    TELLING PASSION or REASON


    In advanced way of introducing self, we can insert our passion and reason of doing or
    choosing such kind of program, hobby, and interest. By sharing it, we can find some friends
    that have same view and orientation. It will help us to widen connection in such community.
    However, we have to know the main point of delivering it. The addressee will get so bored if
    we deliver something that is out of topic. So, here is the basic tips to keep on track:
    1. Provide the essential reason why choosing this program
    2. Strengthen with evidences about the chosen program
    3. Adjust the target that want to be accomplished by joining the program

    So, the important thing if you want to introduce yourself to make good impression in
    the first meeting, please remember to be mindful of the social context. In other words, make
    sure your introduction fits the situation. Plus, be aware of why you're introducing yourself in
    the first place, and what you want others to learn about you.

    Resonate with the audience. Remember: you’re introducing yourself to other human
    beings, so act like a human yourself. Smile and make eye contact. Focus on what’s relevant—
    nobody enjoys pointless rambles. So, don’t say too much, avoid verbosity. Be brief and to-the-
    point.
    Last but not least—prepare. Especially if your self-introduction is part of a larger
    presentation to live audience. And don’t aim for perfection. Just see to it that you've got
    everything right. Right is enough.

    GRAMMAR FOCUS
    Pronouns
    Pronouns are words that take the place of nouns. We often use them to avoid repeating
    the nouns that they refer to. Pronouns have different forms for the different ways we use them.

    1. Pronoun can refer to noun.


    Example:
     My father works hard. He works in a factory.
    The word “He” is a pronoun that subtitute the words “My father” (Noun - man).
     Allison is my sister. She is twelve years old.
    The word “She” is a pronoun that subtitute the word “Allison” (Noun - woman).
