Self Introduction


To: Brad Blackstone
From: Jerome Goh
Subject: Self-introductory Email

Dear Professor Brad Blackstone,

I would like to take this opportunity to formally introduce myself. My name is Jerome Goh and currently studying as a telematics undergraduate in Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT). Prior to national service, I completed my diploma in business process & systems engineering in Temasek Polytechnic (TP).

My interest in this course started out as a practical idea: being able to secure a job in the next few years. I decided to take this course even though it was almost completely new to me as most of the modules I have no affiliation to my diploma. Despite this, I am willing to learn and hopefully find myself doing this as a career in the future. However, my love for automobiles, which I picked up from my father, made me really interested in a possible career in this sector.

In terms of my communications strengths, I find myself being able to communicate effectively to strangers or superiors. During my internship in my polytechnic days, I was given the opportunity to present my group’s project proposal to a board of higher management from the company as they were interested to find out more about it. I was presenting my group’s idea to a group of people I had never met before. This experience gave me more confidence in talking to strangers and stringing my thought process quickly and effectively.

The biggest difficulty I find myself facing would be public speaking. I have presented countless times during my polytechnic days, but I find myself unable to present myself confidently with large groups of people. It often causes me to stutter as I awkwardly string my words into coherent sentences.

The goals I have set by the end of this trimester would be to improve on my writing skills and my public speaking. I would like to polish them and turn these into my strengths. I look forward to learning more from you with your guidance over the course of the remaining weeks.

Thank you for taking your time to read this.

Yours sincerely,
Jerome
