To improve
Self confidence
I think that at times when speaking to people I don’t know so well I can be shy and hesitant to express my opinions even if I think that my idea can help to improve the situation. Sometimes I can lack confidence in my own abilities if in an environment where I don’t know the people I am working with.
To be extroverted
I think at times that I am hesitant to talk to people in depth if I don’t feel as if I am good friends with them. I would like to improve my social skills in this aspect in order to make better relationships with more people.
Public speaking
I struggle speaking in public to large groups of people I don’t know well, so being more confident in myself in order to speak to large audiences is a skill I would definitely like to improve.
Diligent
One example of when I have been diligent is in the build up to my GCSE exams which I have just taken. I worked tirelessly in the build up to the exams during study leave and the holidays around study leave as I knew that if I did so I would get the marks I had the potential to achieve. In the end the hours of work paid off, as I received a grade 9 in all 11 of my subjects, a feat achieved by only 188 students across the country who took 11 GCSEs. The hard work and diligence paid off in the end, and I think getting my head down and working hard when I want to achieve one of my goals is a strong skill of mine.
Resilient
I used to find playing the piano difficult when I was younger but I stuck with it and continued practising frequently until I improved, and I now enjoy the piano much more and have completed Grade 8 and have begun working on my piano diploma.
Organised
I think I am quite an organised person as I am rarely rushing to get my things together if I am going somewhere as I normally have packed my bag the night before or earlier in the day before I have to leave. I rarely forget anything too and never leave my homework until the night before it is due, which shows my organisation.
Punctual
I am someone who dislikes being late to events whether that be school or meeting up with people as I think it is rude to do so. For example, in all my years at school, I have only been late to school twice.
Responsible
I believe that I am quite a responsible person as I have been elected the Pupil Voice representative for my class 3 years in a row, showing that my peers believe that I am responsible as they trust me to deliver all of their views, opinions and suggestions to staff and people higher up in the school.
Problem Solving
I think that I am a good problem solver as I am good at thinking laterally and outside of the box, as well as being able to see problems from multiple perspectives. Alongside my creativity, this means I am good at solving a multitude of different problems on the fly.
