Dear colleagues! We would like to inform you of NOVELTA English Language Speech Contest!
1st and 2nd year students are invited to participate
and speak on the topic:
“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours – it is an amazing journey – and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins”
(Bob Moawad)
This Contest is designed to develop students’ communication and delivery skills through participation in public speaking activities, and increase their awareness and understanding of persons’ values and priorities in life. They research, write, and then deliver a speech based upon the suggested topic.
