Reflection_Level-II_1014

Communication classes-II is coming to an end and I wondered why Sanjay has not shown any movie? I was astonished when he asked to write at least 4 or 5 thoughts on the word “Legend” and jot down points if there may not be anything in the world. This was an indication about something is going to happen in the today’s session. My curiosity came to an end, when he started session with the movie “I am the legend”. It was a wonderful movie containing several learning aspects. Language was pretty understandable (leaving few sentences/words). Sometimes back I’d seen movie “The Happenings” in Fun Republic. More or less this movie resembles the same. End is altogether different - totally different than expected. In Hindi movies, hero always services, here it was not so. However his research was survived for a long. It became immortal.

Next part of the session started with pronunciation exercise. I realized that it’s easy to speak words in general but rather difficult to speak in front of an audience because they can easily catch mistakes in pronunciation. This was purely based on sound practice we did in the past. Putting more stress on word, may make language artificial. Suppressing it may indicate lack of confidence and probably lose the purpose.
