Believe in Yourself! Â
Since 5th grade, I have taken part in the language contest “BWF Team” with my friends, never alone. So, when I suddenly decided to participate in a solo contest, I was anxious.
At first, it was challenging because I was so used to having my friends by my side. But soon, I realized that competing on my own could be just as exciting, and it opened up opportunities that the team contest couldn’t offer.
The contest began with a video assignment: “If things could talk…” and research about a specific topic, mine was New England. After submitting my video, all I could do was wait for further instructions. Then, I received an email with the exact date of my exam. I was extremely nervous since I had no idea what to expect and didn’t know any of the other students. Nevertheless, I decided to give it a try. When I arrived, I immediately felt more at ease. Everyone was kind and welcoming, and the exam went really well. Even better, I made new friends and met many students who shared the same interest in languages as I did. In the end, this contest was an amazing experience that helped me improve my English skills, step out of my comfort zone and meet new amazing people.
This experience taught me that you don’t always need your friends beside you to try something new. Sometimes, taking a step on your own is what makes it more meaningful and intriguing.
So, if you’re thinking about taking part in a contest on your own, go for it!
