INTRODUCTION
While pursuing different courses at the university students prepare for succeeding in their
career by gaining knowledge and required skills that can help in their personal and professional
development. The students during their studies develop as learners and develop various skills
which are important in getting selected in their desired organisations or to get entry in their
desired colleges for further studies (Kohon, 2018). Knowledge so developed helps them in
becoming efficient in taking life decisions so and solving the problems faced by them in a

success so that they can become successful in their lives. In this report the way in which students
develop as a learner will be discussed along with the way in which they can deal with challenges
and expectation in future university courses.

information given by teachers helped me in scoring good marks in my exams. Communication
skills are the abilities that help in sharing information in an effective manner so that the
information can be understood in its actual meaning (Jones, 2020). The communication skills
that i developed in university as a learner were both verbal and non verbal which helped me in
effectively sharing information so that actual meaning of information can be kept intact that can
