2. Presentation on May 16th
1. Topic: Best Friend
2. (1) Yuko
For the presenter Yuko, there are 3 definitions of best friends: help each other, unchanging relationship and relationship that they can live together. She said "best friends give her advice if she is in trouble. The question which she asked us at the end of her presentation, "if you lived in a share house, can you do that?", made us think deeply about friends. In fact, she couldn't.
She mentioned her and her father's own experiences and gave a simple presentation in a good way, so I think we audiences understood her ideas about best friend.
(2) Mio
The presenter Mio has some best friends, who are from elementary school and others. The decisive point for her is whether she can be natural or not. She mentioned a male friend of her, and said "not how he feels about me but how I feel about him is an important thing. "
(3) Yuri
The presenter Yuri told us 3 terms for her to be a best friend. The first one is whether he or she understands you and accepts you or not. The second one is whether he or she scolds you when you do wrong things. The third one is whether you can tell him or her any news even if they are bad or good ones.
I entirely agree with what you said. As you said about the third term, it's important whether you can tell both bad and good things to friend.
(4) Taisei
The presenter Taisei talked about distinguishing friends from best ones. At first, he asked us 5 questions and also he told us about them in detail. The first one is "Can you call him or her a best friend of you even if it took long time since you last saw him or her?" The second one is "Can you tell him or her trenchant advice when it is needed?" The third one is "Can stay with him or her in the same room?" The forth one is "Do you mind if he or she cause you troubles?" The last one is "Can you get along with him or her in your each life stage? " Lastly, he told us about one of his friends.
You asked 5 questions at first, so we not only listened to your presentation but also thought about the questions. You made me think that asking some questions to the audience during a presentation would work better than just giving a presentation.
(5) Yoshika
The presenter Yoshika talked about one of her best friends. When she joined an orientation at school with her mother and they couldn't get a handout, a girl came close and kindly gave them the handout. After the orientataion, they thanked the girl for that. After that, the relationship between Yoshika and the female student as best friends has started. There are three definitions of being best friends for her: people who can talk frequently with her, who her family members love and who she can tell anything even if it is a complain about something. She never minds whether a best friend of hers is male or female.
Your concrete content in your presentation made us easily imagine what was going on at that time. In spite the fact that you regretted not giving the audience eye contact last time, you gave us eye contact this time. I bet you're becoming more confident.
3. My presentation
I tried to look at the script as less times as possible but my preparation was not enough. However, I found that speaking faster wouldn't make the audience understand me very well. Now, I will try to give a presentation for the audience to clearly grasp important points.

How we treat or think about people of different gender is sometimes more difficult than that of the same gender. However, you told us your own opinion which was convincing for me.

As you says, you looked at your script at the presentation sometimes, so I want to advise you to remember your ideas. But, you confirmed whether listeners understood your ideas in the presentation. Therefore, I could keep up with what you sai. And you made eye contacts sometimes. If you make your presentation without looking your script, your presentation will be much better！
ReplyDeleteI think that you should use some tools (papers, photos, videos, etc.), and it will be better. But your gestures were so good. Also, You have not to watch your manuscript as you can. (I have to do it, too...)
ReplyDeleteYour explanation about your best friend was very good because there were a lot of imformation. However, I felt there were little imformation to support your one definition, whether they can scold each other when they did bad things. So next time, you should talk about your experience in concrete situation.
ReplyDeleteI think your presentation was great because you could see our eyes and talk appropriate speed and volume. So I could understand your presentation easily.
