At the Speaker's Corner

I think it was a great idea to recreate a Speaker's Corner situation in class, where we had the possibility to express ourselves and get on our soapbox about the issues that annoy each of us. Besides, I had great fun! After listening to everyone's speeches, I could see that this activity helped us speak fluently (and angrily) without actually realising we were performing a task for which we were going to get a grade. I also noticed that I will need to improve on my fluency and relax a little bit more in the next speaking tasks.

  3. It was a great experience indeed! I felt like a stand-up comedian! (a bit devaluated, of course!)
