I had an ambitious dream...


something bizzare here...maybe you should write just I enrolled instead.


Shove? maybe show? Anyway it should be in past.


Leadership.. 2 times and then again "leadership" try to use different words.


again past tense.. use led instead

You have big problems with grammar.I tried to correct some of them,but there can be mistakes ,which I did not see. Another problem is coherence.Since sentences and paragraphs are not realted with each other it is very hard to read whole essay.

Try to rewrite and repost the essay.
Wish you all the best

Thanks for your advice. I will repost a revised version soon.
Here, with another focus in the essay, I wonder if this is a better one. Please give me some advices, thanks.

It all began when I was selected to do my country National Service. At first, I was not much of a talker as I felt that I would just be an ordinary participant to ease myself. However I was approached by the 'Ketua Jurulatih' and was voted as the 'Ketua Wirawati'. Never would I have thought that I would be the one leading the groups of girls in my age. Surprisingly, I was delighted to be chosen as the leader with full confidence as I was once the contingent leader during my secondary school life in Red Crescent Society.

Of course, there were some obstacles during this task as there were people from different background and I need to remain calm to judge every matter. I emphasized on working together as a team and being a good follower. It was an exciting and amazing humanity experience, where I interacted with people from all walks of life. I was also awarded the best wirawati in the camp.

Furthermore, I realized that challenging myself and taking part in extracurricular activities do wonders for me. I was a 2nd Dan WTF Taekwondo Black Belt Holder and currenly still active in seminar and competition.

The National Service experience had taught me how to work in groups, improved my social skills, and opened my eyes to our nation. Most importantly, it gave me insight on my leadership skills. I learned that I have a passion for leadership. I enjoy meeting and interacting with people in a project, an organization, or an idea, and the opportunity to make them passionate about it, is exciting to me. Moreover at Crescendo College, I successfully lead my group to win first prize in the Young Entrepreneurs Project Challenge and achieved an A grade in my A-Level Business Studies.

In business, teamwork is both challenging and captivating. I wholeheartedly wished to learn how to manage all those people and lead them to succeed collectively.

This is my revised version of the 1st essay that I have posted.
Really need some help and advice on the grammar and the overall message.
Thanks so much.
