Haryono Arifin wrote a reflection letter to his writing instructor, Ms. Angela, thanking her for teaching him writing this semester. He felt he learned more from a native English speaker than a local instructor. While developing main ideas came easily to him, Haryono struggled with paragraph structure, grammar, thesis statements, and punctuation. By the end of the semester, he felt his writing ability had improved as he understood the importance of following writing conventions.

Reflection Letter
Dear Ms Angela,
Firstly, I say thanks to Ms Angela who has teach Writing in this semester to us especially
to me. I proud and happy could learned about writing directly with foreigner lecturer like you. I
feel something different when I learn writing with local lecturer and native lecturer.
I have to be honest that in this semester I found some difficulty in writing.I feel that I
have no difficulty when I should develop the main ideas in writing. But im still difficult when I
should make a tidy paragraph. Not only about it, I have some problem in grammar, thesis
statement and I was not really pay attention about punctuation. In grammar, sometimes I still
little difficult how to make a good sentence. I did not really careful with it. In thesis statement, I
did not pay attention about it. I usually I forget that write a thesis statement is a sentence but
consist 3 reasons and the reasons should be parallel. But now, I understand about how to make a
thesis statement. Then, about Punctuation. I usually forget how to put capital and make a good
paragraph. When I send email to you, I never adjust paragraph with font times new roman, 12,
double space and so on. I just realized at the recently time. But, now I understand it.
Summary, I feel that my ability in writing is improved. I compare with my assignment in
semester 2. In this semester, i write the unusual writing. I learn over all how importance of
writing. I think, the big problem is I often to be forget how write based on rule.
Sincerely,
Haryono
