Together Towards Success!



WHO AM I?
I’m Margarita and I currently a student for Biomedical Sciences on my foundation year. I am your
student representative, president of International Student Society and secretary of Sciences Society.
 
WHY ME?
I am a determined and progressive individual. Diplomacy is my strength. I am able to evaluate the
situation and choose the required steps in solving a case. I am self-reflective, this means that I learn
from making mistakes, in fact they made me realize how much I have progressed and what else I
need to achieve in order to succeed. I am a hardworking individual, I can perfectly work under
pressure and I am able to carry out multiple tasks at once.
During this year I have worked close with many of you, as a student representative. This experience
has opened my eyes and made me aware of most of the difficulties that students face, going on the
red, the lecturer’s voice cutting, slow wi-fi connection, access problems, tight deadlines etc. As such I
have communicated continuously with the lecturers and module leaders, and this has helped to
increase my leadership, collaborative and confidence.
 
WHAT HAVE I DONE FOR YOU?
1. Foundation year students (Biomedical Sciences) had 3 tests within the same week. By
communicating closer with the lecturers, the dates for 2 of the tests were moved to a later
date.
2. We all had attendance issues, most of the students were confused on what N, Y, NR meant.
By contacting the module leader this confusion was sorted out.
 
3. I ensured that most students difficult situations (internet , weblearn) were communicated to
the module leader immediately.
 
WHAT ARE MY MAIN AIMS?
1. Help in promoting and increasing students employability within the SU department.
2. Promote and engage more activities with the societies.
3. Ensure there will be a mental health department with a 8-19pm availability that each
student can access.
4. Communicate with the library and increase the online books availability and also increase
the online journals access that our university has in different sites.
5. Create a website where all the students can contact me from 9-20pm, submit any request or
book an meeting.
6. Closely communicate with the University office to increase the scholarship (from only one
year to two years) for international students.
 
All of this can be possible with a hard work, determination, belief and a realistic approach. I
strongly belief that I have all of this qualities and that I am the ideal candidate for this
position. Vote for me, and let me be support you, let me be your voice, let me lead you
towards your success. TOGETHER TOWARDS SUCCESS!!!!
