When I decided to take ES2007S, I knew that I had to step out my comfort zone, that I had to expose myself to what I am weak in, and that I had to spend a lot of time and effort in the course assignment. Now, at the end of the course, I must say I do not regret of my choice and, if given another chance, I will choose ES2007S again.
If I had not taken this module, I would not give myself a chance for blogging, where I learnt different viewpoints regarding the similar topics. After finishing each post, I enjoyed reading my classmates’ post as well as their comments. However, I do regret and apologize that I did not participate actively in blogging, being afraid that my poor expression will “spoil” my classmates’ posts.
If I had not taken this module, I would not realize so many problems in my presentation. Fortunately, Ms. Lim and my classmates had pointed out them for me. I will keep these comments in mind and will refer to them when I am giving a presentation in the future.
If I had not taken this module, I would not meet Ms. Lim and my awesome classmates. Within these thirteen weeks, our friendship is forged through class interactions, blog post comments, presentation evaluations, team projects and lunches after lessons. Because of you, my life of a graduate student was so colorful. Thank you, Ms. Lim and my friends. I wish all of you the best in the future.
It is the ending time of ES2007S, and it is also the starting time for me to apply what I learned. I will always remember this wonderful learning journey.
PS: I hope my fifth role in the last lesson did not scare you. It is just imaginary.:)
ReplyDeleteHi Wang Chen,
ReplyDeleteTo me, you are one of the most humble and sincere person I have ever
met. Your ability to listen and assimilate information quickly with
ease are abilities that I really admire.
Your welcoming nature makes you a great teammate to work with. And I
am sure many of our classmates can tell that you have improved a lot
since you last presented during peer teaching.
Juggling the responsibilities of a husband and ES2007S is simply
amazing. ;) I take my hat off to you, and look forward to meeting up
with you again.
Haha I still remember that when we heard your role, there was a very short moment of awkward silence. I remember looking over to see if you had a ring on your fourth finger.
ReplyDeleteI believe everyone can see a huge change in you now, from the first time you stepped into the class.
Anyway, I will be needing your guidance in the coming years.. Thank you in advance.
Dear Wang Chen,
ReplyDeleteI commend the efforts you'd put in for the module, be it peer teaching, writing application letter, blogging, proposal or oral presentation; and am glad you'd put your best foot forward and given your best!
It is certainly not easy to step out of your comfort zone and to take up an 'additional' module as an auditor. I'm also gratified to know that you found so many of the ES components refreshing.
I do hope you continue to blog - I do enjoy reading your posts =)
