Me as an English Language student

As an English language student, I developed my skills of working effectively and efficiently on a variety of different pieces such as comparative essays and opinionated articles. What I found the most challenging was to quickly identify techniques used in a piece of work, such as the task in paper 1, and would also be unsure that if the techniques I identified were meaningful enough to write about to a good standard. To do well this year especially in paper 1, these skills of mine will need to be improved. 
Despite this, I enjoyed the topics learnt such as the effects that accent and dialect can have on your speech, most probably because I come from Bristol which has a unique dialect. Consequently, I use multiple traits from the Bristol dialect such as "where you to".

  1. It is important to know what to work on and terminology is key - try and consider the interpretations that the specific audiences would have because of the GRAPE. That will be key to seeing what is effective language that is worth talking about.
