      Starting a learning portfolio for yourself is helping you to keep a record on your learning. Your learning portfolio should include two main sections: self-assessment and goal setting

      Self-assessment:

      1. First, go through the CEFR self-assessment grid at: https://rm.coe.int/CoERMPublicCommonSearchServices/DisplayDCTMContent?documentId=090000168045bb52 and place yourself in all the categories based on your self-assessment (letter-number combination). 

      2. Take a test here and write down your vocabulary size: https://my.vocabularysize.com/

      3. Answer these questions:

      (1)  What are your experiences with presenting (in any language)? How do you feel about public speaking in general? How do you feel about speaking and communicating in English?

      (2)  Concerning spoken communication skills in English, what do you think you are good at? What kinds of issues do you think you need to pay attention to in order to improve your spoken communication skills in English?

      (3)  When it comes to written communication skills, what do you think you are good at? What areas or issues do you think you would need to pay attention to?

      (4)  In your own words, describe your strengths and weaknesses in communicating in English. 

      (5) What else do you hope to learn during this course?

      Goal setting

      1. Set 3 (or more, if you like) concrete goals for yourself for this course considering the learning outcomes. 

      2.  How will you reach the goals? Make a concrete development plan for yourself. 

      You will return to this reflection at the end of the course. Write in full sentences and paragraph format (not bullet points)! 

      Your text should be max. 1 page long.
