Self Reflection:
I am grateful that I can joint and I also like this program: English For Communication For Real Estate Students. Through this program, I understand the importance of English communication skills in my study and workplace. I have gained one of the Graduate Attributes, which is the Communication skill in through this program. Communication can be defined as the process of understanding and sharing meaning. Good skills allow me to have good communication and connections with my lecturer and coursemates in my studies and I can communicate well with customers and colleague after work. This is important for me if my job requires a lot of face-to-face or phone contact with customers or my colleague. Actually I have problem with my English communication skill, which is lack of fluency, lack of environment, and courage to speak English in the public. Other than that, my English vocabulary is less it make me feel difficult to speak English as well. To solve my problems, the speaker encourages us to speak English more. I will read more English articles, books, or watch videos and movie to add my English vocabulary as well as communicate with my friends in English to speak it smoothly.
