Review

I experienced lots of cultural differences in terms of presentation and performance. In event design class, we were divided into groups and created an event. The project was supposed to end with group presentation. We started off quite slow and had discussions but it was so rough. When we were preparing for the presentation, my team members were not trying to decide what to say. On that day we were not nervous at all and someone roughly spoke and presentation finished.
In performance class, again we started off quite slow as a group. We could finally finish the final script and try to start running through 3 days before the performance day. But one of us did not come so long and the person came one hour before the starting time of out performance! Also right before the performance, we rehearsed couple of times but members except for me were sometimes checking the script. I felt I'm more perfectionist than others in this country. I felt like "yeah whatever, follow what happens..."

In the end, both of the experiences strengthened my mentality and ad-lib skill. It was also a good opportunity to compare me with other people!

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
