Individual Reflection

My Journey to Become a Better Learner   (https://keeprecipes.com/sites/keeprecipes/files/how-to-format-a-book.jpg) Hello there, long time no see. I am Tegar from English departement from Satya Wacana University in Salatiga. I am about to talk about my experience and my reflection when I am in that department.
