Caiden: Task 1 Present a classmate to a group.

Me with my family^^

My feelings on doing the task 1

For a start, I’m really happy to share this task 1 with all of you through this blog.

I visited several classmates blogs, read their task 1 texts and watched videos.

They’ve done well. After I read their texts it made me feel more closer to them and I could understand how hard they studied.

I enjoyed doing this task 1 although it gave me little stress, because I had to record myself for the public. Some of you already know that I am bit of a shy person. When I meet someone
who speaks English, I try to hide from them. But, after I practiced recording myself I
found that I am getting better and better with my English speaking. Also it gives me self-confidence.

So, now I know how to improve my English speaking skills through this course. Practice as
much as I can before I record and review what I have recorded and find out mistakes from it. Afterward do it again until I am satisfied.

Of course , I have to put a lot of time into this process. That is why I am studying here
otherwise I can not improve my English skills.

I hope all of you enjoy this course and develop your English for social and communities.

Hi Caiden,
you have done well in your corrections. Don't forget "practice doing something" so "after I practised recording myself..." We also say "put time into something" so "I have to put a lot of time into this process".Otherwise, it's looking good:-)

Hi Caiden. Well done! I am really impressed with your video. What I like about is that you have a very friendly manner and look like you are really enjoying yourself. Also, your pronunciation is very clear and the way you you pauses in your presentation makes you very easy to understand. Keep up the good work!
