1. Personal Statement
My Strengths
I am confident to speak to adults, when they approach me, I have learnt to be so confident and
approachable because of my job as a waiter. Furthermore I am not hesitant to ask questions if I am
unsure of a task I have been set. I am a friendly, polite boy with lots of energy. I am quite a calm
person as well and work well in groups of people contributing with good and useful ideas.
My Weaknesses
I do not have many weaknesses but the ones I do are only minor. For example my eye sight isn’t the
best, so I wear glasses or contact lenses. I am not the best of spellers either but I try my best and any
word I do not how to spell I can either ask someone or look it up on Google. Furthermore, I do not
like public speaking and presenting to a group of people. I would obviously do it if asked by my
employer but I am not confident enough to speak really clearly and I normally stumble on my words.
Uni Options
When I go to university I would like to either do: Photography,Film and Television or Television
production. My first option is to do photography. I would like to do photography because I would hopefully get a
job at a magazine company and then I would go to the x-games or other smaller snowboarding events to start of
and take pictures of the competition. As I am also a snowboarder on my free time I could go snowboarding
across the mountain.
Skills and Achievements
I have had a job at Puccinis Restaurant in Swinton since the age of 15, I got the job by doing work experience in
year ten at the restaurant and because I worked hard and impressed the boss I was offered a job to work there.
But because of my age I could only do restricted hours, but it was good experience.
