Reflection of retelling myth


In ESL class, I have to retell my myth story through the point of view of the character. I am going to retell 'Eros and Psyche' story and my point of view of the character is Eros. The SLR that my project best reflects is Thinking Creatively. When I write this piece of writing, I had to think creatively because I changed my point of view into Eros so I should create some stories. If the point of view of the character is changed, the story is totally different. I added new story creatively. I also searched on the internet so I got information from there. I wanted the story would be creative.

When I wrote this piece of writing, I was proud of it, because I was so enthusiastic when I created this piece of writing. I was trying my best to write this piece. I think I have done well. I think my point of view of character is supported well throughout the text.

However, I have to focus on my grammar such as verbs and word choice. Especially my word choice is little bit weak, so I have to memorize more high level vocabularies. I also should organize some paragraphs because sometimes the sentences are flowing and don’t be connected smoothly. Those are my weakness part of my writing skill.

The most challenging aspect of this assignment was grammar and word choice. It was difficult to choose the correct word. So I kept searching on dictionary and thesaurus. Those dictionaries were very informative and useful. I could know many words from there.

From this assignment, I have learned how to organize each paragraph. If I write next assignment, I can make the writing more clearly and informatively.
