Presentation about an online dictionary
As we didn´t have a lot of time to practice the presentation, everybody
had to talk really spontaneously and due to that some grammatical and
pronunciation mistakes happened. In my group, everybody presented a specific
part of what the online dictionary offers. When it was my turn, I got quite
nervous and just started to talk, without thinking about my grammar or
pronunciation anymore. I suppose everybody feels the same about hearing himself
talking in a video, so I already knew that I am going to hate my part. When we
were done we watched the video and I was really pleased with our work. It is
really not easy to judge yourself. I can say, that my pronunciation seems okay
to me, but I really have to work on the grammatical mistakes I tend to make
when I am talking, because there is not enough time to think about each
sentence. So I have to automate my spoken English, so that it is no longer
necessary to think about the grammar and so on during the talk.
Generally I think it was a nice idea to make a video of us while we are
talking, because this is the only way to notice what it really sounds like when
you are talking in English and to improve something, you have to be aware of
your own mistakes.
