STATEMENT OF PERSONAL LEARNING GOALS.

The English language is one of the most spoken languages around the world and

everything that we know is being developed based on this language. English is useful

worldwide because it allows us to communicate with others and know about their past

and current times culture.

I am really interested in learning how to speak English correctly because it gives

us many opportunities and makes our lives easier, for example: if you speak English you

can have more and better job opportunities. Also English can help you to continue

studying another career that requires the knowledge of this language.

Throughout this module called Business I, I really want to learn how to

communicate in a written and oral way in the English business world.

I think the most important thing to become good at something is the practice and

the perseverance. To be good at Business, I will do my best into the hours of classes but

also by myself checking all the available sources about effective communication

techniques that will help me to improve my languages skills.

FINAL REFLECTION

Business as a subject has been very useful to me, taking into account that the learned

communication strategies are so helpful to communicate appropriately in the business world

using the English language.

I consider the Business module as a very useful tool while studying to become an

English Teacher because it will allows me to know how to apply important communication

skills and in a near future how to teach it appropriately.

For example here in our Castilian spoken country called Ecuador, “If I have a good

knowledge background of Business, I could teach my future students this second language

in the correct way, and giving them reading, listening, speaking and writing tools helping them

to learn the language and use it in a business context.

To conclude Business as a subject it will help me to improve my language skills and

to be a competitive user of English language being successful in my studies and my future

career as an English Teacher.
