Task 3

My task 3 was to research different religion from my own.  Although I have my own believes I thought it was good to experiment what others believes in.

I talked to Leo about his set of believes he is amongst my neighbours and kinda  funny even  allowed me to record his voice. Leo  told me that he was catholic but he didn’t practiced anymore and decided to change his born religion to Atheist. It was the first time for me to talk to kiwis about what they believe in.

Doing research about different religion wasn’t that easy, regarding my knowledge and the limit of my language. My first thought was to interview someone who believes in god unfortunately it didn’t happened the way I expected. After all I assumed that I could go and talk to my neighbours. Obviously I made lots of efforts relating  this task .I visited differ links and read articles  finally  seemed I  got the one  I was looking for .

Talking to someone who have differ opinion about the existence of the world and other religion as well, was odd to me. Afterwards I felt it was difficult to get the information because Atheist don’t have religious books and even celebrations .Although it was strange to me at first but this task   inspired me to get to know other religions. Also the guy I talked  to was using lots of word that are new to me  so in that way it was advantage.

 The silly mistakes that I made during my conversation with Leo cracked me up; it makes me wonder how I did it. I was good at pronouncing the plural forms but while on the recording turned up to forget I wonder. Hope this won’t put my task down.

Here is a conversation that i had with Leo, we talked about some of the thing atheist believes in.

This is a brief note about my experience on task 3

To be honest if I had  another chance to do research about religion, I would  definitely feel more confidence than I was before. Also I know how to research and questions to ask. As I mention on my video religions  are one of my favourite subjects feel privilege to do this task. There were  lots of religions that I didn’t have any idea about but now the level of my knowledge about other religions is about 50% were it was 20% before.

 During my video there were a lot of mistake that I made in my English I felt annoying if I  record over and over every time when I make a mistake. But what I think was that you learn things by making mistakes so I know all my mistakes now and even corrected them!!!!!!!!!!!. As I don’t wanna make the same mistake  Obviously I  convince  every task I made that my speaking is improve for example my first task I was so worried about what im gonna say next ....Now i feel quite fluent...................
