Guys please help me review this part of my Chevening Essay.
Chevening is looking for individuals who will be future leaders or influencers in their home countries. Explain how you meet this requirement, using clear examples of your own leadership and influencing skills to support your answer.
I am not afraid to acknowledge and be honest with myself that there are more major failures compared to the successes in my life. For me failure is an accomplishment for its invaluable learning process. I have been influenced by many excellent academicians, and will strive to influence more people myself. In doing so, there are three substantial values to be nurtured: Adaptability, Creativity, and Authenticity.
In the past, my stages of education have been very nomadic. Moving schools from Jambi, Melbourne, and Banten became an opportunity to consistently adapt and adjust to my surrounding environment. I observed how my peers studied, and it raised my awareness in different learning styles. After receiving a Bachelor degree, I became an English teacher at IONs International Education and had the opportunity to engage with students from elementary up to postgraduate level coming from different parts of Indonesia. I always positioned myself as a friend to them who also wishes to improve my English. At every last 10 minutes, I invited them to dream big. Encouraging to preserve our English abilities and how it is imperative to reaching our dreams. This would be impossible if I had not gone through my early adapting stages.
During college I was involved in the faculty's moot-court team. After the first two years, I realized that the regeneration of seniors did not inherit an efficient training scheme. Acknowledging this, I teamed up with two of my best friends and implemented a new creative method. We mind-mapped the recruitment, pleadings writings, and oral training processes. We started the recruitment process earlier and made a syllabus to be taught to the Moot Court Team. We held intensive yet flexible study groups outside of class to teach and learn together, closing the gap between different graduate of students. This small success is appreciated by the lecturers and the next generations, becoming a trademark training scheme for the moot-court team.
There are four essences to authenticity: Realistic, Empathy, openness, and trustworthiness. Realistically, not many students at my campus had interest in international law. Due to the lack of experts and an absence of academic platform. Understanding this situation, I empathized with one of my best friend and opened up our ideas to establish a study center focusing on International Law and shared it with the faculty. With a team of three including our lecturer, we trusted each other to establish; Base for International Law and ASEAN Legal Studies (BILALS). This is a major milestone for the campus, being the first study center to focus on International Law and ASEAN studies to accommodate future international law legal scholars.
Conclusively, my root of leadership is routed on an influential academic path, drawn on a blueprint of adaptability, creativity, and authenticity. By becoming a part of Chevening, I am convinced that it will open up the meadow of endless leadership and influential values to be harvested from academics, professionals, and practitioners. Altogether will be an investment for myself, my University, and my Country.
