The Things that I am Good at

Many jobs such as lawyers and interpreter, which many people wish to be, require many abilities. This include the ability to present one’s idea clearly and confidently, pronouncing it with perfect intonation. Because of this, what I learned since I was a little girl are the ability to express my opinion clearly and making a good eye contact.
Firstly, I learned how to express my opinion and thoughts clearly. This would be very beneficial for my career because all the works today are related to pursuading others. Then, the ability to express one’s opinion and idea clearly and confidently is one of the most important virtues. I learned how to speak confidently and clearly from many teachers. I informed of the skills of doing this, which includes clear prononciation, intonation and enough gestures with confidence. I practiced to deliver my discourse with adequate speed and gesture. Mant people who listened to my saying told me that it was great because they catched my main idea easily and they thought my speech was good enough to focus withought being irritated.
In addition, I also trained how to contact my eyes well when I give a speech to others and I believe this also would be a great merit for my future career. Many people would acknowledge that one of the most important things when giving a speech is to make a good enough eye contact. Audiances feel that it is boring when the speakers make no eye contact because they feel that they and speakers have to intraction and connection. This also lead to a lack of concentration to the speech. However, whenever I have a speech, I try to contact my eyes with all the people who listen to my discourse equally. This would make my audience focus on my speech well when I have a speech because of my work.
Actually, I put a tremendous amount of time and effort to get these abilities. Whenever I studied with my teachers in the past, all the teachers asked me to say clearly and confidently when I say in front of many people. Not only that, they also made me give confident and good enough eye contact. However, I had a difficulty with this because I am such a shy person. Many teachers scolded me for not being able to contact my eyes directly with others and I struggled to overcome this challenge. In the end, I became a little bit more comfortable to make direct eye contact. After all, I am very grateful for achieving these abilities but at that time, it was even painful.
In conclusion, I think my merits and strong points are the abilties to make a good eye contact and presenting my ideas clearly. Today, almost all the jobs, so-called professions, desired by many people ask their workers to have the ability of these two things. The reason is that the purpose for these jobs is to pursuade others and make them listen to my perspective. Therefore, these, my abilties to say confidently what I want to say and contact my eyes with audiences, I may be easier to pursuade the listeners and finally, the employers of mine who I will face in the future may feel this is great.
I read your essay and I have some questions and suggestions to improve your essay.
ReplyDelete(1) Many jobs such as lawyers and interpreter, which many people wish to be, require many abilities.
-> So you are aiming to be a lawyer and interpreter both? I think it is not clear what kind of job or career that you are focusing on.
(2) This would be very beneficial for my career
-> how about, This 'can' be...? instead of would? I think in that way, it will be more strong sentence.
(3) Mant people who listened to my saying told me that it was great because they catched my main idea easily
-> Type-o Many! ^^ Small thing~ I know!
(4) Audiances feel that it is boring when the speakers make no eye contact because they feel that they and speakers have to intraction and connection.
-> This sentence is not really clear, can you change it in a more clear way? ^^
Good job!

Many people would acknowledge that one of the most important things when giving a speech is to make enough eye contact. Audiences feel that it is boring when the speakers make no eye contact, just reading their scenario because they feel that they and speakers have no interaction and connection with them. This also leads to a lack of concentration to the speech. In my case, whenever I have a speech, I try to contact my eyes with all the people who listen to my discourse equally. This would make my audience focus on my speech well when I have a speech because of my work.
