Ways to develop skills.
Do you want to develop your skills? Exactly what skills do you want to? After giving answers to these questions you need to find the ways to develop your particular skill. Tips you are given below help you to find your way. You could also use these as evidence in an application for a job to show you had these skills. For example, if you want to improve your writing skills, try to write essays, dissertations, and project reports, articles for the student newspaper or a report for a course placement. However, for speaking skills you can join a college drama group, take part in public speaking or debating or in seminars. Working as a receptionist in a vacation job or being student radio presenter also help for developing your speaking skills. But if you are shy and don’t like new environment, you must try to work part-time while studying or changing courses quickly, because you need adaptability skill. Changing people around helps you to gain this skill. Now you’re saying that you are not shy but always passive. Don’t worry, in this case you don’t have leadership skills. You can improve this skill by leading a group project, captaining a sports team or being a group representative in any events. It is not easy to be a leader or to be a good speaker, but if you try hard you can gain any skill you want to have.
