Info Speech: DONE! :)

Podcast Powered By Podbean

      Yes, finally! Our informative speech was over! But let me tell you this, it wasn't easy. Days before my speech, when I'm still picturing myself on how my presentation will go, I thought it will be easy. But things went really different when that day arrived. I felt really nervous. My hands were cold and I can't really concentrate in listening to the other speakers before me. And on my actual speaking, there are times that my voice stutter. At the back of my mind, I really know what to say, but I just can't say it out loud. But thanks to my visuals, it helped me a lot. It guided me on where to talk next. That's what I did right! But I needed to improve in so many things especially on being nervous. Because even after my speech, I can still feel my nervousness. I also needed to work more in my speech for it to be better. I should allot plenty of time to do it. And I hope, for my next speech, that it will be way better than my last.

     We were also asked to submit questions in twitter if there's any. There are many questions that I have encountered and three of them are Ronalyn's Jamaica's and Angel's. Ronalyn asked me if I agree with the implementation of the K+12 education program here in the Philippines. Yes, I agree because, with the benefits that it can give to the society as a whole, it will help of us, hopefully. Angel also asked me if this was a good decision, and I think that it is, because I am looking forward to the benefits it can give to us and how it can uplift our status right now in many aspects. While Jamaica asked me if these additional years will just make the lives of the Filipinos harder especially the poor. Yes, maybe, it will be hard for most of us, but just think about of the things it can give back to us if this will pursue. Maybe these things are not yet seen, of course, but if this will be a success, it will improve a lot of things. I also appreciate others, who asked me questions and I hoped that my answers satisfied you. Thank you! :)

K+12 Education Program: Advantages and Disadvantages

Podcast Powered By Podbean

Okay, for this one, I will talk about my proposed topic for my informative speech in our English class. I would like to discuss something about the K+12 education program that will be implemented here in the Philippines. Specifically, its benefits and disadvantages for the people and the country. I wanted to share to my audience my knowledge about it and the good things it can do for us.

We, Filipino citizens, especially us, college students, should be aware in the happenings in our society. We should have knowledge to it and be responsible enough to have the care to know something about it. Maybe, these things like the K+12 education program is not our interest to talk about but, it is our need to know even just the basics about it, for we, the future professionals, needs to be knowledgeable in all aspects of the society. And the speeches like what we’ll do will offer each of us a better understanding of different things that are happening around us.

For my speech itself, I’m planning to say a short quotation or a question, maybe, to start it and a brief background or history of our existing education system to follow it. For the body, I’m thinking of discussing the benefits and the downside of the topic. Also, I will include some statistics to support the things that I will say. And lastly, to conclude and end my speech, I will shortly summarize it all and just have a closing statement.

Hopefully, all of these will turn out great to help all of us.

Nervous? Don’t Worry, It’s A Common Thing

Podcast Powered By Podbean

Honestly, being nervous is not a difficult thing for me because I get so nervous easily. Standing in front of a huge crowd makes me sick especially, if they are unfamiliar to me. That’s why, in the discussion made in our English Two class, I was glad to know the science behind our nervousness, that there are scientific explanations behind it. 

But don’t worry, there’s more! Being nervous, I can say, if not normal, is common for many people. And there are many ways that you can do to control or lessen it. One way is controlling your breath. You need to manage inhaling and exhaling the proper way. Another one is to create good imagination on what will happen. Picture yourself doing a great job speaking in front of many people. In this way, you can expect on one way or another, the things that SHOULD happen.

For our speech this term, I have an interest on the topics, family relations or the K+12 education. I chose family relations, specifically, the effect of eating together with your family members, because I think I can find many resources about it and I hope it can help many families to realize its benefits. Another topic that I am thinking of is the K+12 education program that will be implemented here in the Philippines. I chose this one because I already have a little knowledge about it and I wanted to share to others the different effects of this program to the Filipino citizens and to our whole country.
