　　Dear --,

　　The dynamics of Psychology affect our everyday life and behaviour,this iswhat me so interested in the subject. From an early age, I often wondered why weact as we do and what effects us as we grow up. I always had a strong interestas to why people were so different even though genetically, everyone is similar.I have thoroughly enjoyed the subject, especially conformity. It fascinates meas it portrays how strong peer pressure can be and I believe this is the mainsubject that deals with why we act the way we do. We conform everyday, offeringa wide knowledge on behaviour. I am enjoying studying how the body and mind workand why certain things affect certain people. I find it useful on a personalbasis as it can be used to e-plain many problems such as how illness isconnected to stress.

　　For 9 years I have aspired to be a teacher. After studying psychology, I amcertain that is what I wish to do for the rest of my life. After a weeks worke-perience at Mill Lodge primary school, I decided I did not want to teach suchyoung students, however, it made me certain that I want to pursue a career inteaching. My work e-perience increased my patience with children and gave me awide overview of types of students. For a year and a half I have worked inTesco, helping my patience and confidence, which was once lacking, has improved,showing a large e-panse of people skills, with customers and staff members,giving me the e-perience of working as a team.

　　Active participation in school life has also been rewarding. Whilst atLight Hall, I helped with projects run by the school. From February 20__onwards, I was commended for supporting special needs pupils from Hazel OakSchool by helping with IT work. I assisted one teacher and one pupil in helpingthem create various IT projects. This boosted my enthusiasm to be a teacher.From a young age I played netball, playing for 7 years in total in the positionof goal keeper. In Year 11, I taught students in years 7-9 how to play to thebest of their abilities. However, I had to give up this hobby when startingcollege due to other commitments and desire to start e-tra courses. Regardless,I am determined to begin this hobby once again.

　　I was part of the student council at Light Hall, additionally attendingmeetings with the head teacher and other senior staff. In year 11, the 'StudentVoice' was introduced where two students from each year, including myself, wereselected to speak to the school's board of governors. At college, I joined thestudent council again. In my first year, I was nominated as a member of my formto be in the student council and I was then asked to attend a 'faculty meeting'every so often with my head of faculty and other students. However, in my secondyear I am part of a small group of around 10 students in the year who are the'e-ecutive'. My role is Environmental Officer, something I am proud to berepresenting and passionate about as it is a problem which is being discussedglobally and I am happy to do my bit to help. At college and school Iparticipated in Open Evenings. I then proceeded to help on a 'Welcome to CollegeDay,' speaking to students about the benefits of taking Sign Language as part ofa Enrichment course and then advertised the student council whilst guiding newstudents.

　　One of my main strengths is Sign Language. I began a course with CACDP inyear 12, sustaining a qualification of Level 1 in BSL. As a form of worke-perience, I will be helping students this year with their Level 1 studies.Overall, I am a committed and reliable student with passion about education.Taster days at universities (Warwick, O-ford and Birmingham) made me certainthat university is the ideal environment for me to enhance my studies. I feelthis course will lead me to success. After Higher Education, I plan to studypsychology further and become a teacher of Psychology in colleges, hopefullygiving students the chance to share my keen interest in Psychology.

　　Yours sincerely,
