• Don’t get overwhelmed!
• Imagine each steps that you need to take are
small, where you are learning along the way.

15. Resume
• Written English is a very different form of
communication from spoken English, its almost a
different language!
• People understand what we mean, but when we
write, we need to use words that are more
descriptive.
• Before you send it, read it aloud. Or tape it and
listen back.
• Resume gives a snap shot about you. So it’s
important you make a good impression.
