Reflective Essay

My Experience in the Academic Reading & Writing course

My name is Ali and I'm student in Abu Dhabi Men's Colleges. I studying chemical engineering and I study in this semester Academic Reading & Writing course which I'm going to talk about it and what did I benefit from this course.

In the first, I had problems with vocabularies. When I want to summarize, I found the essay is difficult because it had many new vocabularies for me. After doing some summaries, I found some vocabularies repeated so it was easier to make the summary. Also I learnt from this course how I make reference for the summary. In higher school, I learnt how to make reference for my research: and it was different because I was searching about the information for the reference but now in the college I only copy the URL for the website's essay and put it in bibme.com to get the reference and write name of the author and the date. Really, it is better to use bibme.com website than the old way and it was very useful for us to know various ways to make a reference.

I enjoyed so much in this course and I hope to do more summaries to be better and better.
