Reflection

To me, the subject 9225 – Communication and Service in English was mostly a revision, since I’m already familiar with the language.

​

It was above all nostalgic, especially to “give a name” to the verb forms, since they now come naturally to me, I ended up forgetting their technical names.

​

I learnt new and more formal expressions to use in meetings, as well as in letters and emails.

​

As for the assignments, we researched some traditions in the United Kingdom and created a meeting simulation about a product, related to the business used in the previous subject.

I enjoyed this subject, although on some days the content was too easy for me. However, I understand that some classmates had more difficulties with the language, and I still enjoyed the listening exercises, which were funny, as I liked being evaluated in this language.
English is a language that I like and use daily, both orally and in writing.

​

I practiced how to compose email and letters regarding meeting schedules, product presentation, complaints and responses to such complaints.

​​

I believe that every course should have this subject, as a way to highlight the importance of this commercial language.
