Name: James Christopher L. Tangga BC-12 Z If I were to listen to myself way before I entered BC 12, I would laugh at myself for I thought this wasn’t really important but turned out it helped me more in terms of my grammars. I remember that before I took up this subject I never really knew all the processes of reading. There are so many more different prospective or ideas on reading than I thought. I never imagined the number of research studies that have been done on reading. After reading these studies, I was able to find ways to determine areas of weaknesses of my reading comprehension and then I was able to correct them one by one. The development of reading is a far bigger concept than I thought, it widens the readers’ perspective about reading and imagination while going through words. What I learned after about a month or so about this study is that it can be helpful in many ways. I feel like I have a better understanding on how the reading process really works. I did not realize how complex learning to read really was. It helped me a lot in communicating with other people in English. While taking this subject, I have learned and improved some of my grammatical errors and punctuation mistakes back in high school, though I’m still not that great in writing which this paper explains I am a bit better now than before. Essays, reading comprehension, writing short stories, or writing reflection papers. These are just the things that we might tackle during the semester and these are also the things that we do almost every day, this subject helps not just me but everyone. I can’t imagine the world without communication, the world without proper language which is now slowly happening, I can’t imagine the world without these kind of subjects that help us improve and maintain our skills in writing, that help us widen our imaginations and lots of positive outputs. Basic communication, as what I view, is one important thing that others don’t see at first and disregard but realize its importance when they really listen through the words said by the professor.
