Formal letter of introduction
Subject: Formal Introduction
Dear Ms Lim,
My name is Samuel Cheong and I am writing this letter to
introduce myself to you. I graduated from Temasek Polytechnic with a diploma in
Clean Energy. Having a burning passion in environmental engineering, I’ve made
the decision to pursue my studies in Sustainable Infrastructure Engineering
(Building Services). Upon embarking my journey in SIT, I look forward to learn
new skills and to create a wonderful experience here.
Apart from my academics side, appreciating the aesthetics of
landscapes and architectures in Singapore helps me to declutter from my hectic
everyday life. Also, I do have an interest in photography that allows me to
enjoy both exploring different places in Singapore and taking wonderful
pictures.
Back then when I was still serving the nation in the Navy, as
a base security personnel, I had the opportunity to meet different military
personnel from different countries. I faced difficulties when it comes to the
conversations that I had with these military personnel. This have lead me to
realize the importance of communication skills.
I feel uncomfortable when it comes to speaking to a large
crowd causing me to stammer quite a lot. In communicating wise, I tend to speak
too fast that the listener won’t be able to catch what I’m saying. This
weakness have affected the way I converse with other people.
Being a good listener is one of the strengths I have towards
my communicating skills. When I’m listening to the other party that’s speaking,
not only just understanding the information being communicated, I am able to
understand the speaker’s emotions and feelings that he or she is trying to
communicate. This has provided me to understand the person more and also helps
to forge good relations with one another.
In conclusion, I look forward to improve my skills in
communicating and further develop myself to serve the community and inspire
others.
Thank you.
Yours Sincerely,
Hi Samuel,
ReplyDeleteAmazing write up for an introductory letter, introduction and the body was clear and concise.
Interesting to know that you are into photography because it is very rare to know someone that has a strong interest in photography.
For weakness, i agree that speaking too fast will eventually pose a problem especially when you are out there working in the industry.
Let's work hard and hope that you will be able to improve on your weakness through this module! Good luck!
Hey Samuel,
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that you appreciate the landscape of Singapore and is into photography. Maybe someday you can share your amazing pictures with the class? I believe there are many places in Singapore are yet to be explore. I can totally relate to the stammering a lot in front of a large crowd because I personally do too. Everyone can be a good listener but not anyone can feel for others. I am sure this module will definitely help us grow individually! Have fun learning!
Signing off, Ashley
Hello Samuel,
ReplyDeleteThat was a great introduction which made me think back and reflect on why I choose SIE. I guess speaking to a group of people is the same weakness that most people share. It's a great skill to be able to understand people's emotions. I am sure that through this module, we will all be able to improve our communication skills. Lets work towards the 87.5%!
Cheers,
Wenwei.
Hi Samuel,
ReplyDeleteFrom interacting with you so far, I agree that you are a good listener! Being a good listener not only helps us to empathise with the other person more, it also helps us understand our strength and weaknesses. Thanks for the sharing on your hobby, hope to learn some photography skills from you soon!
Hi Samuel,
ReplyDeleteInteresting write up! It's nice to know someone who is into photography as well, though of different genre .
I feel that every group needs a member who is a good listener to balance out the ones who are more vocal. This is so that the ideas being discussed can be fully processed and understood.
All in all, I hope you achieve your goals for this module and gain useful knowledge which would be of use in the future!
