Looking back at my writing from Quarter 4, I can really feel how much I’ve improved. At the beginning of the year, writing in English felt stressful and I wasn’t confident in my vocabulary or grammar. But now, It's still awkward but feel much better. I make mistakes, but I trust myself more. It doesn’t feel like something.

One big thing that helped me improve was studying for the TOEFL. I originally just focused on memorizing words to get a better score, but over time, I realized how useful those words were in my writing. Before, I kept using the same simple words, and I struggled to express more detailed thoughts. Now, I know that choosing the right word makes a sentence clearer.

While looking back at my essays, I noticed that my writing is becoming more expressive. I still have areas I need to work on. Sometimes my writing feels a bit choppy, and the flow between sentences isn’t smooth enough, and fixing the order of the sentence is always a problem for me. I also still forget little grammar rules, like capitalizing the first letter of a sentence. They’re small things, but I know they matter if I want my writing to look more professional. I also want to get better at connecting ideas, right now, some of my paragraphs feel like they’re floating alone instead of being part of one clear story.

Putting this together made me realize how much I’ve improved, but also reminded me that writing is a long process. I want to read more, write more, and keep building my skills. I used to be afraid of writing in English, but now I see it as something that helps me express myself in a more confident way. Im excited for next school year!

Over the past two months, I’ve really started to feel more confident in my writing. I don’t have to rely on a translator as much, and I can get my thoughts across more easily. Looking back at my older work, I can see how much I’ve improved not just in grammar but also in how I organize my ideas. Writing used to feel like a challenge, but now it feels more natural, like I can actually enjoy putting my thoughts into words.

One thing I’ve realized, though, is that the small details really do matter. I still catch myself forgetting to capitalize the first letter of sentences, which seems like such a simple mistake, but fixing it makes my writing look cleaner and more polished. I’ve also noticed that when I rush, I make little errors that could have been avoided if I had just taken a minute to read over my work. It’s frustrating, but at least now I know what to focus on.

Overall, this portfolio has been a great way to reflect on how far I’ve come. I know there’s still a lot I can improve, but I feel proud of the progress I’ve made. Next quarter, I want to slow down, pay more attention to the details, and keep building on what I’ve learned. Writing doesn’t feel as intimidating anymore.

Over the past two months, I think my writing has improved a lot, and I’ve needed a translator less. Working on this portfolio has really helped me reflect on my progress and notice areas where I still need to improve. One major issue I’ve identified is that I often forget to capitalize the first letter of sentences. It’s a simple rule, but I know that paying more attention to it will make my writing clearer and stronger. I’m learning that these small details are important and can make a big difference in the quality of my work.

I’ve also realized that I sometimes have trouble expressing my ideas in the best way. I want to communicate my thoughts more effectively, and to do that, I think I need to build a stronger vocabulary. Sometimes, I find myself using the same words over and over, which makes my writing feel board. By learning more words and practicing how to use them well, I believe I’ll be able to share my ideas in a more presided way. This will also help me make my writing more interesting for readers.

Another thing I’ve noticed is that my writing can feel choppy, and my sentences don’t always flow smoothly. It’s something I need to work on, as I want my writing to be easy to read and understand. I’ve been thinking about how to connect my ideas better and make my writing more binding.

Overall, putting together this portfolio has shown me how far I’ve come and what I still need to work on. It’s motivated me to keep writing and improving my skills. Reflecting on my progress. Even though I’m happy with how much I’ve improved, even though I know there’s always more to learn.
