The skill that was hard for me to learn is graphic design because it was challenging to study many tools in software like Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. I started learning about a year ago because I wanted to become a graphic designer to create branding materials. I found it really interesting and impressive. I faced many challenges while studying this skill, mainly because my English is not good enough. Many tools are in English, and the structure of any script or video training is also in English, so I encountered obstacles. However, I persevered and built my skills by watching new videos. After a year of training and practice, I can create or renovate any branding material, like posters and banners, and I am able to provide these for my clients, students, and especially for my teacher to promote the school. I believe my skills are great now; I can do anything I want. However, I know I need to improve a lot because, as a student, learning never ends. I need to work on becoming a better version of myself and acquire more skills in graphic design. I also plan to learn about video editing because these two skills complement each other very well.
