For me this course was very useful, i learned things that i have never done before and i think i will use them a lot. For example, i learned how to make a resumè and a cover letter, wich are things that i will neeed to find a job or during my work. It was also very important for me because i learned grammar rules that I didn’t know, and some things that i thought  i was doing right. My evaluation is 6 out of 10, because I got some poor grades during the cours because i did not dedícate enought time to the subject. I think i would change the quantity of readings for the quizes, and the order of the information in the box.

In this course I learned how to make a resumè and a cover letter and for me it was a great experience because I would like to work in USA as a cook and now I know how to make these amazing tools properly. I would change the social media because it is a poor form to evaluate us, and the percentage it's just 10%, I think it is better an essay or another evaluation. My evaluation is 5 out of 10, because I got good grades doing the tasks, but in the quizes and the exam I got a poor grade.

The course of English 5 was very interesting since in it I learned grammar rules that I didn’t know, in turn I learned how to do my résumé, a cover Letter and a Memo. The truth would not change anything of the content to this course. My own evaluation would say that it is 7 out of 10 because I didn’t dedicate the necessary time to the course because I was pending with the thesis and other courses that I enrolled.

This is the first time that I have seen an obligatory subject virtually, the previous one was an elective; since my grades on the elective one were amazing I thought that I would do the same in English V; however, it was difficult. I consider that the material is indeed useful, but I may not see its importance on my life yet, I am sure that in the future I will be grateful though.

What would I change? I think that maybe the quantity of readings for just one quiz, sometimes I got confused as the questions were very specific and I didn’t know to what article it refer to, and the media discussion to something more practical (an audio maybe).  Finally I give myself a 6, because I did not dedicate enough to English V as I did to other subjects.

For me the hardest part of the Simulation Discussion was make the video and upload it to youtube because I had to edit it and I had never edited a video before so I had to watch a video in youtube  to learn how to edit it with movie maker and upload it. The nicest part when I watch the videos of my team because  I really was laughing a lot  while I saw them acting and speaking.

Thanks to the simulation of the speech, now I got to know the numbers about the current situation; although we all identify the situation, many of us don’t know the specific numbers or important aspects of it.

In my opinion, the most difficult part was to define the script, which part would do each one, as well as was difficult to record us. On the other hand, the funniest part, but difficult too, was recording myself. I am not good at public speaking and even more if is not my official language, but despite all these barriers, I did it and I am so proud of  facing this challenge and overcome my stage fright.

Due to a lack of communication with my fellow partners, I wasn’t able to do the media discussion activity; Nevertheless, I was very surprised given the fact that this is a virtual class and we had to meet each other to work on it. I would´ve wanted to fulfill the teacher´s expectative, I am very regretful for the situation.

Conducting the simulation discussion was quite a challenge. I think the most difficult thing was that we could not get together; therefore we had to film ourselves and then edit all the videos to make the delivery; another difficult time was to find out how a publication is made on YouTube, because none of us we had been do a video in that channel. But despite all the difficulties I think the most beautiful experience was that we managed to fulfill that great challenge.

The hardest part of the Simulation Discussion was getting together to record the video, in fact, we couldn't get together so the more comfortable option for all of us was recording ourselves and then gather all the videos to make only one. The easiest part was to be recorded at home and not having to do a presentation in front of a whole classroom. Writing the script was entertaining.
