Travel & Tourism Personal Statement

Why do I want to go on to higher education? Well ever since I started the AVCE Travel & Tourism course I have gained interest in the tourism industry, and I have come to notice that there are mass opportunities in the market, which has yet to be exploited, and I in the future want to do exactly that

I'm very business minded and I have many ideas, which I can expand on in the future. But before I do so I want to be more knowledgeable about the travel and tourism industry, because if I do go into this field of work then I want to know what type of characteristics I need to build on in order to be successful in what ever I do in the future

What I've learnt from life so far is people come and go, opportunities come and go and what I've always maintained is faith and belief and so long as I have that I can go very far in life and never look back and think to myself do I need to go back? And I believe that I have every potential to grab opportunities as they come as I've seen time does not wait for you, you have to wait for the right time to come. And its time to move on to bigger and better things which life is kindly offering

What I have acquired from this AVCE Travel& Tourism course is organisational and leadership qualities, this is because for one of our units 'Event Management' we as a group of 5 had to organise a poster competition using KS2 children, as they individually had to create posters around the theme of the Docklands

What this experience enabled me to do is make critical/contingent decisions; analytically, this was because I was very observant and analysed situations and would quickly come to a conclusion/judgement because I have an eye for detail and I wanted everything well organised so that we would be able to manage the event more effectively and efficiently and we did

And during my two-week block of work experience at the Tower of London I've learnt to be more responsible this was because I was acting as a stand-in tour guide to teachers and children from various schools within the borough of Tower Hamlets. My basic duty was to take them in and around the Tower with an assigned partner and make sure that any questions asked were answered in detail

Apart from studying I am a very family orientated person, I always put my family first. I have a keen interest in Football and also regularly go to the gym; I also enjoy spending time with friends and enjoy listening to music

Tourism has made me keen in broadening my knowledge and given the chance I will do so with full dedication, determination and continuous persistence as I am a motivated, sophisticated and charismatic individual who believes in you only get one chance to make a first impression and my recognition would be by accomplishing my objective which is to obtain a degree in Tourism and make myself realise that I have worked towards my potential which thus will be the basis of my success in the future.
