APC SPEAKS at it's finest

Joining organizations is part of living a happy college life. Most especially when that organization means a lot to you and lets you learn at the same time. Organizations are supposedly there to help you to grow and mature. They are your building blocks.

Each organizations have different approaches. Just like the organization i joined. The one named APC SPEAKS. This organization has two clusters. And those are the debate and Public speaking cluster.

When i was being screened for the first time in APC SPEAKS, i was honestly not ready. A friend of mine just referred that organization to me since it's going to help us in our english efficiency big time. Sooo... There.... Why not? I wont lose anything if i try right? The screening was composed of 4 things (if i remember right). The first one was introducing yourself to the judges, second was doing a speech about a certain topic that they will give, the third one would be debating about a certain topic that they too will give and the last one would be the results. The first one was kind of a synch. The second was was ok. The third one was a challenge! I hated debates. So i thought i failed that portion. And the last one was nerve wrecking. They told me to wait for the results to be released next week. So the whole week i was worrying id i passed it or not. When next week came, i was told by a friend that i passed. And so the heavy burden that was in my chest was instantly dropped.

When training in APC SPEAKS started, they made us do speeches and fun activities. They also balanced the seriousness of the atmosphere in the org. Ice breaker games were used to make us feel relaxed and activities would be given later. But when real activities were given, that's when everyone goes on serious mode. They make good speeches with everything they have. And when we recite in front, there will be flaws but there will also be good quirks, good remarks and bad remarks. They made us know our mistakes and sought out to correct them. I actually find their method bold and fun. Like there is no need to hold back. Just say it if you found a fault or something in the speech that i made. That way, i can change and make it better.

APC SPEAKS is a fun org to be in. So if you want to be better in debates or speaking to a crowd, then APC SPEAKS is the org for you.
