. Because I was not good at computers. But from this class have started, I had homework of this class and I have many opportunity to use computers. I have thought computers don’t need for me before I took this class. But now computers are very important for me. I often use computers now. Computers are very convenient. I learned many things in this class, but the most things what I learned in this class, how to use computers.
ReplyDelete2.I often to use computers from I have took this class, but I am not get accustomed to type English sentence.

#What you still need to learn in order to improve your own writing.
1,In this class, I learned a lot of good things and got useful computer skill.
First, I tried to read many books which is written in English and I thought about the impression in English. I am not good at reading in English. But I tried to do my best.
Second, I learned some good and useful computer skill in this class.
And I wrote some kids of essays, movie review, book review and diary on my blog. At first I didn’t post some articles very often but I felt that blogging is interesting! I checked some unknown words on my dictionary when I write about something, and I read some books to write book review. And additionally, I watched some films to write the impression on my blog. It made me fun.
And I think I became type with computer faster than before. Now I check my and my friend’s blog almost everyday to get some good news and information. I want to make my blog better.
2,I know my fault in my writing skill. That is I have a lot of unknown English words. To improve my writing skill, it is important to write something at least everyday. It is fine that these are diary, book review or movie review. All I need to improve my writing, it is “to continue”.
In addition, I reading and think something in English are also important to improve my English skill. Because after I think something in English, I think I will become that I want to tell to my friends or somebody it in English. And I have to study new English words. There are many chance to improve my writing skill in my daily life. To by a new textbook, learn on internet and to read good articles. I have to notice that the chances to improve my skill in my daily life.
And I have to learn not only English words but also useful idioms. These must make my writing skill better and better. I think my swriting kill will never improve if I don't notice these chances. To improve my writting, I had kept my diary in English. Sometime I don't know how to write my feeling but I never give up writting in English. I do want to develop my writting skill.
Continual study is a prerequisite to success!!
I learned many things in Writing class for this semester. I had to many things in this class and at home about this class. I wrote about what happened today, essays movie reviews and so on. It was difficult to keep writing them everyday.
ReplyDeleteFirst, I learned how to use computer in this class. I didn’t know how to use computer and I couldn’t use it, but in Writing class, I had many opportunity to use it. I had not known to put in a You-Tube movie on my blog. When I could do so, my blog page became better.
Second, I learned how to write good essays using like a map. I didn’t like to write essays before, because I didn’t come up with what to write. Brainstorming makes me more easily to write essays or reviews. It is very big change to me.
I learned many things in Writing class, but I need typing speed. I will have to use computer after graduate, so I want to improve typing speed before graduate. I will practice using typing game or keep writing my blog. It is useful not only English writing but also Japanese writing with computer.
Next, also, I still need to expand my vocabulary. I always have an electronic dictionary, because I don’t know many English words. I will memorize many English words before graduate. I will keep bring a wordbook and read it.
In Writing class, I could learn many things describe this comment. I want to make use of it. I want to keep writing my blog.
I’ll expect about learning, in this time. I am a college student now so I learn about English and other culture and so on. We can learn English in good situation such as a college but some people can’t go to a college. However, nobody can’t study English. Everybody can study by oneself. Learning is taught by teacher. I can learn because I am going to a college but am I studying by myself? It’s maybe not. Just going to a college, just learning by teacher, not studying by myself. I think that after learning, I should review in my house. Learning is fortunately thing so we have to listen to teachers’ lecture. And we will be able to get the knowledge.
ReplyDeleteThe next, I’ll think about what I learned in Writing IV. First, I could write a lot and a lot in this class. In addition, I wrote many blog in my free time. So I became to be able to write a lot English expression. In this writing class, we learn about how to use a computer and how to take in some pictures and how to make some paragraphs and so on. I could learn many many things.
Finally, learning is a very fortune things so we have to listen to teachers’ lecture. I am already second grade so I have no a lot of time to learn in this college. I think that I have to learn and study in parallel everyday. In addition, I would like to make use of learning in this writing class. Also, I would love to go on writing blog. I should not stop writing and typing.
1. What I learned in Writing IV, 1c,
ReplyDeleteI learned how to write this class in this semester. I could improve my ability in English better than before. I didn’t like to write long sentence in English before. But, I had to write essay in English this class. At first, I couldn’t write smoothly in English. But now, I am used to writing in English. And my vocabulary increased. I could learn a lot of words naturally while I am writing. And I also could read book in English. I could read books without dictionary.
Moreover, I didn’t learn only how to write in this class. For example, receiving comment from other student. I could know another opinion. I could look my essay objectively. And giving comment to other student, it is also important for me. I admired other student’s essay when I read their essay.
I can tell my opinion in English. It is very happy for me. It is important to continue.
2. What I still need to learn in order to improve my own writing.
My English is still poor. So, I need keep on writing after this. For example, I need to keep on reading some English books. And I need to keep on writing my diary in English. Moreover, I’m not good at English grammar. So, I need to learn English grammar as perfectly as possible. And I want to write sentence as long as possible more. So, I need improve my ability in English more.
And then, I set my goal. At first, I read 4 English books for a month at least. Next, I write a blog 3 times for a week. I didn’t do this goal in this semester. So, I want to achieve.
I like English. So, I want to learn English more. And I want to keep on writing in English! Writing is useful in the future.
I've leaned how to use computers, especially about blog functions for a year. As the result, I can use smoothly now. Also, I got English skills. It was good for me to write English. I didn’t know how to post before, and I was so slowly to type letters.
ReplyDeleteIt took many times to write blog. That’s because, I was not good at typing. However, I got typing skill to write blog every day. Writing blog is good for me, because I want to get more English skills and typing skills. Therefore, I’ll keep posting from now on.
Also, I get some computer skills in the class. I used and learned many functions. For example, to attach media, links, and photographs. These functions are so useful and effective to improve my English skills. However, I think that I need to learn more.
Next, I write about learning plans. I’ve studied English using computers, but I want to improve my English skill more. Then, I have to make plans of study. Spring vacation is coming soon, so I’ll continue posting. Also, I must start studying for my future.

