My To- Do List
This week, I attended a new course: Skills Life Canada. The skills can help newcomers become independent and confident for life in Canada. This program includes thinking about yourself, caring for your relationships, and finally, thinking for yourself. I was interested in positive interpersonal communication skills. We all came from different countries and we all had different cultural backgrounds. We will need to learn positive communication skills for Canada that will bring success to our business, family and personal life. For example, communicate often, keep smiling, praise and compliment, stick to the issue and be respectful. I though communication skills was very useful to me. It can improve my relationships.
Beside this, I was also interested in the program of setting goals. Everyone has their own goals and I have mine too. On the last day of the class, we did an exercise about" my to-do list "to help achieve our own goals. After the exercise, everyone shared his or her own list, and everyone wants a job in Canada. I though it was normal. So, I have already done my list, and l wish to complete it successfully. My list is as follows:
Long and short-term goals:
1. Continue my job as a nurse in Toronto, my long-term goal, 3 years.
2. Improve my English from level 6 to level 7, my mild-term goal, 6 months.
3. Improve my English from level 5 to level 6, my short-term goal, 3-4 months
When my English improves to level 7, I can attend nursing programs provided by the government. The program can prepare me to join nursing schools in Toronto.
My bite-sized steps:
1. Go to LINC school everyday.
2. Write a blog once a week.
3. Watch CBC news from 5:30 to 6:30 every afternoon.
4. Watch English TV as much as I can.
5. Read a grammar book by myself three time a week.
6. Chat in English with friends.
7. Writting with English in my notes, messages and emails
