Final Reflection
I liked the topics that we have covered in these units because they explain the process of
each one and give us the techniques in different ways. This month it has been very useful
to improve my knowledge, the classes were good, we were not in a hurry with the
evaluations, the teacher showed a lot of patience and understanding with each of the
students. The teacher's attitude was good, the way he handled the class, how he
captures our attention, and the tasks that she left us were very useful to begin to unfold.
Another thing that I liked was the good relationship that existed between the classmates,
they were all very respectful, the good vibes and that they want to participate in the
activities encourage the person who is presenting the class at that moment and makes it
more dynamic than when they do not participate and everything is in uncomfortable
silence.
In this cycle I don't think there are many challenge in the class, I consider that in general
everything has gone correctly and that there have not been many difficulties or almost
not one that I remember.
In conclusion, I personally feel that this has been the cycle where I have learned the most
and I have gained more confidence and the things that I have learned I will use them
because they have remained in my memory.
