Interaction

Blog Post #7

Walk through door...

Me: ....
Security Guard: Hello, good morning
M: Good morning.
S: No need to be shy.
M: Oh-no, I'm not shy.....
M: Is Micheal Cohen present.
Security Guard: Yes, I'll go tell him your here.
M: Thank you
S: Here, you can wait in the cafeteria.

I fell that talking to others at the school board is very lax and amusing.



First task...

Daniel: So your first task is to check the french website for errors
M: Okay
D: Then foward it to me by email
M: So, can I have your email so that I may foward it to you

Writing...

M: Alright, so I'll get back to you on the website in a few days.

When interacting with others concerning work I will be more formal

Improvement

My english has not improved so far during my internship because of the fact
that I am a born anglophone.

Listening comprehension

Since I have the advantage of being a born anglophone, my comprehension
toward various subjects is without error. Therefore the undertanding of instrutions
is to it's fullest potential, because one self is aware of various slangs, complex words,
and expressions.

Accent

My english accent has not changed at all during my internship. There are no
words or phrases that I have used through out my internship that I have had difficulty
with. My vowel pronunciation has not changed, also I have not had any misunderstandings
based on pronunciation. In additon, there are no words that I have encountered
any struggle with.

Fluency

In accordance to fluency, I am perfectly fluent in English but still open to learing.

Humour

As for humour, there's not much of a difference from English and French as
long as in the end you understand what is being said.

The work week

Always give 100% at work.......
12% on Monday
23% on Tuesday
40% on Wednesday
20% on Thursday
5% on Fridays

Accuracy

I am most of the time accurate when speaking towards others.
