The modules I am studying within my subject:
Currently, I am studying business and management foundation course at Bellerbys College. This course involves three main modules which are Accounting , Economics and CIT. In addition to studying English skills and IELTS. All these subjects are focusing on providing the basic knowledge that students need in order to start their course in universities. In the next term, I will continue studying Economics 2 and English skills ( FES ) as well as studying Business math and Business studies.
How the different subjects I am studying compare with each other:
Although these entire subjects are related to the business sector, It is clear that each field involves different tasks. For example, Accounting focuses on how the businesses work by organising and keeping the financial accounts. During the account class, we learned how to prepare the financial statement such as income statement and balance sheet. These statements can provide businesses with the important information in order to keep it on the right track. On the other hand, Economic studies are the science of analysing the production of goods and services by understanding causes and effects .Moreover, the CIT module enables us to link our business studies with the technology by using Microsoft programs such as Word and Excel in order to manage figures and information to make the work more convenient. In addition, English skills module is one of the essential subjects which provide us with the required method to improve our English. Learning how to take notes and summaries information can be assisted through our studies in university. During the IELTS class, we learn the required methods in order to obtain a good result in the exam. And focusing on four main skills which are listening , writing , reading and speaking .
There is no doubt that studying abroad in Bullerbys College create a significant impact on my life. Living away from my family makes me become more independent and raise my responsibility. Another positive aspect is making me able to manage my own finance which helps me to increase my awareness of using the money.in addition , I believe that studying here has improved my ability to adapt and deal with unexpected circumstances. All these skills that I gained can assist me with my further studies in the university.
What I have learned about myself during the term so far:
During this term, I have improved many important skills. English skills lessons have developed my language and that makes me become more confident while speaking to others. In addition to learning how to write well following some structures. Managing and organising are essential skills too, therefore, I learned how to plan my time effectively.
Understanding the economics was a real challenge for me since it is the first time that I study this subject. However, I tried hard to overcome any problem I face by reading some economics books and asking my teacher to help me whenever I face difficulties. Another important thing that assists my studying is not being only depended on what the teacher says in class ,but also expand my knowledge by reading more about what I already learnt.
I am very glad to be a student in Bullerbys College. Because I had the opportunity to meet many friends. Being in a class which have varies nationalities has many advantages and the main benefit is making me open to others cultures and ways of life.
