申请建议

无论是个人陈述技巧还是在申请或求职信中，UCAS官网明确指出提及一下几点会更好。

英语课程非常受欢迎，因此大学正在寻找证据，证明您对该学科有充分的了解和热情，能通过写的博客、一本书或读过的内容来表明对语言的着迷吗？能批评他们或进一步阐述您学到了什么吗？English courses are hugely popular, so universities are looking for evidence that you’re well informed and passionate about the subject. Can you show you’re fascinated by language through a blog you’ve written, or a book or content you’ve read? Can you critique them or further elaborate on what you’ve learned?

您参与过哪些学校或大学俱乐部，比如为校报或杂志撰稿，为电台写剧本，或研究所在地区的语言，进一步表明兴趣？What school or college clubs have you done, like writing for a school newspaper or magazine, writing scripts for radio, or researching language in your area, that further demonstrate your interest?

能获得一些在学校或社区教学或志愿服务的工作经验，或在当地报纸或网站工作，以显示现有的良好沟通能力和有效使用语言的能力吗？如果您在学习后热衷于从事某个行业，您也可以申请暑期实习。Can you get some work experience teaching or volunteering in a school or in the community, or working at a local newspaper or website, that show your existing ability to communicate well, and use language effectively? You could also apply for a summer internship if there’s a sector you’re keen to work in after studying.

通过提及您参与的任何其他爱好和课外活动来表明您是一个全面发展的人，无论是音乐、运动还是其他激情和兴趣。Show you’re a well-rounded person by mentioning any other hobbies and extracurricular activities you’re involved in, whether that’s music, a sport, or other passions and interests.

重新阅读文书，并请别人校对，因为这是你炫耀你现有的书面和沟通技巧的方式。Re-read your statement, and ask someone else to proofread it, as this is your way of showing off your existing written and communication skills.
