Hello 京都NHK ESS members.
I am glad to announce the contents for the practice on Nov 23.
Genre:Speech
Title:Challenge “One minute speech No.2”
This practice has come for the first time in a year.
At real talks, you need to response swiftly to keep a conversation going, having no time to
translate what you are thinking about in Japanese into English.
Let’s train your output power in a talk.
Here is the process.
1. Make groups with 3 or 4 members in each group.
2. Each group has 20 topics listed on a sheet of paper.
3. The first speaker chooses one topic from the list and speaks anything about it for one minute.
Then the second person speaks about the same topic.
Next, the third person follows.
4. After all members finish speaking about the first topic, the second person picks a new topic
and starts the second round until all members finish speaking.
5. The third person continues the same process.
Do not think the matter seriously but speak promptly anything you think of.
Please keep talking as much as you can for a minute.
I expect you will be good kind of tired on your brain after this practice.
Thanks,
