FINAL REFLECTION

In this semester I had the opportunity to study Writing II. I consider this subject
is very important to develop your abilities and skills to write in English. This subject

helped me in two important aspects: writing structure and academic writing skills.
The first aspect was improving writing structure. During this subject, I learned and

practiced specific exercises to write in a better way my opinions or ideas. Writing
structure is a necessary topic that students need to learn, because if you want to write an

excellent paragraph or an excellent essay, the first step that you should know is the

correct structure and the different ways in that you can write them.
The second important aspect was academic writing. I consider it’s another main

topic to improve my writing abilities, because I will need it for future academic
assignments such as my thesis or research works. In this unit I learned how to

paraphrasing or include academic information from articles, essays, etc. It was an
excellent topic where, I acquired knowledge about quoting, citing sources and

paraphrasing methods.

In conclusion, I can say that Writing II was one of the most important subjects that I
had in my career. Writing structure and academic writing were my two important

aspects that I improved in this semester.
