Reflection note

-
This semester was a bit strange, and the last two weeks were tough because we needed to write 2 essays. I didn’t really enjoy writing these works. That’s because I didn’t understand the purpose of it. I still haven’t received any feedback on my first works and that’s why I feel that there’s no improvement in my writing skills. The thing that was useful for me is that we were practicing in developing a plan for the essay.

    I'm sorry I did not comment on your essays on time. I did not manage to do it because of the amount of work I have had. Also, because your last name starts with "ya", while I usually start reading the posts from the top, so unfortunately did not manage to comment on your works in time. Sorry about it. I'll change the pattern next semester and will start reading the works from the bottom up

   Do smartphones increase or decrease our productivity? Can you picture the world without smartphones? People go into panic mode if he or she were to leave the house without these technological devices. Some people describe leaving their smartphones at home as "feeling naked." It’s also impossible to imagine a nowadays workplace without them. The major question is how they may affect our productivity. Do they help to perform tasks or only reduce our concentration?                  The way of life in today's society has changed due to the introduction of smartphones.

Learning English is a great pleasure for me. I’ve learned it since primary school and it’s never been easy for me. Anyway, I enjoy learning the language and I try to improve it every day. Now, as my level is good enough and I’m able to speak almost fluently, my main goal is to expand my vocabulary. I don’t like the idea of writing down some words and further memorization. There is an application that helps me achieve my goal. It is Quizlet.  https://quizlet.com I’ll tell you how it works. You can create your own sets of flashcards in there. Once you get the hang of it, it takes only five or ten minutes to upload even large sets of materials to Quizlet.
