The club posted its own write-up that week. Some of what it said, in the words it used:
Ask plastic surgery for help but gave up for the expensive fare. Finally listen to her mom’s words to focus on shining points.
I can’t believe she is a mother with 4 babies. She comes from Bermuda,and come to Shenzhen for making money.
Lizhen found his body had a little stuff in a physical examination. He wants to remove it out of his body from 1 to 0.

02 Fabulous Speakers and Evaluators

Speaker: ElevenThe Science Of Storytelling
Use ABDCE to tell a story. Bro 11 deconstructed his ice-break speech to show us how to apply the ABDCE skill into use.
A-action: start with interaction to catch the audience’s attention
B-background: set the scene of your story, and the characters related to the topics
D-development: up & downs about how you work hard to achieve to your desire
C-climax: guide the audience’s emotion to the peak(sometimes too intense to forget to breath)
E-ending: story concludes and share sth meaningful lessons
The Evaluator: Joan
Challenge the ace speaker; ABDEC to evaluate on 11
Structure is important, the same with the way to tell a story.
Expect more meaningful gesture and movement.

03

Speaker: Albert
Embrace the uncertainty and follow the heart
The uncertainty started from his father’s question What do you want to do in the future”
With anxiety and depression but still tries all kinds of things and come to understand: the uncertainty also means all different possibilities
Follow your heart, you will make sure of it.
The best choice in 2020 is to join SZTM and grow up together
The Evaluator: Vivian Liu
Wonderful ice-break speech with fluent English, logical structure and body language
Speaker louder and slowdown your pace would be perfect
The audience want to know more about yourself

04

Speaker: Catherine ZhongSomething about me and my wish
Start with a fairy tale that a girl is afraid to change and meet so many difficulties during her life.
Make up her mind to change. Learn to play piano, cook delicious dishes, join SZTM
Wish to speak English fluently and she is no doubt on the way.
The Evaluator: Stella Chen
Strong connection between Catherine and Stella, more like families
Highly praised with Catherine’s performance, well-structured and logical. natural and calm on the stage.

05

Speaker: Megan LuoEmbrace yourself
Having jokes on herself like a talk show: look like a middle-age women; small eyes without a boyfriend;

07 Brave speakers

1、Min: self-introduction for 2mins. It’s alright we know more about the lovely guest Min. the tip:

2、Wind (From 0 to 1): experienced a lot in 2020, from life to work, from Beijing to SZ, from single to couple. He is glad to come back to SZ and SZTM. In 2021, he wants to build up his own family by getting married and even have a baby.

3、Lizhen(From 1 to 0): Lizhen found his body had a little stuff in a physical examination. He wants to remove it out of his body from 1 to 0. Health is No.1, hoping everyone can be stronger.

4、Max(potential crisis): Although she was confused by the question at beginning, she shared some thoughts. There is potential crisis whether she can go home safely because we don’t know which comes first, tomorrow or accident. So enjoy yourself and enjoy the moment.

5、Ferminka(career plan). I can’t believe she is a mother with 4 babies. She comes from Bermuda,and come to Shenzhen for making money.

6、Joan(study plan). She keeps learning sth new-learn to swim for the 1st year in SZ, then got the PMP certificates in the 2nd, and learn to make coffee by herself. As for the study plan in new year, she is still thinking. If you have some good ideas, you can come to SZTM.

7、Eric(travel to mars) Mars can also be a crowd of naughty students. Just enjoy Eric’s endless imagination and you will believe it!

Super Supporter:Jim Huang
as TTM, it’s better to write down all topics on the board and tell the rule clearly
as speakers :
①time is limited, remember go straight to your topic;
②throw away the paper and control time properly.
③telling story to let the audience remember
④remember to eye contact with audience
⑤When you got a topic, if you don’t know what to say, you can repeat the question or ask question to audience.
