That is the first version of the activity. As you can see, there are many errors related to spelling and verb conjugations.

My first experience to write in english it was, when I decide to known more about this language, problaby one year ago. Even pass this time, still a little difficult for me to do it, in a more fluente way. English classes are present at school, so with the help of my english teacher, I deepened into studies, about listening, writing and reading, but must of the time I take classes by myself. In this process, I remember how funnny and hard as it was created each new sentence. Also still a challenge for me today.

That is the final version of the activity. After the teacher made the corrections, the errors were corrected.

After this activity, I tried to improve my writing and increase my vocabulary.

That is the first version of the activity. I chose this reason because it was something very close to my real experience in the English language.

"11. Write because your tenth grade English teacher told you that you had potential."

Yes, the 11th is the closest to my real experience about write in English. My teacher always encouraged me to study this language, saying that I had potential. So that motivates me not to give up even with so many challenges which exist in learning a new language.

And the final version, after correction and suggestion by the teacher.

First and final version (no corrections)

It means that life is not only made of good times but also of difficult and sad times. In Portuguese we say: "Nem tudo na vida são flores". I chose this one because it's something that always occurs in everyone's everyday life. Good things don't always happen to us, and knowing how to deal with those moments is what makes the difference. That's what I always think when some difficulty comes my way

I learned that writing in English is much more than just knowing the correct rules. We need to know why to write, for who, and how to do it. The way my writing in English has evolved is incredible, and it was thanks to all the support I received in these classes and activities. I hope that in the next bimester it continues to evolve.