2. What you still need to learn in order to improve your own writing.
I think that I wasn't enough to do my best. And I didn’t study hard everyday. For example, I didn’t exert myself to finish the homework by due. So I had to keep the present of due. I wasn’t wrote my blog this term. And I didn’t write a book review and a diary. So I think that I’m having trouble learning how to use a computer. After this, I must write everyday.
I learned about not only English but also the way to use a computer and to express my idea on my blog in Writing IV. I have never known the way to make the blog and write essays, but I could know them and I knew that it was so good for me to post.
ReplyDeleteAt first, I could type the keyboard before I learn them in Writing class. However, I could came to type more speedy thanks to this class. And then, I learned how to make sentences in English with computer. I was surprised at sentences of English because there is some difference between Japanese and English. I knew them for the first time in this class.
Next, I thought that my English skill has improved. I wrote about my idea and essay on blog frequently. Especially, I wrote about my daily life and I learned English words and phrase. So I think I can make use of all of them I learned. And then, I enjoyed watching movies. I came to try to watch movies in English and consider what the movies tell us.
I learned various things in Writing IV. However, I thought I should ask my teacher more when I had some question. And I should use English actively in this class. If I had tried harder, I could have improved my English skill of speaking and hearing.
Finally, I think it is important to continue to post to my blog because I think blog is a good opportunity to tell my idea to many people. And then, I think that I can learn English more with the computer. I enjoyed this class.

ReplyDeleteAnd I notice that I need more computer skill. For example, We use internet everyday. Internet will be evolution everyday. I have to catch up it.
I must study English more, because I don’t have knowledge of English enough. I tried to write a blog every time, but I always can’t write English sentence like clockwork. I study English by my friends. My friends are good my teachers. They are very kind for me and they are very funny teachers. Learning and teaching are very important. I can study smooth if I teach something to my friends. It is “kill two birds with one stone.”
Sometimes I study English by movies. I like foreign movies. I always watch movie in English, because I can hear real voice and more interesting. We can study anywhere if we thinking about English.
My cell phone’ setting is English. I use it every day. I watch English words eveydays.
2. I feel deep regret that I could not study deliberately. I could not make my good plan. I had to make my plan and did. I had a lot of things that I would to talk about for you, but I did not. Because I did not have plan. I would like to make my plan and my diary on my blog.
I think, plan is very important. I need my life plan. However, at first the plan of the test is necessary for me.
I am action group. It is my good point, but It is my weak point some times. I don’t like calculation. I don’t like arithmetic. I like spark and dream. I want to enjoy almost things. I like to try a lot of things. I really enjoy them. Obama said “change!” I hope so. I always try to good change.
I studied English writing during 1 year. I learn many things. I was hate to writing, and I was very poor at writing English. However, I like writing English, now. So, I learned how to writing English.
ReplyDelete1.What you learned in Writing IV, §1a or 1c
In this class, I learned for writing. First, I learned paragraphs. Until now, I don’t care about writing English. However, those classes were learned for paragraphs.
