I attended the New Oriental Summer Camp recruit this afternoon. In the first round, we were asked to introduce ourselves in English and then spend 1.5-3 mins to teach in the class. I did a bad job this time, to be accurate, everytime when I tried to make a speech on the platform.
My dear friend Lily, unlike me, did a very wonderful job! She told me that what I said was too plain and flat, easily distracting the audience. That's also what I have noticed since my first year in this uni. At that time, I was taking part in a lecture competition. While practising before my friend, she suggested that I be more sentimental rather than a impassive, dull speaker. But I didn't change much till the day I went on the stage.
In addition, I had a butterfly in my stomach everytime I speak before people, which really upsets me!
What a shame today! What a day! I felt so terrible!
After complaining, I think I should take action now. Try to be more brave and try to catch every chance to present before the class and talk with others, not only those trifles but everything from the economy to the school policies,etc. I used to hide too much from others. It's time to show the real me out. Be more confident!
Come on, Benben!
