荷蘭帝爾堡大學經(jīng)濟系申請信-Motivation Letter
My name is Y.Jiang and my English name is Kaitlyn. I am from China, actually in the past I was a typical Chinese who is very conservative, shy, modest and restrained,I have been influenced by Chinese culture deeply. At the beginning, I could not get along with my foreign fellows very well, especially my group members. Because I definitely had no idea about how to do the teamwork, I kept silence, wrote down everything during the meeting and finished my part in time. Then my fellows had complains with me, I knew it was the time for me to change my attitude and behaviors. Now I often come up with my own opinions no matter it sounds reasonable or not, because I realize the essential thing for a group is discussion rather than self-denial. I am glad to study with my foreign classmates, communicating with them is a enjoyable and interesting thing. I have studied in Netherlands for half year, which will help me do better and adopted well in Tilburg University that is my biggest advantage compare with others students who stay in China.我的名字是華江和我的英文名字是凱特琳。我來自中國,實際上在過去我是一個典型的中國人是非常保守的,害羞,謙虛和克制,我已深深地受到中國文化的影響。在開始的時候,我能不能與我的外國同事很好,尤其是我的小組成員。因為我不知道如何做的團隊精神,我保持沉默,寫下了會議期間的一切,完成了我的部分時間。然后我們抱怨我,我知道這是我改變我的態(tài)度和行為的時間?,F(xiàn)在我經(jīng)常拿出自己的意見,不管它聽起來合理與否,因為我實現(xiàn)的一組重要的討論而不是自我否定。我很高興與我的外國同學們學習,與他們交流是一個有趣的事情。我曾在荷蘭半年,這將幫助我做的更好,在蒂爾堡大學,是我最大的優(yōu)勢與其他學生在中國比較好用。
I graduated from a key senior high school which located in Nanjing, my major was humanity because I was good at global history, Chinese and global politics, Marxism philosophy, socialistic economics and global geography, all of these I got A grades. Unlike other Arts students, Mathematics and statistics were my strengths as well. I know economics needs students with strong logical thinking analytic skill. The first time I encountered with economics was a politics lesson that involved game theory, which can be applied to complicated game such as checkers and chess, as well as real world problems, property division and politics. The most impressive example set by our lecturer was Greek Debt crisis, which is a dilemma like the famous prisoner’s Dilemma. It seems that the game theory can well explain how the world works. It maybe not easy to find the optimal solution when have multiple players. However game theory at least gives us a sense of logical and sophisticated thinking. As we got on with the class, I found myself keenly interested in economics and I do have ability to study economics well. During high school and secondary school years, I joined summer camps to Canada and Australia, which inspiredthoughts of oversea study life. #p#分頁標題#e#
After graduated from high school I had a long summer holiday. Without university diploma and professional career experience, I could not get any specialized jobs which linked directly to my major, as a high school graduator I just found some simple part-time jobs, restaurant waitress, milk tea shop assistant, SuGuosupermarket saleswoman, andChina Life Insurance Company operator. I learnt the information of most popular wealth management products and insurance items.Depending on my convincing sales pitch and understanding of consumerpsychology,I achieved good sales performance in supermarket and attracted 3 clients for insurance company, which brought a strong sense of achievement. Fortunately, these work experiences let me confirmed that business and economics are the most suitable subjects for me. Business pays attention to practice, however the economics is more theoretical, I consider that the relationship between these two subjects is that economics provides an efficient way and analyzing marketing situation to address the business issues.I prefer to analysis situation and study theoretical knowledge. I chose go abroad to Netherlands to continuous my study and fulfill my dream. This year is my foundation year of Han Hogeschool, I have many compulsory courses,which include Statistics, accounting, logistic, marketing, Business project and the second language. I satisfied with my current study life but the economics course is taught by Dutch that is my biggest regret.
Chinese students in my school tend to learn Dutch as the second language because it is easy to pass the exam and get high score, while I opted for Spanish, which is a big challenge for me. I am the only Chinese student in Spanish class. I learn Spanish not only because it is one of the most popular languages in the world but related my future plan as well. South American has large market, vast numbers of customers and many job opportunities. I am a lucky person who can go abroad and accept the higher education.Now I study and live with a thankful heart. Thus, I have obligation to help others and repay society. After graduate from university I will become a volunteer in Argentina where I can help children who live in poverty to learn English andother subjects. Hope they can change their life by the way of learning knowledge. Meanwhile I could practice my Spanish and enjoy Argentina culture. After one year, I will go back to my mother country and work in a local bank or company, for a businessman in China Spanish is very practical to help me get a well-paid career. Before 40 year-old, I will retire and start my new life, open a café shop or a restaurant.
To be honest, I admit that I am not clever but very hard-working. After starting high school life, I spent most of time on studying and reviewing in the library. Although heavy academic pressure and long time study forced me to give up my hobbies, I still kept habitat to playing volleyball. At high school I joinedschool team and got the second place. Different with other sports just rely on individual’s ability, volleyball cultivates my capability of collaboration that is why I like it.#p#分頁標題#e#
The primarily reason why I prefer to Tilburg University is that I am crazy about long history and rich culture of Tilburg.Since a very early age I enjoy reading books during spare time. For example, Pride and Prejudice that depicts vivid and distinct characterswritten by Jane Austen. I am fascinated with meticulous depiction of the European countryside and beautiful scenery. Furthermore, Tilburg is one of the best universities in Netherlands, especially economical college. Lastly, in order to avoid wasting time,Tilburg University makes study schedule tight and length of schooling (3 years) is shorter than Canada and USA, but the diploma value is higher than other countries. From the aspect of economy, I will gain higher rate of return on investment, at the same time it can largely reduce the cost and alleviate my parents’ financial pressure
老實說,我承認我不聰明,但很勤奮。從高中畢業(yè)后,我把大部分時間花在研究和在圖書館復習。雖然繁重的學業(yè)壓力和長時間的學習,我不得不放棄我的愛好,我還是棲息地打排球。在高中時我加入了學校的隊得了第二名。與其他運動項目不同僅僅依靠個人的能力,培養(yǎng)了我的合作,排球是我為什么喜歡它的能力。
主要的原因是我喜歡,我對蒂爾堡大學的悠久歷史和豐富文化蒂爾堡瘋狂。從很早的時候我喜歡在業(yè)余時間讀書的書。例如,傲慢與偏見,描繪生動和鮮明的characterswritten簡奧斯丁。我著迷于描寫歐洲鄉(xiāng)村的美麗的風景。此外,在荷蘭蒂爾堡是最好的大學,尤其是經(jīng)濟學院。最后,為了避免浪費時間,使學校教育的蒂爾堡大學學習進度緊和長度(3年)比加拿大和美國,但是文憑的價值高于其他國家。從經(jīng)濟角度考慮,我將獲得較高的投資收益率,同時可以大大降低成本,減輕父母的經(jīng)濟壓力
