Dear Knowledgeable:
My best friend, Mei, has a problem. There is a really important English spee
ch contest for our whole city next month. Our classmates want her to repres
ent the class in the school contest. Everyone is sure she will win. It’s probabl
y true. Mei is very clever, and can speak English really well. In fact, she alwa
ys comes top in the school exams. The problem is that she’s very shy. She doesn’t want to let friends down, but she’s terrified of speaking in front of othe
r people. She’s my friend, so she can tell me that she’s shy. but she can’t tell
everyone that. I don’t think they would believe her. I can’t think of any good
advice to give her, but you always come up with good solutions to people’s p
roblems. What do you think I should tell Mei? What do you think I should tell
the rest of the students?

she should take part in the contest. It is an opportunity to show herself and learn from others, She is very clever. There is no need for her to be shy. Tell her that the teacher and the whole class will help her prepare for the contest and encourage her to practice in different ways. With the help of the teacher and the classmates, she will succeed. Do remember: try, then you’ll make it.

Subject: Reply From: Knowledgeable Dear Fran, It’s common that someone would feel nervous when they talk in front of many people. Because they are shy. In my opinion, they are unconfident. They are afraid of making mistakes.

So you could tell your friend that she should be confident, and she should believe herself. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Because everyone would make mistakes.
