1. Which assignment do you feel was most successful and why?
The assignment I felt more proud of myself was Essay 4 because I was really focused on the way how to improve my writing plus I felt connection between fairytales. Also for essay 1 was a growth within my writing because my professor how to write a well written essay.
2. On what work do you feel you could have done better and how?
I feel I could have done better on the quiz because I received low grade in my part. What I could done better rereading the reading. When I reread the reading I understand better. One thing to share that rereading makes it better to understand. This part I had hard time I would read it quickly but not fully understand the reading, so some days I would get stuck on what I’m reading. Now I take my time to reading the directions and reading.
3. If there was one thing you learned this semester, what was it?
One thing I learned from this semester is to read the directions carefully because I would confuse myself and not understand the directions. That I would remain myself for 30 minutes still thinking what is the next step I should, so my advice for myself is reading it and not being afraid to ask.

Thanks so much for sharing, Hilda! It’s such a beautiful thing to be able to look back and see your growth in such a short time, that must be incredibly rewarding!
Reading the instructions is so important and something I am working on too. Sometimes I can just skim things which lands me in a place of misunderstanding. I shared in my Week 15 post how I often rush through things which impacts the outcome. We are all doing our best and getting better each time we try!
I loved your entry. I also had the same struggle with some of the readings as well and I also came to the same conclusion on solving it. Re reading in order to make sure I understand what’s being asked is most important but I love to read that we are getting it together!
Good Luck on your journey.
Hilda, thanks for the great self-assessment. You worked super-hard this semester, and it paid off. I think if you compare your first essays with your final one, you will feel great. And yes, reading directions is worth the time it takes. Maybe the most important thing you say here is that you should never be afraid to ask a question. That’s a sign of intelligence, curiosity, and interest.
