Write a final reflection about the course. Did you find it useful? What would you change about it? Evaluate yourself from 1 to 10, where 1 represents the least effort and 10 the maximum effort. Explain why.

            I took this virtual course because it was my last term and I have a lot of things to do, so yes I found it very useful.  English V gave me too much knowledge about my professional life and that was really important for me.  If I need to evaluate myself, I think that I should have 9, although I didn’t have the highest grades, I learned about my mistakes and corrections, and I was always on time with the course.

Reflection about your Simulation Discussion. What was the hardest part? What was the nicest part?

     We did our simulation discussion about cosmetics; we have created a face cream that is named “Two Face Cream”. I think that the hardest part was identifying the problem, because we wanted to simulate a real problem that can happen with some cosmetics. The nicest part was meeting new people and work all together, share our ideas and act in another language.

Name and explain 1 reason why having a flawless grammar is important in Business English.

            Having a flawless grammar makes the writer look more professional. In my opinion is mandatory that everything you write doesn’t have grammar mistakes, because it’s a way to say that you really know about what you are writing. On the other hand, sometimes there are grammar mistakes that can change the complete meaning of the sentence and the message could arrive in a different way.

What, in your opinion, is the hardest part of writing a Résumé?

A résumé is a document where you can summarize all your education, work experiences and everything that can bring important information about you, in order to find an interview for some particular job.  In my opinion, the hardest part of writing a Résumé is the first time that you write one, when you are just graduated and don’t have enough experience, you only have your degree and maybe some courses but you have never worked in your career. You don’t know how to write the information, what you should say or what is the correct way to present your Résumé.
