While I was recording the video, the weather was hot and sunny. Due to the reason that there couldn't have any background noise, I could not turn on the air-conditioner or the fan. After recording for two hours, I was too hot that I could not stay focused anymore however I did not record a good video yet. My parents kept encouraging me to stay in for a little longer. I gave one more try and recorded a fine video. However, I knew that it wasn't the best.

Although I had signed up for four categories, I had never expected nor comprehended the fact that I had the ability to gain four flags in one go. When I received the results, I was utterly spellbound by what had happened.

At first, it felt like very hard to read the poem, but I got out of my comfort zone and decided to give it a try, when I was practicing, I learned that I needed to give more feelings and express it with my face and actions, I met a lot of difficulties, but at the end, I never gave up and completed the task. Finally,I would like to thank Mr. Stephen for training so early with me, if it wasn’t him, I wouldn’t get any prizes or taking any photos.

When Dr Lee told us about this competition, I was only a little bit interested. My mum still encouraged me to join because this was my last chance in primary school.

I was very happy when I was told that I got first place in the speech festival because I have never gotten first place before. I think the best way to get a good grade when performing is to project your voice and to always be confident. I am very grateful to Mrs Paul for honing my skills and teaching me new skills along the way.

I was absolutely delighted when I received first prize in the speech festival since it was the first time I was champion. It wasn’t a piece of cake, especially when there were a great number of opponents. When I was recording, I was nervous, really nervous. The poem wasn’t easy to recite, yet I tried my best to accomplish my task and so meant staying out of my comfort zone. So I followed the advices from Mr. Philip: I used my facial expressions more and spoke in a medium pace. I also found out it was essential not to blink my eyes, as it would look a bit silly to me, and would affect the results. Lastly, I would also like to thank Mr. Philip from encouraging and mentoring me to try my best, as it turned out to be extremely successful. So for the new contestants of the speech festival, I wish you all good luck and find it to be fascinating.

I personally think that this was the most memorable experience of speech festival as I can’t imagine that I would have won this competition.When I first started training for the speech, it felt so hard as I didn’t know how to pronounce the words and my feelings. I am also terrible at memorising the whole speech fluently. Thanks to Mr. Philip’s guidance, I improved overall on the speech and after some training. Eventually, I won the competition! I would like to thank my mother and Mr. Philip as they gave me a lot of support and encouragement.

I was sooooo excited to win in the speech festival again this year. English is always not an easy task to me, so I put much effort on practising the poem. With full of support and professional advices from Mr. Ching, I learned how to improve my pronunciation and use different facial expressions to show my feelings in the poem. Thanks a million to Mr. Ching who gives me a pair of MAGIC SHOES to the successful path. Also, thanks to my mum who always encourages me to try new things. Remember, impossible is nothing. Keep trying!
