Hi everyone !
Last week I have been practising for the VC English Debate Cup and I never joined debating before, So what I want to reflect on is the experience that I gained during the 2 weeks of debating.
Personally, I think debate actually improve a lot of my confidence in terms of speaking in public. It also helped me in thinking critically and spontaneously. Before this, talking spontaneously is a no no for me because I tend to get anxious when speaking in public. This always ended up with me mumbling because I speak too fast.
So,the confidence that I developed in debating actually helped me in terms of delivering my speech whereby I finally managed to improve my way of conveying my thoughts into a proper speech and not just speaking without structure.
All this skills actually can help me in the future since becoming a lawyer,we have to
be confidence in our argument in order to defend our client.:)
Furthermore,Mooting is sort of like debating too,whereby it's all about defending a case and point out the flaw in the opponent case so that the verdict is on our side. So, I think debating actually did gave me a good start in FUU.
