MUET Speaking

Today after school,me and my group members--Rathika,Ming Ying and Siok Sian were conducting a speaking practice at one of the shelter beside a block.Before it began,i suggested that we should take turn to learn to initiate the conversation so that it would be an advantage for our group.So,of course,I went as the first speaker for the practice for my first time.

Topic: Task A-Strategies to bring back tourists to Malaysia
(a)Make M'sia a friendly place to visit
(b)Organize roadshow/exhibition in foreign countries to promote Malaysia
(c)Offer more attractive tour packages at lower prices
(d)Organize more events for tourists at state and national levels
===>Task B-Discuss the most effective strategy

I was actually candidate B but accidentally took the point A as I kept thinking about how to start/begin the discussion.First I thought it would be an easy topic to talk with,but perhaps I lacked of practice recently and couldn't think of the points.Luckily,we skipped the task A,otherwise i would not be able to speak for the 2minutes for Task A.In my view,our discussion went quite smoothly since it was the first practice after the MUET trial(3weeks ago).

I think that at least i got improve a bit in expressing myself and in communicating with others but the grammatical mistakes were still annoying me.Sometime I can speak quite fluently but sometime r not.Somehow i'm not from English-speaking family so it will be tough for me if the question assigned is far from my knowledge.Then,I will need to think very hard to use some of the vocabs/phrases to express and present my points.I try not to mump but to state out my points clearly.BUT u know,sometime,i still couldn't speak up a full well-structured sentence due to the nervousness.

Rathika is the best speaker among us and she always start the conversion by introducing/stating out some of the phenomenon/situation related to the topic.Whereas,Ming Ying will be the 1 who can write the whole lots of good points and their elaborations on the draft paper within few minutes but speak like a china girl(with chinese accent due to her pronunciation).And,Siok Sian is the 1 who can also speak well but lacking of enough confidence.

Hope that the continuous practice which lasts for 1week will grow our confidence and also improve our fluency of English.Good Luck to all of us! PS: We love you, Mrs Eloquence!
