On last Friday, after school, before you joined your friends to District 21,you told me that you raised your hand when asked by teacher who wanted to join Public Speaking competition. I messaged teacher through Remind to get more details of the competition and I received a word document from her, stating the date of the competition, 3 students being selected, 1st speech has to be 2 minutes. 4 winners will be selected. Winners will draw a topic, given 10 minutes to prepare a 5 minutes speech.
Luckily on Sunday afternoon, we decided to check out Modern English center to check out their English classes and both you and jk went for the assessment.
At the center I saw a leaflet about Public Speaking class. I immediately asked if they have a 1-1 session just for these few days before your competition on Wednesday. the principle Steve said he will talked to his teacher after 2.30 pm if he is interested. So teacher Mike whatsapp me later at 3pm. We discussed the time and rate, sent him the words document with the competition details. He charges RM50/hour and RM100/2 hours. I asked if he can start on Sunday that evening. He agreed. What a relief!!
So you had 3 classes with him at 7-9pm on Sunday, 6.30-8.30 on Monday and 6-8.30pm on Tuesday with him.
Today is the day of your competition and I've been feeling so nervous. I can't watch cos parents aren't allowed to attend. I hope you enjoy the moment. It's a good experience. You feel proud that you joined and you hope to win this competition. I'm delighted to hear this as you have never wanted to win anything. Even selected to join swimming competition, you turn the offer down.
