Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech?
Speaking on stage in Elocution Competitions was my strength during my school days.
There is however a catch in this. I suffered from stammering and it was difficult to speak let alone speak on stage. But I wanted to compete though I knew I wasn’t good enough.
Ms Matty Fernandes my teacher in school came as a blessing and helped me become a fine speaker . She gave me the confidence to speak, taught me how to speak, explained the voice modulations and the perfect pronunciation and more importantly instilled in me the all pervasive self belief which I lacked in abundance.
Winning competitions became a habit for me. I believed I could do it, and I did. That self belief and Ms Matty’s support and training has helped me all my life.
Thank you Ms Matty.
