DAY 09 - Sports Commentator
Watch a sports game of your choice and listen to the commentary in English. Write down repeated expressions and words that come up frequently during the game. If you can’t understand something, google English vocabulary + your sport for a list of phrases to use.
When you have a full page of notes, watch a second game but this time turn the audio off. Write commentary for 5 minutes of play and make an audio recording so that someone who cannot see the game can still follow along.
Remember to:
1) use your vocabulary
2) imitate the tone of an announcer
3) use your voice to communicate emotions, such as excitement or disappointment
4) upload your video to YouTube when you are done.
Share a link on social media and ask 3 friends if they think you have a future career as a sports announcer.
I bet you do!
