4th “Talk like TED” Speech Contest

On 16th March, our school held the 4th “Talk Like TED” speech contest. This year, we have broken a record again! 70 candidates joined the audition! Out of these 70 candidates, 18 of them were successfully admitted to the final round. Through the contest, we want to spread ideas and engage with each other. We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives, and ultimately, the world.  One of the greatest benefits of sharing our ideas with others is that it allows us to learn from each other. Through open communication, we can hear different perspectives, engage in healthy debates, and gain valuable insights that we may not have otherwise considered. Together, we can create a dynamic and vibrant atmosphere that will enrich our education and our lives.

This year, we have invited three professional and honourable judges in different disciplines:

1. Ms Evian Ho (Director of International Training and Testing Center of the City University of Macau)
2. Ms Sandy Leong (Executive Vice President of the Macao Speech Professionals Association)
3. Ms Angela Chong (a member of the School Management Board of St. Teresa School and PGDE teaching practice supervisor of the University of St. Joseph)

Students who have got a mark of 86 or above will be awarded the Distinction Prize. For others, they will get a Merit Prize.
