VI. Personal experience or practice in English Langauge Classroom
English is a type of language that is universal and can be used by different
countries. But in other term, it can be a subject. It is the primary language used for
learning and studying across the globe. Since elementary school, there has been an
English curriculum. English played a crucial role in our daily lives
As English has evolved into our system and served as a means of
communication with other nations. We use English to interact people and to
understand each other well. It has become our education system here in the
Philippines school curriculum to be able to understand all subject effectively. For me
English is the key subject to all other subject that will help us in different aspects of
learning. For instants in communication, for example when my cousin from abroad
visit us here we use English as a mode of communication and in that way its easy for
us to understand each other and communicate. Some Filipino I believe is not that
fluent in English and that’s includes me because I only learned it through watching
movies, reading books, listening to someone who is good in English. But by the help
of social media it give a big impact to us in improving our English and reading skills
example I use some apps that helps me in grammar or either app that you interact
through calls using English. English helps us in our daily life/ activities. And by using
English it increases the chance of getting a good job in a multinational company
within our home country or for finding work abroad.
English taught me on how to be a good communicator with different people as
need because it’s a essential tool for us, it enhance my confidence as it deeply pulls
out my skill and intelligence sometimes. It boosts my confidence in a way that I can
deliver a good message with my own vocabulary
