I am looking forward to learning the use of information systems in a business context such as project management and strategic information systems. I would like to take the opportunity to undertake a placement year because this will allow me to develop my skills further in the workplace.
Whilst studying my A-Levels, I have enjoyed studying a number of units including the Introduction to Software Development which was based on Visual Basic programming language. The unit consisted of programming a Visual Basic interface in which I achieved a Distinction. I am also very interested in Communications Technology; I found learning about Computer Networks, Data Communications and the Internet very interesting. I have gained a wider knowledge of computing and believe I can achieve high grades throughout my education. I am currently on a course to achieve grade DDM which is equal to 320 points.
In my spare time, I carry out work on Art as I have previously studied AS Level Art & Design; I gained grade B. I am studying AS Photography at college; the course is creative in exploring the still-life.
Whilst studying full-time at college, I have carried out extra curriculaR activities. This included being a teacher assistant at the Hartwell Day Centre where I taught elderly people how to use computer software such as Microsoft Word; they designed cards and letters.
I am hard-working, enthusiastic and always keen to meet deadlines. I am an open person, can easily interact with colleagues and share constructive views and opinions.
