first presentation

Assalamualaikum and hi all.

Finally all my fear and nervousness have faded away. All the tense and burden finally ended. I've submitted all my assignments. Done with all the tests and more importantly I'm done with my presentation. This presentation is nothing much actually. We just need to present our school visit and practicum experiences. But this is our very first presentation here and the assessors were Shyrell and Jackey. Well, if you know Shyrell, you will definitely freak out to know that she's going to assess you. She's very critical. She would ask an issue until you have no answer for the question. On the positive side, it's good to make you a critical thinker. You are going to be a teacher. Think critically or else you will be an ordinary teacher with ordinary skill in the ordinary setting. 

There were about 100++ students in the hall and obviously they were all Malaysia because the purpose of this presentation is to compare and contrast Malaysia and New Zealand education systems. There were 2nd and 3rd year Mara students, 3rd year IPBA students and us, 2nd year IPTI students. It was a great pleasure to see all Malaysian TESL students.

The presentation was held at the Business building, in the auditorium. It's one of the biggest lecture halls at this university. It's even bigger than cinema hall I ever went.  Then, why shouldn't I shake. My legs turned into jelly straight away after I opened the hall's door. OMG, this is damn big. My group was the third group to present. Could you feel the tense? Being the youngest among all, I felt inferior. Senior, super senior were knowledgeable. Their points were solid. They were confident. They speak very fast and fluent.  

This is our Mara seniors. They had more experience than we do. They have better understanding of the system and their English amazingly awesome. 

After we finished, we walked around and snapped some pictures. I just finished my ESOL 210 assignment before the presentation ended. My group was among the earliest to present so I had time to finish my assignment. I managed to finish it in limited time. I thought I couldn't finish it. Alhamdulillah, Allah permudahkan segala urusan aku. Tak rasa terbeban nak buat even susah at first aku tengok. It was research report.

The feelings after we've done with all the academic stuff was indescribable. Hey, I'm ready for summer break. Oh, oh. I love this moment. Tonight I'm going to lay on bed and read the novel I bought last few days. I'll fall asleep while reading. I love this.

Ya ALLAh terima kasih kerana telah mempermudahkan segala urusanku. ada sorang kawan berpesan " fareha, jaga iman, jaga hati tau'...ok, terngia-ngia kt telinga sekarang ni....
