ESP Vocabulary Tests

It improved my vocabulary but this was a bit hard job, because I had to learn every definition by heart and it took more time. It is hard to say if tests were easy or hard. There were some tests when I looked at the test paper and suddenly forgot everything that knew.

Writing Summaries

I think that my summaries are well written. It wasn’t very hard to write them and it was good experience especially to learn how to write a sentence not copying it or quoting, but in own words and transform informal text to formal. I agree that I do some grammatical mistakes, but in my opinion more important is to understand about what I am writing than some misspelled words.

Feldman’s Online Exercises (Multiple Choice, Filling in blanks)

This task was one of the easiest for me. I liked to do it. This was good experience to check how good I understand text and how much I remember from it. Comparing results with colleagues sometimes showed where I should pay more attention, what I missed.

Online Listening in Class

I found it very interesting. Here I performed very well and liked to find out if sentences were true or false. Texts were easy to understand and sometimes funny.

Traditional listening to cassetes (in class)

Sometimes it was hard to understand what people were talking because speakers talked very fast or not clear, also in native language. After some this type listenings I found easier to understand words they are saying.

power point presentations

This task at first sight seemed to be very easy, but when I started making slides I realized that is quite hard to decide which information is necessary to be written and which I can just mention. Also it was a bit hard to talk in front of all grout, because I have not very good speaking skills.

speaking inpromptu

All comments, opinions sharing, question making is just participating in class activities. It was naturally done so I can’t say that it was hard or easy. Maybe just there: to create a question in English appropriately, because I first of all think about a question in Lithuanian.

short talks (raedy-made talks)

In my opinion this task has 4 stages:

• searching information for given theme
• sorting the most important or interesting facts
• comparing information to understandable text
• practicing

Sometimes is hard to talk if I am not sure that I can do it well, or afraid of misspelling some words, or my speech can be understand not as I want.
