81 Looking back – planning ahead Now is a good time to look back on your English learning so far and update your plans for the rest of the year. Start by looking at your learning portfolio again. Is it up-to-date? The portfolio will be a great help answering the following questions. Talk about your answers with a partner and ask your teacher for support if necessary. STRATEGIES 27 a 1 What are the things you can do well? Do you feel most confident writing texts? Is it easy for you to understand texts you read or hear? Is speaking most fun? 2 Which areas do you need to improve in? Do you make too many mistakes? Should you spend more time studying new words? Is it difficult for you to use a range of tenses? 3 Maybe it’s time you tried something new? What about introducing regular study sessions with a friend?
