Your First Presentation
Prepare to give a 3-minute presentation about yourself. You can choose what aspects of yourself you want to speak about. Examples of you may want to include in your speech include: your childhood, family, hobbies, ambitions, life goals, favourite meal, places you like to visit, etc. You choose what you will like to talk about, provided it is not about religion or politics.
05
Personality Type Test
This must be done with the assistance of the parent/guardian. Identifying your child's personality type and understanding their personality traits, are the first steps in understanding what learning methods best suit them. They are also the first steps in building their confidence and developing their public speaking skills. So, we kindly ask that you sit down with them, click here and support them as they take the test. We shall be grateful if you can share the outcome of the test with us (via email).
