MAIN BODY
Skills Analysis
Skills plays important role in life of student such as it helps them in learning new things as well
as developed their overall personality. In addition to this some crucial skills that every
individual should have is Time management skill that is defined as method of planning and
balancing time between different activities. It helps in allocating the time for the task so that
goals can be achieved effectively (Stout and et.al., 2021). It includes some of important abilities
such as organizing, goal setting and prioritizing. In addition to this, it is important for student as
it helps in completing more of its task in less time as their attention are more focused. Thus, it
helps to complete the task easily and in limed frame of time. Thus, it contributes in building
sense of discipline in them. Along with this, I feel that it is very positive skill and it will help in
completing the task on time (Zeeman and et.al., 2019). However, I have analysed that my time
management skill is very poor as I ma not able to complete my task on time due to lot of
distraction. So I need to improve this skill I will be making master schedule in which I will be
recording my daily activities and time at which it needs to be completed. It will help in
identifying gown much time I am requiring as well as my progress. Along with this, I will be
attending video lecture so that I can learn about how to manage time (Hamdani, 2018).
Moreover, another important skill that need to be developed by student is team work skill. That
means working with group of people in order to achieve common goals in effective manner.
Although to make this skill better a person should posses trust, self-awareness and tolerance
as it is important to manage them while working. This skill plays essential role in life of
student such as it enables them to share their ideas that contributes in building creativity (Tan

and Laswad,2018). It also helps learners to take responsibility of completing their task as
well as it reduce stress. Although collaborating with other group member allow student to
solve difficult issues and brainstorming provides them to exchange ideas and come up with
creative mind. In addition to this, I have a positive feeling towards this as I have better social
skill that helps in making good friends and work effectively in team (Harris and Williams,
2020). Moreover, I can develop and improve this ability by participating in event or group
project as it will provide me with an opportunity of working with others. Moreover, another
skill that is crucial for student is academic reading skill that means ability or a capacity to
read or write the content (Sambell, Lo and Lawlis, 2020). It plays significant role in life of
student as reading allow them to improve their vocabulary and communication as well as
increase their creativity. Along with this, it also helps student in improving their concentration
and reduces their stress. Moreover, I feel moderate about this skill as my reading skills are
good. Although it can be develop by reading articles, books and journals.

gap as well as strength and weakness of an individual. Along with this, skills play crucial role
in student life style as it helps them in developing their personality.
