this is a small section out of a logbook i have to keep while on work placement from college. i need to keep a log of the tasks i carried out and the skills i got from it. i dont think the quality of my writing is good so far and was wondering if anyone could help me with it. i also need to more thoroughly address the skills i have developed. if anyone can help me i would so greatly appreciate it! thanks very muuch in advance

Within the task of contacting businesses to take out an advert in the program for the upcoming event i had to keep to a deadline which developed my time management skills. I was also tasked with creating passes for all members of staff for the upcoming feile an earraigh event. I had to firstly design the passes which i found quite challenging as graphic design was always an area i was weak at and instead of employing the use of a professional graphic designer which i would usually do in previous events i was involved with through college, i made a go of it and created a number of different designs (see appendix) i feel i have truely developed a new skill and Something i actually enjoy. Completing this task has given me the confidence to attempt the basics of graphic design in the future for events for things like tickets and leaflets and i would like to enroll in a photoshop course to develop this new skill furthur so i can produce higher quality work in the future

I edited your essay below. I like it a lot, except for the grammar. You should read over it yourself and edit it. Please like my post!!! But you really have to capitalize your letters. It is a basic grammar concept

can someone help me write these sentences more fluently

When I first started placement last month, I feel I was just getting to grips with what was expected of me, I believe I have progressed this month into being comfortable working within my role as Events Assistant.

My communication skills have improved greatly as I am now speaking confidently on the phone and in person and am able to handle enquiries from the public and organisations with ease.

Within this task I also had to email the different businesses so I feel I developed my written communication skills as I had to email in a professional manner also and ensure that I wrote in a way that was negotiable and articulately.

I learnt that the a job in the events industry truly isn't just in the workplace, as I was often receiving replies from businesses at different times of the day (sometimes at nightime) and was accessing my emails in the house and replying to my work peers through email after hours. i feel this task gave me confidence in my own ability as I was being depended apon for an important task and I carried it out efficiently and effectively.

I was given the task of researching some arts type companies/businesses/organisations to contact about becoming involved with the August FĂ©ile. This task improved apon my research and written communication skills and also on how to take initiative.

thanks!
