It was the first day of our visit to
SMK La Salle! I was both excited and nervous at first. My group consists of 3
members, Gordon, Jody and myself. We gathered at Taylor’s University and started
our journey to SMK La Salle. We carpooled and discussed on what will we need to
do when we reached the placed. I felt it was a smooth carpooling journey and we
reached SMK La Salle around 12pm.
All of us gathered at SMK La Salle’s hall first for a
short briefing by Mr Chandra and Ms Pauline on what we were supposed to do on
our first visit and things to expect from the SMK La Salle students. Some
questions came into my mind like “Will we be able to attract the attention of the
students to participate in this project?” and “Will there be awkward situations?”
However, when I arrived there, I understood that the situation was the
opposite, the teachers and students there were humble and cooperative.

We were assigned to our respective classes (Group 3) as planned earlier and did a few ice breaker
games such as “Human Knot” and “Bingo”. I felt it was a good
start to show teamwork by working together. We all had a great time. After the
ice breakers, my group settled down and we decided to introduce one another such
as name, where you are from, favourite food and hobby. We got to know the students
and I realised that we got a visible progress on the student’s English proficiency.
We explained the purpose of this project.
Although we had challenges such as 1
or 2 students were still hard to engage, we discussed the draft of the characters
and script for the drama. I was sure it would be a good start and the outcome
was a satisfaction
