Formal Introductory Letter

Subject: Self introduction  Dear Professor Brad Blackstone, I am Weili, a student in your “critical thinking and communicating” module, and I am in year 1 of mechanical engineering at Singapore Institute of Technology. In 2021, I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic with a Diploma in marine engineering. I interned at Wilsafe Private Limited as a cadet engineer, and this expanded my viewpoint of the experiences and challenges faced by individuals in the workforce. I learned valuable skills in time management, organization, and the importance of precise and accurate measurements. When I was young, I always wondered how cars move, how airplanes fly, and how ships sail. I began to have an interest in engineering when I started with fixing, repairing, or installing furniture. Throughout the years from secondary school until the present, I have helped my parents repair furniture, dismantle electronic products to better understand how they work, and install curtains with precise measureme...

Throughout the 13 weeks, I learned new things like how to apply "PEEL" and how to cite my research which I have never learned in Polytechnic. I managed to gain the knowledge of how to do a thorough research to aid us with my report. This would be a big help in the future years for my IWSP report. I had gained confidence. In general, I realized that my report writing, and English was not good. Attending this enriching module, I am glad that my peers and professor guided me patiently through all the questions and struggles that I had faced.  In my critical thinking, it allows me to question every decision I had in mind by asking...
