Reflection 1

In february 18th 2013:11.00 a.m., my class (Mathematics Education 2012) got the lesson from my English lecturer, Mr. Marsigit. Before started the course, he explained about the five key to succes. They are will, attitude, knowledge, skill, and experience. He wished to remember us that last week, he wished to make us understood that in this lesson. We need to mix to word his position and our position, he perceived that we are adult students. So, his communication with us based on trust. We believed that he is able to facilitate us and he believed we would do the coursework . 
Trust and positive thinking belong to will (key to succes). His position didn’t give us knowledge. He would emphasize to us for finding the information ourself, because meeting once a week will not be enough if we do not effort. Learn english are us, the attitude are us, knowledge are us, and the experience are us. So he conclude that english are us. He said that we are the actors of our study, activity, skill, and experience.

In his perception, language is life. There are characteristic of languages, for example writing, speaking, translating, hearing, reflecting, recording, answering the questions, collecting the verbs, looking for difficult words, etc. The best way to learn is using communication  approach. That’s the king to learn something language sosiology of aspect of life. Next point was that he also perceive there are two components the language. First is about the form and second is about the substance. So the form of language need substance of language, The substance of language in this class is mathematics education. If you lost in a middle of desert for along time you’re also lost your words. Your soul, your spirit, your life will also lost. If someone speaks without meaning as well as nonsense. 
In the case of language that’s important (structure, grammar, tenses, etc). Starting from our daily life deeping you what ever you are thinking and you’re trying express with english .
