Outside school I play football for my local team and have since I was around the age of 8. I attend two training sessions a week and play a game on a Sunday. I have been very successful in football and have had a few trials and professional Scottish clubs but unfortunately didn't make the grade. I also enjoy a game of golf, I play as much as possible but in Scotland the weather doesn't always permit a game of golf. I also attend after school clubs at school such as badminton. I have a part time job in boots the pharmacy in Buchannan galleries and really enjoy it and have made many friends since I started working there.
I have many key skills and qualities such as
�I am punctual and have a good vocabulary, spelling and grammar.
�I can follow instructions carefully and can use initiative when needed.
�I am confident when working with the public and dealing with customers.
�I get on with others and can work in a team well.
�I am very observant and pay close attention to detail.
I have used all these skills in my previous work experience and my current jobs. I perform them exceptionally well and go out my way to do the best job possible. I have also used some of these qualities during school when I was studying business administration and have learned from mistakes and I also know were my strengths lie. I also take advice on given my seniors and try and do my best to take it on board.

    I have learned from my areas of growth and turned them into strengths.. I try to stay quiet and not talk about dumb things or just keep quiet in general. Also, my impatience has actually helped me learn how to deal with certain people and work certain jobs. Now instead of getting mad and upset from little kids not listening I just learn to take their attention away from whatever they are doing wrong. My strength, of trying to get the job done that is put in front of me, has helped me become better prepared for the real world and what is to come after high school and college. Other strengths which were the inability to say no has helped me do well when working outside of…

    My strengths all tie together well. Speaking on equality, I feel that no one should be left or shut out of the equation. Bringing that to the work place would mean everybody having an equal part in handling a task and not just one person doing it all. When doing a group project at school you do not want just one person doing the whole project. You would want the whole group to have equal work and cooperation with each other in doing this. Having these skills, shows that you can work together and can get along with people. “Protecting individual rights and the well-being of the community work together and check excesses in order to achieve the best outcome.” (Personal…

    There are five specific skills that I am both good at and like which is leadership, motivate, counsel, multitask and deal with feelings. When stating that I am good at leadership is because it’s a great way to show others a positive path to follow. To illustrate, I demonstrated leadership when I was in high school since I was president of the Health Academy. The positive leadership moves persuaded and motivated my classmates and underclassmen to follow my steps. Although being president of the health academy was very time consuming I managed to multi-task. There was a point that being a president of the Health Academy made me feel confused and had to deal with my emotions outside of the Academy. Since I did not want others to feel sorrowful…

    The abilities an individual possesses are an accumulation of their previous life experiences and the various competences which have been practiced for many years. Often times, these skills are overlooked and taken for granted as we never actually think about them in terms of their effect on our potential career choices. After thinking about my personal skills, I compiled a list which included; communication, cooperation, patience, listening, helping others and perseverance; all skills which I have possessed for majority of my lifetime and have used to overcome many challenges. One example in particular which required me to draw on many of these skills, was fairly recently; I am a dance instructor for children ages four to seven and there was a young boy who joined the class later than the rest of the students. I noticed that he was struggling…
