FINAL REFLECTION

I think that I have improved on my english and my task blogs compared to last year. I have relized that when I have to write a your say I have more vocabulary and I do it easily than last year. I also think that I have more things to tell, because last year it was so difficult to find something to write about and now I have more ideas. I think the activities that shows my best level of english are your says or writings in class, but something related with my pleasures because I get excited writing. I improved my english mostly from the series I watch, but I think my writing skills are improved thanks to the blog and other tasks. Also, I think that the oral presentations are useful because you are forced to talk in english so I learned more about pronuciations or fluency. Reading a book in english was really useful too, because I learned a lot of vocabulary. 
On the other hand I don't find useful news, because although you read and you get information I think that blog task it's enough. Also, I don't find useful evaluating other presentations because you don't really know how you have to evaluate and it is so relative because you may think that somebody is very fluent and another person can think the opposite. 
I would like to keep doing your says, but not news, also I would like to watch more movies or series because although it seems a nonsense it's the way I learned more. I would like to do kahoot once in a while too, because although it's not very useful for grammar or other skills, it's funny and it is useful to disconnect and do other things than grammar, voacbulary, listening, reading and all that kind of stuff.

Dear Mr Magan, 
I am writing to ask you about your post in Workaway. I am 18 and I just have finished my secondary school education and I want to take a gap year to travel around the world, so I think that travelling with Workaway is a great option economically for young people.
I am interested to know more details about how I can help you. First of all, I would like to know about my schedule, how many hours I am expected to work each day and if I my working hours will be in the morning or afternoon.Additionally, I am keen to know if I will have some free time too. In my free time I plan to see and experience as much as I can of the local area- do you have any suggestions or advice?
I look forward to hearing from you. I'm able to do a skype interview if you want to know anything more about me.
Yours sincerely,
Paula Montané.
