Have you ever watched the video above? If not yet, please watch and follow what is told and how she tells you. First, I would like to inform you that the video is taken from Youtube, POPOT dan Nyanyak. it is about two little girls, Ananda Nayla and Aqila Azalea, my daughters. Both little children who were born and live in Banda Aceh. Ananda Nayla was born on Januray 11, 2009 and Aqia was born on November 15,2011. Born in an Acehnese family with their mother;s tongue is Acehnese and Indonesian, but both children speak English and Indonesian. So, English is as their communication at home. They like acting and therefor, they have an account in youtube, called POPOT dan Nyanyak which consists of more than 150 videos. As you see that In the video above, Ananda Nayla is telling a story. Do you know what story she is telling? I believe that some of you know it. Just find the answer.
As the young girls who live in the digital era that we usual call the Z generation. Both Nayla and Aqila inspired to be famous. So,they like to perform something interesting. One of them is performing the story telling. She is still 9 years old and studying at Elementary school, class three. She wants to be famous, but it seems that she is still very young. She keeps practicing. She understands that practice makes perfect. Therefore, she is not shy practicing in front of many people in the coffee shop.
Actually, most people say that English is difficult, but it seems that it is not difficult for Nayla and Aqila. Nayla and Aqila have the reasons why it is not so difficult, because both children here communicate in English every day. For Nayla and Aqila, even they never study English at schools in Aceh, because they are very young. However, so, they learn English at home, but they practice and practice at home by watching English channel.
Telling story or story telling is an activity they most practice. It is very important for building their ability to practice English. Now lets watch them and get what the benefits of practicing story telling. At least it makes her speak English fluently and she has a strong self confident.
