Um, so today I’m going to share with you about a time when my classmate did quite well on my team. So back to the day when I was at class eleven a, the history teacher usually gave us many projects to do. So she forced us, uh, to prepare a presentation with a length ten minutes or above. And at that time, I was like, I was exhorted and I felt very tired all the day because there was a lot of assignments and also projects to do. And at the beginning of grade eleven, Chang, uh, is a new student and she had just moved to our class in the beginning of grade eleven. And additionally, I found it very difficult for her because she didn’t know anyone in my class. That’s why she was quite timid and shined in my class. Unfortunately, she was chosen to be the person who should get a lector about a, uh, history event in front of 40 people in my class. When I heard that news, I was shocked because I think it was too difficult for her. It was too challenging because she had never talked in front of the class for even 1 minute, even 1 minute. And to my relief and surprise, uh, at the day that she had to take the presentation, she turned into a new person. Like, she talked very freuency about that event. And after she ending her talk, like all the classmates in my class all clapped for her because of her progress on this presentation.

Um, so today I'm going to share with you about a time when a classmate of mine did quite well on a team project. Back in my eleventh grade class, our history teacher often assigned us group projects. One time, she required us to prepare a presentation that was at least ten minutes long. I was feeling overwhelmed and exhausted because we had a lot of assignments and projects to complete. At the beginning of eleventh grade, a new student named Chang joined our class. It was difficult for her because she didn't know anyone. She was quite shy and kept to herself. Unfortunately, she was chosen to give a presentation about a historical event in front of our entire class of 40 students. When I heard that, I was shocked because I thought it was too difficult for her. It was a huge challenge because she had never spoken in front of the class for even a minute. To my relief and surprise, on the day of her presentation, she transformed into a completely different person. She spoke confidently and fluently about the event. After she finished, everyone in the class applauded her for her progress and her amazing presentation.
