Subject: Self-Introduction
Dear Professor Blackstone,
My name is Gheslane Cheok, a first-year student at the Singapore Institute of Technology, majoring in civil engineering. I am writing to introduce myself and provide you with a brief overview of my background and aspirations as your student.
Having completed my diploma in civil engineering at Singapore Polytechnic, I have become more confident in my passion for the discipline and my desire to continue my studies. One of the aspects of civil engineering that attracts me most is the wide range of sectors available, offering a wealth of opportunities for exploration. As someone who dislikes repetitive tasks, I am particularly drawn to the variety of work within the field. The dynamic nature of civil engineering enables me to engage in diverse projects that evolve based on community needs, environmental considerations, and other factors, ensuring that no day feels monotonous or restricted.
One of my strengths in communication is open-mindedness. In group settings, I make a conscious effort to listen to diverse perspectives and carefully consider the ideas shared by others. This approach has enriched discussions and fostered mutual respect among my peers. However, I had situation where I hesitate to speak up during disagreements due to my introverted nature and fear of judgment. This self-doubt occasionally hinders me from expressing my thoughts openly. Additionally, I face challenges with proper articulation and tone modulation during presentations, which can affect the clarity and impact of my message.
A key goal for me in this module is to develop the confidence to speak up more and clearly express my ideas, while improving my articulation and tone control. Ultimately, I aim to become a more confident and effective speaker.
What distinguishes me is my patience, which allows me to listen thoughtfully and respond with care. This quality helps me remain composed, especially in high-pressure situations, and ensures productive conversations.
Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction. I appreciate your attention and look forward to learning more from this course.
Best Regards,
Gheslane Cheok
