Hello,
My name is Grace A.K.A. GCL, and I am a junior at San Jose State University. I am a Communication Studies Major and I thoroughly enjoy studying Communications because I am able to use what I have learned in the different areas of my life: business, social, personal, school etc...
I think the bulk of my "communication experience" comes from the different jobs that I have had in my life. From a Starbucks Barista & retail clerk, to my current position as an Assistant Manager of a financial institution, I found that being an effective communicator is important to be successful in any job. In addition, you have to be able to adapt and be receptive of different communication styles and also be able to tailor your communication style as different situations arise. I hope that this course will help me to further understand how to be an effective communication in small group settings - especially in my current job.
As far as online courses go... I love them! This is my fifth online course here at State and I took quite a few while I was at De Anza. I would say that this is definitely not for everyone and it does require a great deal of discipline. However, I personally enjoy them for two reasons: 1) Save on gas and parking and 2) You get to go at your own pace - if you have a busy weekend coming up, you can pretty much do all your homework in one day and just remember to post it at the different scheduled times.
My current interests include: going to the gym, sleeping, watching movies, and reading.
Well, that's enough about me... I wish everyone the best of luck this semester!!!
Sincerely,
GCL
