Self Introduction
Dear
Brad,
I
hope that this email finds you well. I would like to take this opportunity
to introduce myself. My name is Ng Sze Min, a year two hospitality business student
from your Career Professional Development II Seminar Group 3. Prior to entering
Singapore Institute of Technology, I graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a
diploma in business studies specializing in pure marketing.
Unlike
my peers who come from hospitality backgrounds, I do not have much experience
working in the hotel and tourism industry. However, I have a passion for planning
events. Therefore, I am currently pursuing a specialization in the MICE track. During my
industry attachment last year, I interned under People’s Association where I
was attached to the programs department in Woodgrove Constituency Office. Throughout the four months internship, I gained valuable experiences in planning events for the community and met people from all walks of life. I was also
given the opportunity to spearhead my own event and was involved in planning and
execution of National Day Dinner Celebrations.
Communication
style wise, I feel that I am more of an active listener than a speaker. I am more comfortable in writing to express my thoughts, which explains my creating a personal blog to jot my experiences as a memory book to look back in the future. However, I
am still lacking in terms of oral presentation skills. When it comes to presenting in
front of a large crowd, I still feel nervous and tend to tense up which leads me to forgetting my content at times. However, I felt that this
weakness of mine could be overcome with practice coupled with self-confidence.
Understanding my style of communication allows me to work on my weaknesses and focus on my
strengths. Therefore, I would continue to work on honing my oral communication
skills so as to make effective presentations in future.
Yours Sincerely,
Sze Min Ng
Yours Sincerely,
