How to introduce myself?

[o_cat]

Hey dear teachers,
I'll have an interview by a foreign teacher and three chinese teachers a few days later. The main topic would be about why I want to be an graduate student and something about painting. In according to the process, I should to introduce myself at first. But I am not very clear about how to do this remarkable.

As this interview is very important to me, could you give me some suggestions?

P.S. Where could I find some special words about art or painting?

Thanks a million!

  Also, where can I find some ideas about things to say about art or painting?

I would state my name, mention the name of my school and school year ("I am a senior at XYZ University"), and say something about how happy I am to be there.

What I mean is, maybe somewhere has some words special in art, just like some dictionary in a special field, I want to find them, and learn them by heart. Could you catch me?

This is what I will say in my interview, could please give me some suggestions?

Good morning. I am glad to be here for this interview. First let me introduce myself. My name is cat, 22. I am a native of C.Q. I graduated from this University and also this department in July ,2003.In the past months I have been preparing for the postgraduate examination while doing some other things. Now all my hard work has got a result since I have a chance to be here to have interview by you .

I was deeply allured by art when I was a little girl. One day in my fours, my mother found her dictionaries, books, walls and doors in the home and even the clothes are all my paintings. She was so crazy that she decide to send me to an children art school the second day. The following days are filled with shapes, papers, crayons, and also colors and shapes, I was so curious and happy with these things and also many friend with the same interest that now I still cannot forget the days I spent in that school.

How times files! When I was 17, I went to this college to study art. But four years time has past in a flash. Then I did three jobs, as an elementary school teacher, as an art editor and a secretary. Besides the secretary the former two are still cannot give me painting time. So I decide to study more, to be an artist, to realize my dream. And that is the main reason why I stand here.

If I could study in this college in the future three years, I simply make such a plan. First and foremost, I will study hard and do my best to be an excellent student. In the second place, I want to try my best to join some exhibition, to prove my ability. Furthermore, I hope I can find my way to realize my dream while finance myself.

As a younger, I am open-minded ,quick in thought and very fond of all forms of art. In my spare time, like many other younger I have broad interests such as reading books, listen to all kinds of music, computer and surfing the internet. I am also a poor Hi-Fi fan and very fond of headphone and headphone amplifier, although I haven’t got an excellent set yet.

As the old saying goes easier said than done. I know there are many difficulties in fount of me. But in my humble opinion, man proposes, God disposes. I have confidence to be an eligible people.

That’s all. Thank you!

Now all my hard work has got a result since I have a chance to be here to have interview by you .


I'd change this a bit:

Since I have the opportunity to be here for an interview with you, it seems that my work is bringing dividends.

Sorry, I've got to dash- I'll be back later to have a proper look. ;-)

I hope Tdol won't mind if I take a shot at it. :wink:

I was so curious and happy with these things and so glad for the friends I made there that the memories of the place still seem fresh to me.

So, how did I do?
