A Review of and Goals for My School Days
During my freshman and sophomore years at JWU, I focused on gaining many practical experiences in addition to my academic work. The two most memorable of these experiences were my participation in an internship with a ward assemblyman and a month-long language program in New York City.
During the summer vacation of my freshman year, I interned for a ward assembly member. This experience provided me with a valuable opportunity to learn about the policy-making process in the local community. Specifically, I accompanied the council member in his activities, listening to the council meetings and preparing documents, and was able to experience firsthand the actual policy-making process and the issues behind it. In addition, through the public relations activities of legislators, I realized the importance of communication in politics. Through this internship, I was able to deepen my understanding of local community issues.
In the spring of my sophomore year, I participated in a one-month language study program in New York. At school, I took classes in daily conversation and cross-cultural communication. Outside of class, I actively interacted with local people, such as my host family and their friends, and was able to dramatically improve my English communication skills. In addition, living in the multicultural city of New York provided an excellent opportunity to understand different cultures and values and to develop a flexible way of thinking. This experience not only broadened my international perspective, but also increased my awareness of my future career because I realized that English is important if I want to work for a company that has international reach.
Now, in my third year, I would like to focus on seminar activities and job hunting. I am particularly interested in the cultural backgrounds and social influences in American works of literature. In the seminar class, I would like to make use of the skills I have cultivated through the aforementioned internship and language training program, and I would like to speak up actively in seminar activities and do my best in researching for my graduation thesis. And in my job hunting activities, I would like to make use of the experience I gained from my internship to improve my hireability. In addition, I would like to improve my English language skills that I have acquired through language training and seminars, and I would like to continue learning English with the goal of achieving a high TOEIC score. I will do my best to balance my studies and job-hunting activities so that both receive the attention they require.
Based on the experience and skills I have gained in the first half of my university life; I would like to devote myself to further growth this year.
学生生活における振り返りと目標
大学一年生と二年生の期間、私は学業だけでなく、多くの実践的な経験を積むことに力を注いだ。その中で特に印象深かったのは、区議会議員インターンシップへの参加と二年生の春に行ったニューヨークでの一ヶ月間の語学研修だ。
一年生の夏休みには、区議会議員のインターンシップに参加した。この経験は、地域社会における政策決定の過程を学ぶ貴重な機会となった。具体的には、議員の活動に同行し、議会の傍聴や資料作成にも携わり、実際の政策立案やその裏にある課題を肌で感じることができた。また、議員の広報活動を通じて、政治におけるコミュニケーションの重要性を実感した。このインターンシップを通じて、地域社会の課題に対する理解が深まり、自分の意見を的確に伝える力も養うことができた。
二年生の春には、一ヶ月間のニューヨーク語学研修に参加した。学校では、日常会話や異文化コミュニケーションの授業を受けた。授業外でも現地の人々と積極的に交流し、英語でのコミュニケーション能力を飛躍的に向上させることができた。また、ニューヨークという多文化都市での生活は、異なる文化や価値観を理解し、柔軟な思考を身につける絶好の機会となった。この経験は、国際的な視野を広げるとともに、自分の将来のキャリアに対する意識を高めることにも繋がった。
三年生では、ゼミ活動と就職活動に重点を置きたい。私は特に、英米の文学作品における文化的背景や社会的影響に関心がある。ゼミでは、これらのこれまでのインターンシップや語学研修で培ったスキルを活かし、ゼミ活動でも積極的な発言や卒業論文に向けた365体育直播_欧洲杯投注网#を頑張りたい。そして、就職活動ではインターンシップで得た経験を活かして企業にアピールしていきたい。また、語学研修やゼミで取り組んだ英語力をより上げていきたく、TOEIC高得点目標に、の英語学習も継続していきたい。以上の学業と就職活動とをどちらか疎かにならないように、頑張って両立させていきたい。
大学生活の前半で得た経験とスキルを基に、三年生ではさらに成長することを目標に精進したい。
