You kept practicing your speech every day in order to make it better. I know it is important to keep on trying and never to give up. I hope I can be successful like you one day in the future. Yours， Li Hua It’s very important to be confident. Self -confidence can bring us courage to stick to what we do. So it’s valuable to us. When I was in Grade 7, once my teacher asked me to make a speech in class. Although I practiced it for many times at home, I still felt nervous and forgot the words at the beginning of it. Then I breathed deeply and relaxed myself. You can’t believe how happy I was when I recalled the speech and finished it successfully. My teacher thought highly of my performance and I got much encouragement from my classmates. From then on, I have become more and more confident. To build confidence, firstly we need to clearly know about our own advantages and try to develop them. It is the most important that we should put in enough effort to what we do. Then we can finally make it and gain more confidence.
