Hi Group 3!
Today's session was a bit dull, most of you were fretting about your Business Management exams... I was a bit down when I entered the class the first 10 minutes and no sign of enthusiasm from any of you! But as we went along today, dull moments were cheered up a bit, dim lights turned brighter with the presence of a handful of you, namely Johnny, Fiona, Gerald, Lik, Kiet and Tong! I hope you do not take every session of practice we have for granted as every presentation delivery skill we unravel every week is the essence of a required post graduate quality that you will count on when it is time for you to compete with your counterparts in the working industry in the future.
Well, anyway, good job that every group presented today and please take comments positively and constructively!
Fiona's Group
Fiona and Lee Ling did satisfactory job in maintaining eye contact with the audience as well as using appropriate gestures. Li Ai, however was a bit dull.... and did a lot of reading from the note... I noticed she was unwell... take good care of yourself girl and cheer up!
The Couple
They came up with a new topic on video and computer games addiction, WELL DONE!! Tong, whose last week's presentation was robotic, managed to project minimal emotions to his speech! Still Tong had a shy appearance, and did not really put a confident front.
Kiet is lively, audience friendly, bubbly and confident. She however looked at the floor a number of times and turned her back to audience when explaining charts on the white screen.
Jolene's Group
Ting Ting did tremendously well today! Very well-prepared, with brave and confident front!
Jolene used too excessive finger and hand gestures.... control them please....
Nana, who is normally a bubbly presenter, turned out to be giggly today! Also, too much of hand gestures!
Kimberly & Co.
Both Kimberly and Siaw Chin showed tremendous improvements today! They were confident, and familiar with the speech content. Not only that, both managed to maintain good eye contact with audience and audience were well addressed!
Ee Ting, please work more on eliminating the boring element? I know you can do better if you work on a topic that you are really interested in! Look forward to your individual presentation in Week 13-15!
Johnny'sssssssss
1st presenter failed to address the audience, audiences were not engaged with his presentation bit. Gestures were inappropriate as he kept putting his right hand on his neck while reading away the notes!
2nd presenter showed some improvements.... He tried hard not to rely on the notes and maintained minimal eye contact with the audience,
Johnny is of course, a presenter with a brave and confident front... who always keeps good eye contact with the audience and managed to keep the right gestures....
Please work on your pronunciation guys!! :-)
Suk Bing and Partner
GOOD! Head up, did not rely on notes, familiar with the speech content, but eye contact was only focused on me! Both should have taken the front middle position and the presentation could have been more effective! :-)
Gerald and Lik
Interesting topic-a continuation from last week's presentation-WELL DONE GUYS! Both presenters maintained good eye contact with all audiences! Both put confident and brave front! Plus, they managed to engage audience with their captivating topic! The speech ended properly with a proper conclusion! I observe that both Gerald and Lik have been working pretty hard for ECS recently! 2 thumbs up for both! But Gerald, do not scratch your head if it's not itchy! :-)
Thanks FIONA for addressing an interesting issue about the different interpretations of colours of roses that posed as a challenge to both Gerald and Lik! Gerald, with unaltered confidence, impressed everyone with the most reasonable answer. Keep up the good work Gerald!
Happy holiday people and see you in Week 12!

Haha.. Man it sure was fun having the chance to challenge both Gerald and Lik during their presentations. Gerald's brain twisted really fast and came up with his own brilliant ideas. Maybe he received blue rose a couple of times to understand it so well.
Kiet: Haha.. I don't give people flowers.
cst: I think we look quite fierce ey? That's why you don't find any comfort zone around our area :P Don't worry, we won't eat you up.
Cst: Most of you do tend to look at me as a favourite eye contact spot! Hahaha! Next time I must put a long, cold, unfriendly face so that you will switch your eye contact focus to the rest of the audience. Good to receive roses girls!!!!!!!!!! I never get any roses from men, but do get some from close girlfriends... how sad??? :-) Happy holidays people!
Haha!! Someone is hinting, guys!!
cst&fiona: Thanks for constantly contributing... pertaining eye contact strategy, well, looking at pretty girls in the class would be a good idea! Would Fiona be your next eye contact spot? Has anyone seen Gerald? I do not see him leaving comments? Johnny has been quiet as well... where are you Johnny?
hahaha.....i think fiona is a clever girl, can think out such question to ask Gerald. Gerald is also a clever....man?boy? :D , can answer the question. if me, i dun think i can answer it. :)
ha~ha~ thanks so much for ur good comments on me but I think I still need further improvement. From my point of view, I think Gerald's answer is straight to the point and has given us a full and perfect satisfaction. He is really a smart guy! ting ting dun border he called u moxxx lah. hihi...
