Write about 6-10 sentences. What your career and educational aspirations are- i would like to study because and so... (This will help you show why you are suitable for the course).
Expand on this in three sentences. The reason why you like it etc
Put some of your outside interests on the form, but be you- so if you get an interview you can talk with conviction about your interest/hobbies- what makes you tick.

I have also written a personal statement and it really is not easy doing the start. You can start by giving a small background to teaching. Unis will always like it if you show that you have a good background and knowledge as to what is required in a degree. You can also start by quoting someone about teaching and try and reflect upon the quote with yourself. Try thinking about what you wish to get out of the degree and why you chose it. Then go on to say why you think you will be good for this degree and the uni and what activities you have participated in and how it has helped you. Hope this helps you and good luck with your application

i wouldn't bother if i was you, just write any old crap they don't even read it unless you are applying for a course that involves working with kids on graduation or a healthcare course where you will be giving medical advice after grad.
If it's some other course they won't read it I mean they have so many people applying it just isn't feesable to read every personal statement.
I worked in the admissions dept at my local uni and apparently this is common practice but good luck anyway.

hehe i had this problem a few weeks back:
you could start by saying what you would like to study and why u do, why u would benefit from doing this and from going to uni, then say what u are like and wot achievements u have so far, any jobs u have dun/do, work experience, ur activities outside college or whatever, that sort of thing!!
hope this helps!good luck!

Options:
1. It has always been a dream of mine to attend...
2. I can't believe I'm finally writing this. Its been years of hard work and I've almost reached my dream.
3. Look out world, here I come. One last hurdle to fly over and I'm there...

The start is difficult. It's the beginning and they don't know you yet so start by introducing yourself and why you are doing it.
