先日品川駅前校で、行われたスピーチコンテスト！

実は品川駅前校のBecky先生も、

日本語でのスピーチに挑戦！

そのときのことをブログに書いてくれました☆

I gave a speech in Japanese during

this year's speech contest.

I spoke about my hometown, Southport.

Southport is a large seaside town near Liverpool.

Most people haven't heard of it

so I usually just say I'm from Liverpool.

Since it's not very well-known,

I wanted to introduce Southport

to students at the speech contest.

I was nervous to give my speech

since it was my first time to speak Japanese

in front of a large group of people.

Luckily, I had it all memorized

so I was able to say everything smoothly

(besides a few minor hiccups).

I spoke about my town's history,

architecture and landscape,

which are all very beautiful.

I also spoke about

what it was like to grow-up there.

After my speech I answered some questions

from the audience about my speech in English.

I would definitely do it again!

I really recommend trying speech contest next year!

If I can do it, you can do it!
