In the course of three months, this module has not only strengthened my belief regarding the importance of effective communication but has also taught me various things. My goals of effective communication for the purposes mentioned in my first blog still stand strong with additional support.
I have been able to acquire many tips on writing and speaking skills. During the job search lessons, I was able to learn to focus on my strengths and “my selling points” while drafting out a resume and a cover letter for a certain job. My writing skills had been rusty at the beginning, taking part in this module has not only helped revive it but has also enriched. Watching our presentation on a video, was more effective in letting me understand the places I needed to improve and I intend to work on these areas.
But in addition to the the technical skills I’ve learned in class, I am more thankful about the new bonds I have fostered within the class. First, I want to thank Ms. Kim, for your patience and for providing us with an interesting learning experience. You have taught me many useful things.
I want to thank the entire class for a great semester, the arguments and the discussions are what made the class interesting and worthwhile. I especially want to thank Pei Pei, for being there through all the troubles we had with our project - Girl, you rock! Kiet, who always knew how to lighten up the atmosphere when we were stressed. Wilson and Wendy, whose support and encouragement throughout the module has always been great. Let’s make sure we still keep in touch. Yihao, thanks not only for taking time to edit and provide feedback for my blog post but also for your encouragements.
Thus, the module finally comes to a close but I believe that my learning of effective communication does not end here.
Good luck for the exams everyone! I hope to see you around campus.
