Student Feedback
Fall 2015 Intermediate Grammar class
9 positive comments
• I think the grammar records help me because I can practice grammar and speaking too. (x 6)
• I think it is helping my grammar skill because when I record it, I know my mistake and Stephanie gives a little bit feedback. (when I had a wrong thing.)
• I like the grammar recoding because I can speak fluency and when I have mistakes in the first recording I didn't forget that.
• I like it, because it can help me organize my language.

• It helps me, but I think 2 minutes is too long
• Sometimes I don't have any word to say about the topic, because I didn't experience a lot about that. So I think it's helps a little.
