Relaxed Focus: "The 5th Presentation of Chikuzen Area's English Speeches."

This year, like last year, we had a regional English speech presentation. Not a contest, as there was no competition, just an exchange of culture and whatnot. Whereas we had three slots for students last year, this year we only had one. But I spent the last two weeks or so coaching her after school and during lunch time when she was free.

So, on Saturday AM, I and a couple other English teachers headed out to Dazaifu to check out all the speeches.

The view from the cheap seats.

My student, who gave the best recitation of her speech in 3 weeks during crunch-time and under pressure. Fantastic. Here she endures my demand for a picture.
