Brandon Fournier Serrano Prof. Mario Medina
Basic English Secc.150


This year 2009 I have been presented with the task that not only I’ve had to face with over the years but also has been lately one of the most challenging quest in my daily english life. It is the task of learning how to correctly spell and form english hand writhing. It’s an accomplishment of my part to be able to learn such area of difficulty.
How ever I was determine to take a step and confront my problems.

During the semester as I was assign for lab classes of enlgish I used deferent websites to aid me in my studies and to guide me with more teachings. Mean while days turn into seconds where December was just around the corner I manage in some way to improve my knowledge. I was able to learn important keys that had unlock some missing pieces inside of me, even do some locks still need to be broken in order to fully master my skills. Thanks to modern age equipment and programming it help me to improve in areas and better my knowledge.

It was very helpful being able to use computers and the professors for advisement but not everything was that effective. There where some websites and programs that did not have any real motivation for learning. Some didn’t have any quizzes; others didn’t have enough information, some website where hard to understand and etc. Also the areas like quizzes and reading exercises came to be the most effective tool there was. It helps me to put my mind to work and practice with the material previously studied.

It was difficult having to run true all these websites and having to read a lot but it helps me to learn. Some activities where not so effective for example some of the reading exercises where a little easy and others didn’t let you see if you got a good grade. Still it was a fun experience sitting down in an air-conditioning room surrounded by computers of high quality and just do work that involved my main language.


My goal was to better myself when it came to write in english. I came to the conclusion that one will always have your doubts but there’s always a solution.
I needed to better my writhing skill because it is an important matter that is needed for daily life. Also I wanted to prove to my self that I can change for the better and make a difference to my ways of life.

I usually enter lab class the days that it was assign to me and it was fun. The web sites like “writing machine and “Ego4u.com” successfully helped me a lot with its information and easy searching gave me a powerful tool that will lead me to success.

Other websites like “Writing DEN” I did not find them to be as useful as the others. It left me incomplete, like it still needed to give me more information then what it was providing me. Also it didn’t really grab my attention because I found the web site with a poor presentation. Hopefully it would be useful for others in need of its assistance's.
