In this part of the coursework I will describe my career plan for the next few years. There will be included my education and my job that I want to do.

Currently I am student in WKC and I do business course and functional skills (Maths level 2 and English Level 1). Firstly I want to finish my education in Westminster Kingsway College (Kings Cross Centre) for Business Enterprise and ICT level 2 with good degree (Merit or Distinction). I would like to apply for next year course in Westminster Kingsway College (Victoria Centre) for Access to Higher Education Diploma Business level 3 and do Functional skills (English level 2).

I have no plans after this course, because I am considering to improve my knowledge about business in University or start my own original business I have planned in these days. I might keep studying in university and make a new target to develop myself in finance area, but I might start my own business that I have shared with my parents and took some ideas from people who have similar business.

If I do my business idea, after one or two years when I am sure that I survived with my small business, I will keep developing my business and open new branches to increase my profit. I would like to start to do some other course related with my education and do some other job while my own business run it self.

I plan to improve my languages that I know (Bulgarian, English, Turkish and retake Russian language courses), after undertood these languages properly I might take course for my dream language (Spanish). I dream is to learn this language, because sound lovely language, I have plenty Spanish talker friends and there are many countries that speak it (I have open branches in these country as well, if my business is successful)
