#4-Final Reflection on Learning

To make short, it was nice choice to take this course!

Before coming NUS, I had chance to read the review of other exchange students. At there, I saw lots of compliments about “Professional Communications.”

So, I tried to take this course when I came here. However, I failed several time. I was very disappointed. Finally, I could take this course.

Here, I met 9 nice class mates, and also professor. With those people, I could more understand about the lecture. They were very passionate about learning.

To be honest, there were lots of things to do: blog, peer teaching, interview, and group project. When preparing those, I was very tired and stressful. Seriously, I cried once when I got harsh feedback while I was sick.

However, now all is done, and I think that all of them was very helpful for me. If I couldn’t take this course with all these people, I couldn’t increase my English and communication skill.

I, will be the next people who recommend this course for pre exchange student!

#3- Reflection on Team Based Proposal

Team Based Work.

This time team project takes more than 1 month, with other 3 people. 

In addition, there were lots of works to do. We have to write the proposal, make PPT, make and do the survey, and write more than 20 pages paper. Our team's subject was "low birth rate of Singapore."

When beginning, I could endure the burden of work. However, when time past and I got some other 4 projects, the works looked out of my control. There were lots of works everyday, and it wasn't easy to find Singapore's information in English. If I were in Korea, I could better since I knew when to find the information. 

On top of that, since I couldn't have many chances to write down or say something in English due to the Korean English Education system which just teach and test the listening and reading, I couldn't better. Although I tried best, my works seemed not enough for our teammates, they had to change a lot.

I was very angry about myself, and felt sorry for my team mates. My poor English makes my teammates change my work, and that leads me difficult to memorize my script in presentation since the final script was different with my first version. 

Actually, since this team project needs  "professional work", my team couldn't help but change my all works. 

Through this long time team projects, I have learned lots of things such as team based work, English writing, and time organizing skill. Also, it taught me a lot to work together with people from other majors like engineering and math. It was very different from working with business major students. 

I was lucky to work with good people! Thanks Cass, Miran, and Chi-cheng.
