"to contribute to such active learner environment" - Singapore and USA [4]
I was once an introvert but my exposure to the outside world led me to break out of my shell. One experience after another helped me improve into being the outgoing student I am today. Growing up in the capital city of Vietnam and attending one of the most diverse schools in Hanoi as well as being national champion in Chinese chess, I think I can
greatly contribute to your community.
Firstly , I think my desire to success academically is always on the top of my priorities list. I attain second place in Math competition at my school so Math will be my first subject to focus on. My eagerness to learn and improve my knowledge will also lead me to achieve good mark in other courses. Self-study and paying full attention during classes also help me to better my result . Thus, with my passion and motivation in pursuing academic excellence I can be a great asset of your active learning community.
Moreover , as national champion in Chinese chess in my country, I believe my experience
may be useful to help students who are interested in that activity. I have participated 7 times in national competition in Chinese chess and attained first place 4 times. With many years experience I figure out that Chinese chess is really helpful for conceptual skills which is highlight recommend for student as one of the activity to develop their mental capacity. It also brings about fun to people who play it for relaxtion after hard time studying. So I think I can contribute my knowledge to develop this non-sporting activity to enrich the high quality of activities at Sji-international school.
My commitment to community and volunteer services is also another thing that I can bring to the community. While working hard at the national Chinese club and excelling in academic achievement, I still find time to volunteer
for numerous organizations. Helping to distribute goods to homeless people in the town near Hanoi along with to package presents to children in SOS village were unforgettable memories for me. My volunteer experiences have positively influenced my life and made me
a well-rounded person (I think this sentence is a bit arrogant @@). I am planning to keep volunteering while attending Sji-school and
it will make my college experience diverse and valuable (Unnecessary).
In conclusion, as
an ambitious girl
who eagerly want to perform academically well as well as having unique skill in chess and having a heart for volunteer activity I believe that I can contribute and enrich the lives of Sji-international school and make the school proud of having me as a student.
I think you you should tell more about yourself and you chess skills in the third paragraph.The three last sentences in that paragraph are just merely some facts that the admission officers can find anywhere on the internet.
