Male Female

Well, I usually face a lot of problems in my life, but today I would like to share an experience where I handled a problem effectively in the past. When I was studying at the University of Jeffery, I was an undergraduate student. One of our lecturers assigned a group project to us and then randomly selected people for the group. I was assigned to work with people from different districts and language backgrounds. In the beginning of the project, it was difficult to communicate with them because I had a language barrier at that time. However, I believed that I could complete the project effectively. As I started the project, the Bavgurub batch members began to leave one by one due to personal commitments and went home. I started to panic. I asked them how I could complete this project on time. I requested an extension for the deadline. After they accepted my request and granted me permission, I made sure that everyone was available during that time. They were able to participate in the project. After that, I started the project and finally finished successfully, submitting it on time. This experience gave me positive feedback.
