According to the Levels of Competence, I would rate my speaking in the late Intermediate/mid-Advanced category. I feel the most confident about my speaking abilities, but I am not sure if I can label myself as the last category in Advanced because I am not sure if I am up to that standard yet. I have definitely improved my speaking by taking SDLC all these years, but I always have room to improve! If I rank my speaking in the Advanced category, then I would rank my writing in the mid-Intermediate category because I have been working on this skill next. I practice my writing on a daily/weekly basis because I text my parents and family in Korean, which is a great improvement because I used to not even have the confidence to text in Korean! Lastly, I still need to work on my reading skills but I have been doing pretty good with this skill because of the book that my learning partner and I have been reading together.
Through SDLC 113, I will mainly focus on my reading skills by finishing the book that I mentioned above. The book that we are reading is part 1 of a 2 book series, so if time permits, we may move on to reading the second book! So far, I have been doing great with increasing my speed in reading and also my comprehension, but I just want to work on developing this skill more. Along with this main goal, I will also work on developing my speaking and writing skills in a more challenging setting.
