"Write a small descriptive paragraph answering the two questions below.

1. When and how did you learn to write (in English)?

2. Have you got any memorable experiences with the process of writing?"

I have just started to learn how to write in English now because I am an undergraduate student. I had already written short sentences before but nothing at this level of writing. At the age of sixteen, I took an English course and I had a classmate, who wrote very well. I really wanted to know how to write as well as she did, but I haven't tried hard enough in the past.,Currently, I'm trying to enhancetrying enhance my writing skills to do better in the present.

''Activity: Have you ever written for any of those reasons? Tell us about it.

Read the text '33 Inspiring Reasons Why You Should Write More' and answer the question 'Have you ever written for any of those reasons? Which one? (say the number of the reason and explain your choice).''

Reason 28
I believe any reason to write is good. The important thing is to convey something to someone or just write, because from big books to short sentences, this can make a difference.

''[Collaborative Task] English Proverbs (sayings)

In this task, we are going to experience the peer correction type of activity. To do so, refer to the Google Docs file attached below.''

Name:Jocely Matias Laurentino.

Saying: Better safe than sorry.

The proverb means that it is important to be careful and precautionary in all situations, because everything has consequences, for example, when you do some work on the computer and you do not save the latest version and suddenly you lose all your work, it is better to be safe than to regret it later. In Portuguese we have a similar proverb that saying "é melhor prevenir do que remediar" and it brings an example saying that it is better to avoid getting sick than having to take medicine afterwards.

I did not have experience writing in English, so this bimester was a little difficult for me. But I developed a lot of grammatical and general knowledge skills during this bimester.
I hope to keep learning, because I still need to be better.
