As a result, all students are expected to have a better career with greater chances for

in life with the support of better career development (Claro and et.al., 2018). The report
outlines the value of various skills that influence and improve the future. The objective of this
report is to improve various skills for the overall betterment and to establish credibility as a
creative learner by demonstrating the study techniques and support services required for
higher education.
Discussion
I was able to learn and progress in a variety of understanding of brief with the help of this
module and its lessons. The learning process is essential for an individual's personal and
intellectual development. All of the learners were able to divide the activities down into
smaller chunks, resulting in short- and long-term goals that will help them complete the tasks
for overall development. Mentors have had a significant impact on my life and studies mainly
in clearing doubts about understanding the brief (Gonzalez Vazquez, and et.al.,2019).
With the help of sessions, I've learned about the benefits of understanding and I also
understood learning strategies and methods. Along with it, with the help of test papers, I was
able to study more, and exams motivated me to focus better. That is why I will be able to
monitor my performance through self-analysis. Furthermore, my seniors and mentors taught
me a lot of new techniques as they advised me to take a different perspective on things and in
life
Time management skills are increasingly important in today's world, and for personal
development. As a result, the learners must have the things sorted talents. This strength is
directly linked to various abilities such as teamwork, leadership, motivation, and a variety of
others. Time management assists learners to have a better understanding of a situation to
respond more effectively. It helps all learners learn and understand things better, and do self-
assessments timely. All learners' personal development requires this particular ability for the
overall development (Fikri, and et.al., 2020).
The level of achievement can be determined by effectively managing time for all
tasks. Multitasking and efficient task management will be the measures of success by which I
will judge my success. In my future project, These skills will be demonstrated by choosing a

proper learning method to build ahead of my goals, and I'll work with a group to be more
accountable and confident in my decisions. The components and responsibilities will be
assigned according to the learners' abilities for a better result. With the help of mentoring, I
will be able to confidently express my thoughts and feelings in front of people.
Another skill I gained from this module is prioritization skill which allowed me to
complete my tasks based on their importance. It also enables me to deal with and cope with a
range of situations and barriers to find the best answers. With the help of prioritization skills,
I was also able to evaluate the numerous talents that I acquired during my education journey.
In terms of cooperation, I learned to work in groups with ease to reach my goals. I realized
how important it was to work as part of a team and to follow the instructions of the senior
mentors.
Thanks to the knowledge I received over my learning process, I am now more confident
about myself and in addition to this I recognised the value of prioritization by observing
others is another method for keeping myself organized. Adding professionalism to the
learning process on a specific subject is likely to lead to greater progress in the real world.
Also, I will continue to keep myself organized by organizing all of my tasks, and I now have
more transparency in my opinions regarding many points of view, challenges, and themes in
my knowledge (Succi and Canovi, 2020).
I am required to develop my public speaking skills as a great public speaker can
persuade an audience to do something, stop doing something, change a behavior, or achieve
goals. However, one must be able to inspire others in order to move an idea forward. Also,
society's backbone is communication and It enables us to build bonds, influence decisions,
and inspire change for the betterment. The ability to grow in the learning process and life
would be practically impossible without communication skills which is why it is required to
develop this skill.
This skill can be developed by relaxing my body language and I'll have to be in front
of a real audience. In addition to this, I need to balance my voice and breath control for better
delivery of words. Also, further additions can be made such as visual assistance is
PowerPoint presentation, which can help in making the main points while engaging the
audience more effectively (Sokhanvar, Salehi and Sokhanvar, 2021).
I am also required to develop my Self-management skills through which I will be able
to control my workflow and productivity in my learning. Self-management skills can help me
to improve my professional performance and advance my career by developing and
practicing them. Also, self-management techniques can help me in managing my time more

effectively. Positive thinking, focus, and priority will help me to make better use of my time
and skills.
That can be improved by making short- and medium-term goals for myself and also by
reading books. In addition to this, eating properly will also enhance this skill and reduce
stress, increase well-being, and approach each day's program with new ideas, prioritizing
mental health and self-care.
Another skill is Digital Literacy and the ability to use technology is denoted as digital
literacy. One can utilize the digital literacy abilities to access, use, and create information
online productively and beneficially which allows the learners to utilize technology securely
and avoid its risks. To collaborate and learn, I need to use social media and free online
courses are also available. I'll track my progress by taking online assessments and interacting
with tools. Setting clear, calculable targets is critical for achieving future results. These goals
will assist me in determining which digital literacy skills to focus on. By collaborating with
other learners I will be able to create these objectives, ensuring that everyone's aims and
viewpoints are taken into account.
Conclusion
The above-mentioned analysis leads to the conclusion that various skills are required
to be improved as a learner. Various ways can be used for increasing the overall performance
of the learning process. By making use of various sessions and guidance from seniors, I was
able to improve my performance by saving time and energy. In this module, I was able to
improve my level of knowledge by strengthening my understanding of the topic of numerous
skills which will be applied in various situations and circumstances.
