ANSWER-

I am really fond of learning new skills and add them to my skillset. One trait that I have developed over the period of time is public speaking.

When I was young, I remember I used to hesitate to talk to other students, raise my hand to ask doubts or read the lesson in front of the whole class. However, in grade 8th I had an amazing teacher. She used to teach us English. Her classes were full of activities. She used to make every student read one paragraph from a literature book daily in front of the whole class. Initially, I used to get nervous and anxious and did stammer a lot. But, later on with regular practice, I was able to speak fluently and confidently. I think that uncomfortable situation that my teacher put me in helped me to build my confidence.

Also, in our school every day one class was given the responsibility of conducting school assemblies. My teacher used to make sure that every student from our class was up on the stage and spoke with immense confidence. We also had many drama plays and theatre acts which further enhanced my communication skills. I believe that being a public speaker is an asset and one should definitely work on strengthening it. As it enhances one’s confidence and overall personality.

Sample Answer

Public transport is a medium of transport that is provided by a government or a private entity for the public. Highly convenient, reliable, and affordable as well, this medium of transport is a boon to millions of people worldwide. I also find it very beneficial, and it has proved to be of great importance time and again.

With so many people travelling from home to work, city to city, or interstate as well, it is important for them in order to commute from one place to another.

I personally find it to be a great service, as well as a blessing whenever any urgent task has required me to travel without a personal vehicle. There have been various instances wherein my car or motorcycle was not working, and I had to reach my workplace, or when I had to travel to another distant city and I couldn’t travel by car. One such memorable incident took place when I was in college. My summer vacations were about to end, and I suddenly fell ill. I could not use my car to travel due to fatigue, so I decided to take a bus. Reaching college was very important, so I booked my tickets and reached the bus station.

The bus started after a little while, and I sat down on my seat, looking out of the window. It was a very relaxed journey, as I did not have to drive, and I could eat snacks and read a book. I also had conversations with my fellow passengers and got time to look out at beautiful views from the window. Though I chose bus travel as I was ill, the amazing journey that I covered changed my perspective on bus travel as well. If I get a chance to travel by bus again, I would definitely choose it again.
