Yes yours is a reflector but its performance would be very similar to a 60mm refractor, the type of scope many of us started off with (and some still use). As jjjnettie and ving implied even thru your scope you should be able to se a fair bit particually when you train your eyes. Learn all you can about astronomy, observe planets, deep sky objects and double stars and when you move to a bigger 'scope you will be a seasoned observer.
