To begin with, It is obvious that my performance is better than in the previous semesters. In my opinion there are things that I had learned better than others. Thus, I am going to review my performance on different skills of ESP course.
Firstly, to my surprise my performance on ESP vocabulary tests were the worst in last session. Logically It would be conversely. On the other hand, modules were more confusing in this semester. In fact of these, the performance on this skill were worse.
Secondly, comparing my performance on summaries writing with first and last semesters, I can observe that I didn’t increase my grammar skill, but I learned how I can better generalize texts. This improvement can be for several reasons. For example, I learned more English words, thus I could use they in forming my thought.
Other theme I would like to focus on my performance on moodle tests. We had been doing these worksheets only for two semesters. Comparing evaluations, marks of last semester is higher than in the first. In my view, I had done better multiple choice and filling in blanks exercises because I made every effort. Similarly, in this session we had done analogous online exercises in order to better prepare for our ESP vocabulary tests. In my opinion, it helped for me to get higher marks and also it was interesting to check knowledge.
Likewise, I assume that my listening skill increased for several reasons. First of them is that I had been listening my classmates and instructress for three semesters. The more I listened them, the better I understood what they spoken. Second reason is frequent online and traditional listening in class. It is without doubt that when I listened these, I increased my listening skills because I listened people, whose grammar and pronunciation are correct.
In my opinion the worst is my speaking performance. There were these tasks of speaking: impromptu and ready made speech (short talk). I didn’ enjoy both of these activities, but in my opinion I spoken better when I were ready than I weren’t.
The last exercise is Power Point Presentation. Comparing all three presentations, in my opinion the best was the last. It was due to my habit to class and in fact oh this I didn’t experience stress when I spoken publicly. What is more, through the time that I had been learning ESP, I increase grammar, speaking and listening skills. Thus, I could use this knowledge when I prepared for presentation.
In conclusion, it is obvious that course of ESP gave me only benefits. Due to different activities through all semesters, I increased my performance in various skills.

Power Point Presentation is the best task which I enjoyed it ever.
