am afraid to speak and…I am afraid to be corrected because as a normal person or a
normal human being, we commits mistakes nobody is perfect. So in speaking in
English, we’ll, we all know that English is not our…ahmm... main language or national
language so we are comfort…comfortable to speak in our vernaculal…vernaculiar
language so… others… or other students can express there… their selves through
speaking in vernacular… vernaculie… bisaya, Ilonggo, and… many more than we did.

we are afraid to speak before a class because of the fears that may be a hindrance to
us speaking in a class. So (1C) recall a particular memory wherein you are called to
