SELF-ASSESMENT

At the begining having the blog was a bit strange for me and I didn't try my best but now I have learned new things to make a great blog. I liked the most the videoclip Project I enjoyed a lot every time I watch the video. My greatest strengths I think there are gramar and speaking and my weaknesses are vocabulary and translation. I don't thing that I'm confused with anything. I go to particular clases and I practise my english when I go abroad in holidays. I have to improve with vocabulary and expresivity. I ler¡arn new things about the australians and the maoris.
Cristina also thank you because you help us a lot with everything!!!
