    Firstly nice to meet you,Miss Intan,about the speed talk,I have to say it not only really increase my confidence but also increase the speaking skills.That's because I can think more and plan more.It's a chance of excise.By the way,males and females talk each other,because sometimes the people will shy,so it's a good idear to increase confidence

    Good evening Pn.Intan...Talk about the speed talk that we did on Tuesday,it was a new experience for me..i never did it before..honestly i would like to say that the speed talk never increase my confidense in the speaking...this is because everyone is talking to each others and there is a two ways communication..so it is not so scary compare to public speaking that everyone is concentrate on your speech..i think presentation in a group can increase our confidense in speaking..This is because there have friends beside you that give a boost to you and your nervous will be less..

    Hai Puan Intan!
    hm, the speed talk exercise. It was a great activity. I must say that i really enjoyed participating in it. I get to talk with all the members of my class, (which i haven't got the chance until your class!) And I must say, some have the the craziest questions ever! Regardless of anything, i enjoyed answering each and every one of them. :)

    Hello,my lecturer Pn. Intan.Firstly,i have to say that speed talk is the most fun lesson that i had learned in ump so far.It is really a good lesson because it can improve my self-confident when i talk English with someone,and this is very important to me.Besides that,this activity also give us the chance to talk to each others especially we can talk to the malay classmate during the activity which is other classes cannot provide.The question i ask was "You prefer to choose to be a girl or a boy" and one of my classmate who is girl answer me that she want to be a boy because she don't want pregnant,haha.Hopefully,the next lesson also will as fun as this lesson.We must learn in fun.

    I had fun during the speed talk.I felt funny with my classmates' answers and also their questions.They are creative.Honestly,in my opinion the speed talk just like a way for us to communicate among my classmates.I don't think that I need confidence to speak out.They will understand me although I use broken english.
    I think public speaking is more challenging.We need high confidence to talk in front the people.I had read an articel from a news paper before.It said most of the people would like to die rather than stand on a stage and give a talk.So,I think speak in public can increase our confidence.

    hye, mdm intan...
    about the speed talk activity, i personally think that, it was great eventhough i never play it before.. the activity indirectly can improve our creativity in creating ridiculous questions..hehe..what i really mean is that, it makes you think out of the box..this activity can increase our confidence level as well..maybe before this we were quite shy to talk to each other especially with different genders in english..but now, it doesn't seem anymore..hehe..
    i have an activity to share with you.. it's called the LAST WORD..i got it from ellen degeneres show..it requires you to have a quite wide range of vocab as well as knowlegde.. i hope that we do have time to play it class one day.. that's all for now..salam..

    Peace upon you my dear Pn. Intan...
    About speed talk that we recently done,i think it is a nice activity to run through. It improves my confidence in having english conversation a lot. Usually, i'm too shy to speak in front of a human which has different gender from mine, especially in english. Through speed talk activity, i'm not only having a conversation with them, but i'm having an english conversation with them. This is definitely a new thing for me though.

    However, i'm looking forward to have an activity which will improve my speech skills. So, in our next class, maybe you should assign the students to give a powerpoint presentation in front of class.Ok Pn. Intan, see you in next class. :)

    What a wonderful time we had at the speed talk recently!!!We got the chance to communicate with the other gender.I must congragulate Pn.Intan for exposing us to that activity.Thank you,our lovely lecturer.
    At first,it is the girls who asked us various questions.Some of them give question that are short and direct while others are long but interesting ones.I reply with a calm and open heart.
    Then it's the guys turn to speak up where I asked what will they take with them when the end of the world takes place?They responded
    that they love their parents with them in these crisis times whilst others prefering their hi-tech gizmos.
    I got the opportunity to boost my confidence and social skills in this activity.This can improve our communication and behaviour in these challenging and hard times.Signing off,bye!!

    HELLO....
    what i'm going to say is the speed talk activity is so fun and marvelous. for me, it is a good way to learn how to make a great public speaking. by making two ways conversation, we learn from the bottom how to make a speech in front of others. besides,this activity build students confident and positive thinking while making conversation either between the same gender or different. if we can communicate in proper way in two ways, hopely we can talk confidently in front the others some days. i suggest that you can varies this activity by dividing students into groups and give tasks that required them to speak in the group. in addition, speed talk makes my relationship with my friends closer.honestly, i've never speak with some of my classmates until this activity done.it's so wonderful than ever if we get to know each other closely and sharing some experiences from the question asked. my question asked is "what makes you touching?". this is a very simple question but some of the student didn't give any answer. i wonder that this question quite hard to be answered by some of them because it needs the truth and honest from the bottom of their heart...hehe... SHUT DOWN N NITE... :)

  22. Good morning madam...my opinion on the speed talk is it most help us to comunicate to other people easily...by the given time,we have to answer our friend's question spontaneously and fast...besudes,it also train us how to control our nervous when talk in english to the others...plus,we also can know our wickness in using english such as grammar and pronounciation for me,i felt a bit more confident to use english...although,it's not fluent but i think i can improve it in future...thank you...

    Asslamualaikum madam intan..
    First of all,I want to say sorry because, I have been late to post the comment almost 1 month.That is because I had some technical problem and a little bit lazy to online hehehhe…sorry again.Ermm..about the speed talk, honestly, from my heart, I really enjoy it, because I could talk to someone who had never been talk to me before the speed talk. Other than that I feel so shy to speak in English . However, I think speed talk can improve my skill communication in English because when do this activity, we had 2 ways communication, so I think, it’s not only improved my communication skill, but we knows each other better.Anyway, I really enjoyed this activity so much.
    Thank you

    The speed talk activity in class do help me to speak it out more confidently.I think via this activity, it may improve our speaking skills and cultivate our courageness to speak it out to others.

    The activity that Pn Intan organized did really encouraged me to speak in class eventhough my speaking is not very fluent. In 30 seconds to think of a answer is not an easy task. But i likes this activity because everyone give funny and weird answers.I hope there will be another activity in future. Thank you.
