Letter Introduction

Dear Professor Brad,

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and hope it allows you to know me better at the end of it. My name is Wong Wai Kit and I’m 24 this year. I’m currently studying mechanical engineering at the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT). I graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic in 2019 with a diploma in Automation Mechatronic System (Aerospace System). My interest in engineering heightened during my internship in polytechnic with a company that specialises in an autonomous vehicles. I was amazed by the effort put into the vehicle to let it self-drive and be safe for the passenger.

Starting a conversation with individuals is one strength I believe I have. During my time in national service, I was a transport operator (TO) in the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF). During my time in the RSAF, I had to converse with a lot of different vehicle commanders during my details. Starting a conversation will help us to get to the place faster as times will pass by faster and also helps the driver to stay awake throughout the entire journey.  

One communication weakness I have is my public speaking skills. I tend to feel not confident speaking in front of a group of audience. Perhaps this weakness might come from the lack of confidence in my English language. My primary communication language at home is Chinese due to my parents only knowing how to speak in that.

The two goals that I hope to achieve from this module are to improve my public speaking skills and the ability to use critical thinking during my communication.

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I hope that through this letter, you get to know and understand me better. I am looking forward to learning from you in the coming weeks.

Yours sincerely,

Wong Wai Kit

    Hi Wai Kit! I really relate to your engineering journey as my interest increased when I was in my intern. I wish you the best in your engineering journey. We have the same goals for these communication module and I hope that we are able to achieve those by the end of of this module.

    There is a mistake that I noticed, the lack of "confidence" instead of confident.

    Structure wise, very well written and flow is good. Able to follow the letter well and understand most of the content. It is simple and not over complicated.

    Hi Wai Kit,

    After looking at your email I know how you felt coming from a chinese family background and cause the lack of confident on talking in english because I came from Malaysia and my primary speaking is also chinese. I beleved that after this course we can both speaks and write more confidently.

    your letter have some grammar mistake and typo "Stating conversation will help us to get to the place more quickly, also helps the driver to stay awake throughout the entire journey. " instead of stating it should be starting and "more quickly" is use wrongly can change to faster. second sentence is "the lack of confident in my English language." confident should change to lack of confidence this mistake is under word form.

    Hope you have a nice weekend.

    Best regards
