FINAL PROJECT   

Taking into account the previous questionnaire, write a paragraph expressing the abilities you have or the activities you can do very well and the ones you are not so good at. You can add other activities if you want. Read the following example.

 

MY ABILITIES AND DISABILITIES

I am a very communicative person in fact; I am very good at languages. I can write poems, songs or stories for example, I can also speak in front of many people without being nervous. My friends say they like to talk to me because I am a good listener.

In the contrary, I am not so good making things with my hands like drawings, paintings or ceramic, even cooking is too difficult for me. Every time I invite people to eat at home I need my husband’s help. I can’t fix machines either.
