A) My evaluation of my first artifact conversation is one of success! I was very pleased with my pronunciation and with my confidence in speaking. I felt comfortable introducing myself and saying where I am from. I feel as if I would be able to understand this in a conversation with someone in Israel as well which makes me very excited. I think I need to keep practicing without the words in front of me so that it becomes more natural and smoother off of my tongue. All in all, I was very pleased with artifact one.
B) I am also pleased with my progress on my learning goals for weeks 4 and 5. I have learned the vocabulary for my family from my language partner and have decided to use this for another artifact. Because family is so important to me, I thought it would be valuable for me to know these words. I can remember learning these words in Hebrew school growing up and it was a nice feeling being able to remember them after such a long time. I would say that I successfully met my learning goals of learning greetings and vocabulary about my family.
