When I stopped being on radio 6 years ago back in 2014, my initial plan was to hold workshops that empowered others to speak better.
Based on my experience, I knew that speaking well is not something you’re “born with” or that you need to be “extroverted” to excel in. It was something that you could learn, a life skill that you could master to succeed! After all, I learnt it for 10 years.
But I decided to pursue other things because I wasn’t sure of what the response might be like.
Fast forward to the beginning of this year, when COVID / MCO hit & small business owners, such as myself were all forced to: “pivot” (I can’t stand this word but it describes the situation perfectly).
I decided to revisit my 6 year old idea. It has now been 6 months since I started my first workshop in April 2020. Thank you for all the support you have shown!
Now on to bigger things! With the help of @spacesworks , I am now launching an actual (not online) workshop this 30/9/2020, 2pm at Spaces, Menara Prestige!
An intensive workshop (4hrs in total!) aimed at helping those who wish to improve & reach their full potential through effective communication & building on your inter-personal relationship skills.
✔️ Examples from my real, practical experience (not theory)
✔️ Group & individual activities
✔️ Course notes
✔️ Focused attention to problems faced by each individual
✔️ RM250 for non Spaces members with a FREE day pass at any location (valued at RM169)
✔️ RM200 (20% off) for Spaces members

如何寫好神級personal essay?
【明報專訊】蕭叔叔每次幫人edit升大學的personal essay或獎學金申請書,都一定要同佢坐低傾足粒幾鐘,先可以開始edit。點解?因為蕭叔叔要100%了解佢興趣同passion、有什麼真正理由非申請呢個學位不可,先有可能寫出獨一無二的申請信。為什麼要獨一無二?Admission officer 一天讀幾十封信,假如不stand out,怎會有interview的機會?那該怎樣寫?請記住以下原則。
1. Throw away the templates.
網上找得到的樣板申請信,唔該,唔好用喇。Your essay should be unique, and uniquely you. 文字是否出於真心,讀者都看得出。
2. Show, don't just tell.
係人都懂得吹的廉價形容詞,就省下來吧。什麼creative thinker、great attention to detail、logically-minded這些好像對住admission requirements照抄的詞,誰不懂寫?寫了,哪會有用?不是說這些qualities都不關事,只是你要找方法說服你的reader,你的確擁有這些qualities。要stories and concrete examples, colourful examples that can help your reader depict what kind of person you are。人人都懂得吹的廢話,請節省少少。
3. Don't be afraid to market yourself.
好多人都唔識sell自己。舉個例,有個學生想申請獎學金到外國修讀mass communication的碩士課程。他在某大電台任職,負責節目製作,多年製作過不少很受歡迎而獨一無二的節目。寫申請信時一定要多花筆墨介紹電台(香港的電台,外國人未必知道)及談談他最巴閉的節目,例如獲得的獎項、節目受歡迎程度,以及其他特別之處。這跟所報科目有關,也能表現能力,應該多講多sell。
4. Show your unique insight into the field.
寫你對學科或行業的獨特見解,或特別能力。見解很重要,因為能表現你對學科的認識、興趣、insight和passion。舉個例,如果蕭叔叔要報讀Master's in Linguistics或Teaching English as a Second Language,不能只寫 I'm very passionate about English teaching。我會講我有什麼在英文教學界「人無我有」的經驗,或對科目有什麼insight。例如我會先講自己工作獨特之處:
I consider myself a specialist in the English teaching industry — I help business executives and professionals improve their spoken English. I work with them on all aspects of their oral English, from pronunciation to speech delivery. Instead of limiting myself to the teaching of articulation, I focus a lot on improving the prosodic features of my clients' English speech, namely, speech rhythm and intonation — areas that many English teachers find difficult, if not impossible, to teach.
然後再elaborate:為什麼rhythm and intonation對香港人來說特別難學,自己有什麼特別的教法等等,顯出對自己科目的見解。當然,最後還要扣題,講清楚why studying linguistics at the postgraduate level will help me achieve my goals (doing further research into pronunciation teaching and devising new ways of teaching).
如果你發現無咁多野寫,點算?咁可能係你未準備好讀呢科,或者未必真係對呢科咁有熱誠或興趣,咁蕭叔叔都幫你唔到。
