Last year, when initially taking the diagnostic tests I landed on Phase 3 of the oral portion and on Phase 4 of Visual, Reading and Writing. It was my stated goal to at least move up once phase by the end of this year. To be frank I think my speaking abilities have bettered in the last year due to constant oral presentations in my French class and interactions with my french teacher. I am able to communicate ideas clearly with only a a small amount of difficulty, mostly in my vocabulary. However, I do not believe I was able to move onto Phase 4 of the oral section due to the lack of constant speaking this school year.
My visual interpretations has improved and I think I was able to move onto Phase 5 of Language Development due to my larger understanding of objects and words. Particularly in the Children's Storybook unit, I was able to create illustrations that accurately fit the French narrative. My Reading comprehension has greatly improved as I have been reading short stories and french news at least twice per week. The news site I tend to turn to is 20minutes, which has short articles that be to be read during commute. This site has bettered my reading comprehension by not only improving it but also adjusting it to a francophone setting. Finally, my writing has also improved by developing new tense usage and increasing my vocabulary which is owed to my increased reading every week. Thus I feel that I have moved on to phase 5.
