SDLP 110: Learning Journal 7

[Constantinos Beauclair-Kolomtsas]

I have made considerable progress since the beginning of the year in my comprehension and reading skills of advanced Greek texts. I have developed my speaking presentation skills, but I still need progress to prevent the common mental blocks I get when speaking for long periods of time. I have decided to abandon my writing goals all together because of the overwhelming pressure that will put on me if I have to work on my comprehension, reading, speaking, along with writing. The reading of books have been very effective in reaching my goals for the semester and so I will be starting my second book which is on Constantine Palaiologos, the last Emperor of the Byzantine Empire.
