Reflection

It is a pleasure to be taught by Mr. Falizah and having such interactive lessons with all you fellow classmates through this semester. Many things have been taught, and I have been better equipped with skills on interpersonal communications; whether is it written, verbal and non-verbal. What I have learnt have really propelled me further into my preparation for the workforce in the near future. Now, I know how to write a proper application letter, and an impressive resume that would attract the attention of my prospective employer. I've also learnt how to perform during an interview, and all these are exceptionally essential for soon-to-be graduates like me. Working on a project with a team also allowed me to practice team work. I’ve also learnt how to organise our proposal neatly for ease of reference (wiki and minutes writing).

This module offered many take-away as I've recognised the many mistakes I committed in communicating with others. Clarity is one major aspect I've learnt to improve on, as many miscommunications happen due to the lack of information communicated. Through this course, I also understood more about other cultures, how they behave and how they express themselves which allowed me to be more understanding of their differing behaviours.

All in all, every lesson was very insightful and I managed to learn something new and useful each time. The biggest take-away in my opinion, is therefore the many great relationships fostered throughout every activity we have, from blogging, to peer-teaching, to presentations. This module, more than just teaching communications, allowed us to communicate with each other more than any other module, giving us many opportunities for us to practice what we’ve learnt. A big 'Thank You!' to everyone for making ES2007S such an enjoyable module! I believe we have all completed this course being better communicators!

  2. Hey teammate, it had been such a pleasure to have known the entire class and have worked with you, Tingting and Renny. Very proud of what we did too! I agree with you that the module is so relevant and useful, so many things we have learnt can apply to our lives. The way the module is taught is unique and inspiring, as you mentioned, the blogging, peer teaching and so on are such creative ways in making the module so fun and easy to learn. You did an awesome job with the module and group works, thanks for that. Take care! (btw, sweetie, change the Mr to Ms, the first line of the article)
