    Just taking a moment to appreciate the fact that this video is barely edited and it’s just her talking, yet it catches people’s attention. It’s not common. That’s great!

    Does anyone else also find motivation letters quite unappealing?
    Do we still need them? Yes. Are they are important? Yes.
    Will I write one now? Yes..
    But I just find them, surprisingly, so devoid of personality. Despite being statements of character and personal history, they somehow fall flat on all that.
    I just dread making and reading these things.

      Truth and they just make people lie unnecessary.

      I think it's because we mostly only tell about our accomplishments and reasons for choosing the course. These are literally available just by test scores. We should write letters telling about our life experiences or who we are as a person.

    Video seemed to authentic! I am applying for ERASMUS as well to go to Ireland and this is my first time writing a motivation letter! You're video made me realize the importance of writing essay's more UNDERSTADANBLE. I think your way of explaining it made it very easy to understand the importance of what the Readers must know and understand, and therefore you definitely deserve praise for that! Greetings from GERMANY!!

    Thanks for the video Milena. If you are not asked to write a motivational letter, just a CV, do you reckon that it would be a good idea to write a paragraph including the ideas “ why you chose to study that specific degree and why in that university ? I haven’t graduated yet, this my last year at secondary school and I must write an extensive CV
