Undergraduate / university essay admission: A journey towards what I am made of [4]
Thank you. I have make the necessary changes,please check.
It is through participating MOE teaching internship that I re-affirm the vocation in my life: teaching Economics. I had chosen Economics as my main teaching subject, and was assigned to conduct foundation lessons based on an out-dated textbook. As I was not offered Economics in Secondary School, it was definitely a challenge. However, my determination to succeed outweighs the seemingly daunting task, and I went for consultation to learn how contents are brought across effectively to students. Understanding their needs, I have translated wordy text into more straightforward points. To enhance their understanding of the chapter, I have hand-drawn mind maps to draw the connections. As Economics is an extremely applicable subject, drawing connections to relevant and modern examples improves their understanding. It has been a daunting task, but with my initiatives and the ability to thrive on challenges, I have triumphed. Ironically, during my internship, my students have helped me to discover my purpose in life. I aspire to learn more, to provide them with better response; becoming a better mentor for them. I am confident that my willingness to learn ensures my commitment to Economics studies over the 4 years. Undoubtedly as I search for better answers, my passion for Economics is afresh upon discovering new links between issues, and how intricately economics issues weave between each other. It is definitely a subject which offers endless discovery and revelation. To me, Economics is likened to chocolate, it comforts my nerves yet I can never get enough of the thrill it brings. Economics has integrated into my life, I constantly find myself indulging in the use of economic terms in daily conversations; I even volunteered to attend the Annual JC Economics Seminar to be informed of Singapore's economic outlook. My passion for Economics has ensured that I impart my knowledge as much as possible to the extent that I become an investment for the greater good.

I am confident that my willingness to learn ensures my commitment to Economics studies over the 4 years. On my last day of work, I treated my students to pizzas, I was overwhelmed when I witnessed them hunting for leftover crumbs after their first serving. I felt that I was willing to spare my serving to feed them. From there, I reckoned that I am an individual who is willing to sacrifice for the betterment of others. I am certain that this quality will help to produce a ripple effect to what I gained; to bring the understanding of Economics to deprived parts of the world from the education I received. Getting admitted into NUS would not only fulfil my ambition, but many generations' to come because I will an investment towards solving some of very crucial global issues like ignorance and illiteracy. I hope that this personal statement supports my application and demonstrate that I am a disciplined and hardworking student with a key interest in Economics who enjoy contributing to all aspects of university life.
