Statement of Purpose: Please explain your reasons for wanting to participate in the courses you selected.
What impact will your participation in this program have on your institution, or region, and how do you
expect to use the knowledge acquired in this course?
I have three reasons why I want to participate in the course. The first reason is that I don't have money to attend
classes to improve my English skills. The second fact is that I don't have many experiences as a English teacher.
Thirdly, I am a final year student and I didn't get degree because of political situations. I teach kids English and I
realize that I need to improve my English skills to teach my pupils better than ever. There will be many impacts if I
have a chance to join this course. I will give many knowledge about English skills to my pupils if I participate this
course. I will teach kids English as much as I can. As a youth, I need this chance to participate this course. I can make
kids to understand English than others can. So, if I get a chance to join this course, there will be many impacts on kids.

Please assess your computer skill level. Good
