WHAT SHOULD I'VE LEARNED FROM ENGLISH VIII

It was a good and enriching experience, I assume that that must be what the students that seized this course should fill about it. What can I say about it from my own view; at first, if you are not willing to do a lot of activities, weel you aren't made for it. That has been my case. The course, or more appropiately the teacher Doris M, shows you doorways to a small world, but a world in the end, of interaction and furthering of of own's abilities and capabilities in the mastering of the English lengauge. Second Life (with her virtual alter ego, Pionia Destiny, as your guide through SD world), her myriad of sites and pages about teaching English, the katamy, and other ones I fail to remember by the time. I didn't seize anything of that during this January-Abril course. I had, and still, to deal with learning issues I thought I had overcome, but it seems that not at all.

What I feel I've learned? well, learning means between other things how to apply something one has come to know, more than just you getting it known. In that sense I've learned very little, but I have the lessons material that has been given to me and my fellow students during the course, so it will be always available to re-learn it. In brief, the two things I'll remeber most about this course are: the steps and stages in redacting, the paragraph structure, and that I feeling of having a lost chance
