Looking back at my first blog post for ES2007, I came into the class hoping to be able to communicate effectively. Specifically it was presentation skills that I wanted to improve on. After going through 2 presentations and countless dry runs, I can confidently say I improved in my presentation skills and have become more aware of both my strengths and weaknesses in this area. Should future opportunities require myself to present, I will remember to internalise what has been taught in class and continue to improve on my own.
Other skills such as writing cover letters have been really useful to prepare myself for the working society once I graduate in less than a month. The guidelines for professional writing (such as the 7 Cs) will definitely be applicable even after completing the proposal and the module.
In general I really learnt many things in the module, and even if the workload was really heavy, the group projects gave us an opportunity to make friends! This is one big reason that makes attending class more enjoyable and tolerable as compared to other NUS classes. Friends, its been a pleasure knowing you guys and with the exams coming, All the BEST to everyone!! :D
Of course the module will not be made possible without its slave driver Brad! Thank you for all the encouragements you gave us throughout the course! You really made my last semester in NUS very different and special :D
