Over the two week break, I personally felt as if I progressed in learning my native language, Tagalog. During the first few days while relaxing, my parents as well as my grandparents would tell me to learn more Tagalog by reading Filipino articles or papers since I would end up forgetting the lessons taught to me by my Filipino teacher. Although I complained of having to read it, they would insist me to go on so that I would be able to speak the language better. As I read aloud to them, I happened to struggle on certain words as if they were almost a tongue twister but after finishing with some flaws, I read it over until I was able to pronounce the words correctly. Before taking a Filipino subject in school, I hardly knew any words and their meanings and I ended failing my first quiz. I thought it was one of the most hardest classes I took due to all the directions being explained in Tagalog to be very confusing. My problem was not being able to understand it clearly which led me to do bad on my quiz, however, with the teacher seeing that I struggled with other people, she managed to go slow and easy which became beneficial for me. I improved on my tests/quizzes from having an F to the range of an A or B.
