Final essay

Introduction
The class is 2nd period in Wednesday, but I arrived at university before 1st period is done and I wait it is done in front of class room. Then I enter the class room as soon as it 's done and I turn on the computer, because I need more much time for typing speed trial. I often delayed to send E-mail to teacher in former semester, so I cared to don't delay in this semester.


We use computers for Writing class. Using computers is getting more important for us, because there are classes which need to use computers and almost all work need computers so computer skills is necessary for our future. I will refer about my computer skills.

Before Writing III
I used to use computer almost every day before writing III, but the purpose was just looking Internet. I didn't have opportunity to use computers for other ways. I learned many techniques about computers, for example how to put pictures, links. those techniques made my blog more interesting.


During Writing III and IV
After I started to receive Writing III, The number of using computers was raised extremely. At first I confused the class, because I was not good at use computers, because I didn't get used to type computers. Therefore I couldn't type quickly and accurately. However I continued assignment of the class, My computer and English skill was progressed slowly.

Spelling
I often fail spelling when I type English sentence. It means that my vocabulary is no good, I have to remember correct spelling. When I use 'Word', I often use 'spell check', It's very convenient system. It find my spelling miss and teach correct spelling. I want to be good at spelling and dont't want use 'spell check' system.



Reading

Book review is hard assignment for me, because I have to read books written in English. I don't like to read long sentence in English. In previous semester, I rent only too easy books, there are many pictures and short sentences, but in this semester I'm trying to read more difficult book than before I have read. Some books were boring and difficult to read for me, but others are interesting, especially I like books introduce about foreign country. I could finished to read the books and learned many things about foreign countries.

Viewing

I often watch more foreign movies than before. I write movie review after I watched the movie necessary. If the movie was very good for me, I want to write review more long to tell everyone more information and my feeling about the movie. When I watch foreign movie, I watch in English with Japanese subtitle. I hear English actors speak carefully and I compare their English and Japanese subtitle, I can find some interesting things. I can know some words foreigner often use, some words are dirty words. Then I often be impressed about translator, because they translate very well, fore example There are words Japanese can't understand and there are difficult words to translate other language, because the words are peculiar to English. They can translate those difficult words to Japanese . Thanks for them we can watch foreign movies.




Typing

I have to do 'Typing speed trial' first in Writing class every time. I don't like it, because I have to type many and quickly within remit time, if I delay to send e- mail I'm treat as absent. I'm embarrassed every time. I aim 100 words every time, but I can reach 100 words only occasionally. It concern about theme. If Theme of the day is good thing for me, I can type more, but The theme is boring, I can't type many. I want to type many about anything.


After Writing IV

I will continue to read English books and watch foreign movies in English after Writing IV, because those must be useful for me. I have to study English after the class to raise my English skill and for my future. I want to get a job which need English skill.


Conclusion
This class is one of the most troublesome class for me, because I have to post on my blog many, especially book reviews and essays were very troublesome. However I didn't miss deadlines, it was too good. I will never forget this class and connect next stage.
The teacher is foreingner, ofcause he speaks English, so it was difficult to understand what he says, I and my friends talk every time' What he said?'. We were too comfused. However The instractor helped us every time we were comfused. She is too kind, she told us what we have to do. Thanks for her I could hand in assignments everytime. We appreciate for her.
I want totake Beaufait' class after this class.
[800words]
