Subject: Self-Introduction and Communication Development Goals Dear Professor Blackstone, I hope this email finds you well. My name is Ethan, a student in your critical thinking and communication module. I am writing to share my goals for enhancing my critical thinking and communication skills through this course. My engineering journey began in secondary school with the Youth Flying Club, where I built hand-launched gliders and remote-control planes. This experience steered my interest toward manufacturing rather than aviation. I pursued this passion further at Singapore Polytechnic, engaging in the WorldSkills Singapore Competition in CNC Turning. This hands-on experience deepened my understanding of manufacturing intricacies. One of my key communication strengths is directness. This trait has proven useful in various situations, from group projects where clarity in roles and objectives is crucial, to my time in the army, where I efficiently condensed meeting agendas into key points....
