Persuasive speech exercise

On the 15th of August, our learning facilitator have me write a short persuasive speech about a book that I found interesting to convince others to read it as well. The book that I chose to write about was the crossover written by Kwame Alexander. The excerpt below is my persuasive speech:

Good morning ladies and gentleman, today I’m going to share something that have changed my live. Many of you would say that having a lot of money will change my live, but it is not. Read, read, read and read. You all might wonder why did I said this words so many times, but reading is the main factor that have changed the way I live my today’s live. I have read many books from fiction to non-fiction, business book to cartoon, but the one book that is always stuck in my change and I think that one that really change what I think is the Crossover. Crossover is a very unique book and it written in a poetic way, which make the readers more excited. This book show how basketball change their high school life. The author used basketball lesson as an analogy for live lesson. For instance, you can’t miss any free throw in basketball game because it is the most easy thing to get point and it a free opportunity for you. The example above shows that you can give up on an easy task in live because that easy task is the foundation to complete a more challenging work in the future.

Quote responses

Mahatma Gandhi said “You must be the change that you wish to see in the world.” This quote is very inspirational for me because it is very relatable to the real world and it is actually how every changes should happen. Making changes is a tough thing to do and accept, sometimes it can affect you as an individual either in a developing or challenging way. To create a world that full of happiness people to live in, every single person should look at the issues that are happening in their society or a thing that they do not like about being in this society, then this is the opportunity for you to start making action to solve all of the problems. By doing so, you will be able to live a in world that you wish to live.

What are you waiting for? Tos Tov!!

Did you know that Cambodian taxi drivers experience difficulties finding passengers? And did you know that the passengers have a hard time to finding the right driver at the right time, to go where they need to go?

After a few weeks me, my wonderful teammates and a mentor from French help come up with a solution to solve this problem. That is called Tos Tov, Tos Tov is an app that provides the connection between the driver and the passenger. This means we are giving three main benefits to them: 1 the Cambodian drivers can find more passengers 2- saving passengers’ time of waiting. Once this system works together we will have less traffic and safer roads.

Unlike other alternatives app that already exists. We have come up with two features that will revolutionize the way Cambodian think about the app. The first feature is the innovation by SMS. The second one is the power of the community.

What motivates us to have the commitment to accomplish this is the vision of creating a better Cambodia and a better world with safer roads and more convenient travel options.
