SELF-ASSESSMENT OF ESP LEARNING

The aim of this writing is to assess my ESP learning.
WRITING SKILLS.
In my point of you, I am quite good at writing summaries. Although, sometimes it is difficult to understand a context of the text and to express basic points. I think, that my ESP vocabulary is not bad. I have learnt a lot of new words which are considered with my profession. But sometimes it is difficult to use them while I am talking. Another writing skill is dictation. Sometimes I have some problems with dictation. I can't exactly to hear what is saying. However, it is good thay I can understand the mane idea. I haven't no difficulties with contribution to weblogs, it is easy for me.
SPEAKING SKILLS.
In my opinion, I have some problems with participation in class discusions. It is so because sometimes I am affraid to talk in class and it is difficult to express my opinion. I think that I haven't no problems with presentations. The most difficult thing for me is to find information which is necessary. In my opinion, speaking in pairs it is a good idea to improve my speaking and I am quite good at it.
LISTENING SKILLS.
In my point of you, usually I haven't no problems with listening activities in class. It is not difficult to understand the text if it isn't in authentic English. Mostly, I can understand listening text and do exercises, especially when I haer the text twice. However, when I have to listen to podcasts it is more difficult, because speakers talk very fast, there are many unknown words and I can't understand mane ideas. I think, that I should practise more and everything willl be good.
READING SKILLS.
In my opinion, usually I can understand home reading texts, although, sometimes there are unknown words which I should translate. I think that it is good that I can understand basic points. Class reading is not too difficult for me. Comprehension exercises usually I can do easily. Talking about computer tasks it is not difficult to do and understand them but sometimes I have problems when I have to find some information online. In my opinion, bilingual quizzes are good because I can improve my vocabulary.
In conclusion, it can be stated that my English isn't good enough. I want to improve it. The most difficult thing for me is talking but I think that I will be able to cope with this problem.

Yours self-assesment is properly and very interesting. In my opinion you evaluated your-self correctly. It is very important for learning to realise what you must to improve.
