I am a great problem solver as I research the problem at hand and try various things until I figure out the problem
and fix it. I am extremely tenacious as once I have a task in my mind I fully commit to it and work until the task is
done. My ICT skills are very good in the line of work I am doing, i.e. Photoshop and Illustrator, LightWave
Modeler and Layout and Reaper, as well as any other basic IT skills that you would expect from any IT savvy
person. I feel that I am very efficient in my work, if given a deadline; my work is always completed on time. I can
work well in a team when it is necessary and I am able to convey my ideas well, whist taking on board other ideas.
I reckon I am quite creative with the ideas I produce and the work I create. I have really taken well to the college
course that I am doing and because of the great interest I have in it, I feel that my confidence in tackling each
particular part of the course has soared, the more I actually complete work. This I thought was apparent in a recent
presentation I gave to the rest of the class, showing off my art work. I have never spoken publicly like this before
yet I settled into it quite quickly. I pride myself in all and any literacy work that I have to do as it has always been a
strong suit of mine, as well as a passion. I enjoy writing and have even had three pieces of literary work published.
Maths and numeracy, however, have never been one of my strongest, or to be honest, my favourite subjects, yet I
feel I have more than adequate skills to get on in life. I can quite honestly say that I am a very honest, reliable and
trustworthy person who values his morals and treats others as he would expect to be treated by others. I have a
great sense of humour and try to have a laugh where possible and at most things.
