I found the Communication Skills Workshops to be extremely beneficial, helpful and useful. I have become more confident and aware of how to communicate effectively with others. Additionally, I have learned how to leverage my knowledge, skills, and experience to adapt to a new community.

I enjoyed all the sessions, but the most beneficial one was Small Talk. It was particularly helpful because I had difficulty initiating conversations with people here in the UK.

The most important realisation I had was that I had mental barriers. Once I overcame them, I became more confident and recognised the benefits of this change, particularly in handling critical situations. I found it much easier to adapt and engage with the community in the UK.

The workshop 5 helped me focus on the specific language I used during my interview, which strengthened my performance and made it more impactful. How I can benefit them, and I have learned to apply my knowledge and skills while adapting to their needs.

In a recent interview, I utilised the skills and strategies I had learned. I spoke confidently, and even when I occasionally forgot a word in English, I did not let it stop or panic me; I continued speaking smoothly and maintained my flow. I focused on demonstrating my value and how I could benefit the school. I effectively showcased my knowledge and skills, adapting them to meet the school's needs. As a result, I was accepted. Overall, the interview was a very positive experience.

To be honest, I am proud of myself, and I would like to thank you, Melanie, for your work, help, and efforts. I have had the opportunity to develop my communication skills.
