About Myself
Let me introduce myself. My name is Oleg Petrov. I was born in the town of Svisloch, Grodno region on July 18, 1995. Our town is quite modern and beautiful. I finished our town secondary school. I did quite well at school. My favourite subjects were Math and Physics. Since childhood I enjoyed helping my grandparents, who live in a village. I am also interested in machinery. That‘s why I decided to become an agricultural engineer and entered Belarusian State Agrarian TechnicalUniversity.
Now I am a first year student of the farm machinery service department. I am going to be a farm machinery maintenance engineer. Nowadays in our highly competitive world one should be armed with good knowledge. Education does not end with graduation. An engineer should develop professionally throughout his/her life. He/she should always follow the trend in the newest technologies, read specialized literature, and communicate with fellow engineers. To be able to do this one should have a good command of
foreign languages. That‘s why I try to do my best to learn English. Knowing it is also of great help to me as I use computer and Internet a lot. I also enjoy listening to songs in English and it feels good to understand the lyrics.
I live in our university student hostel. I am quite sociable and have got a lot offriends. We like to play football and volleyball together. Sometimes we go fishing. I am also interested in programming and playing computer games.
