Poetry Recitation Contest

Reciting poetry can help enrich the students’, vocabulary as well as improve their pronunciation in English. It also gives them a taste of public speaking and helps develop their confidence.

​

In this competition, students from 3rd grade to 8th grade have to recite a poem of their choice from a pre-selected list provided by ESU Chile, in front of a panel of judges. These experts in public speaking will evaluate their delivery, focusing on their expression, clarity and interpretation of the poem.

​

Every year, students from all over the country participate in this competition, learning and sharing with others as well as taking the first step towards public speaking.
