Due to the impact of COVID-19, the way ECEC\u2019s recitation competition ran this year was adapted. This year each of the contestants submitted a recording of themselves reciting their chosen pieces. Though this is different to previous years, this certainly did not affect the enthusiasm of the participants who all put in strenuous amounts of preparation anyway!<\/p>\r\n
The judges evaluated their submissions on the following aspects: voice, expression and comprehensive ability.<\/p>\r\n
The specially invited judge Mr Xue commented: \u201cChinese recitation competitions are a platform to showcase the personal style of the contestants. Through language expressions, they can show the charm of the language and experience the fun in the culture. In this recitation contest, the contestants put on a wide range of different acts. The contestants were very well prepared and they put a lot of effort into their backgrounds, costumes and variety of different aspects to ensure they gave a brilliant presentation! The contestants greatly showcased their abilities this year and there were many outstanding works!”<\/p>\r\n
