Dear Professor Brad,
My name is Ng Chin Wai, a student from CVE 1281 Trimester 2 2021-2022 T5. I'm hereby to introduce myself to you.
I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic, with the diploma in engineering with business in 2019. I decided to switch from engineering with business to civil engineering as I want to be more specialized for my future career, I went through an internship when I was in polytechnic, and I realized that I showed passion in the building industry. Coincidentally, my father works in this industry. Hence, I am able to seek him for advice in the future as I enter to the work force.
One of my communication strengths is that I show empathy to the people. I consider my social circle is big, I have been seeing many different people in my life, there are people who don't live in well to do family background, hence from there I always show my empathy by putting myself into their shoes, from there I will do my best to help them out if they were to ask. I'm the person that always look up to the people around me, as I know that one can never be perfect, I have different friends that have different skillsets and different views in lives that makes me look up to them sometimes.
One of my communication weakness would be indecisive, as an easy going person can be a negative impact to others. Especially when it comes to decision making, I understand that when I enter the work force I have to lead the people to complete the task, if I were to be indecisive, this would lead me to being irresponsible to my work, hence from this module I hope to be more decisive at my work in the future.
I hope that by the end of this trimester, I am able to speak confidently and well presented to others, as I have been conversing Singlish with friends, which resulted me being lost when it comes to formal presentation. I also hope that by the end of this trimester, I can takeaway critical thinking skill, I am sure that with good critical thinking skill, I am able to survive in the working society.
What makes me special from others is that I am the person whom willing to take up all sorts of challenges. People have been telling me that its impossible to complete, but I always like to prove them wrong, and eventually it can be done sometimes. This always makes me have great sense of achievement.
Warm Regards,
