Hello, everyone. I’m Li Hua from Class Three, Grade Nine. I’ve changed a lot since I joined the dance club.

I used to be very shy. I didn’t dare to speak in public because I was always afraid of making mistakes. Things began to change when I joined the cheer-leading team. After many performances, I gradually built up my confidence. I dare to dance and express myself in front of others. I may make mistakes sometimes, but I have been able to accept them and learn from them. Since joining the team, I have got a better understanding of the saying “No pains n gains.” So I work harder than before. And I practice as much as I can to improve my dancing skills every day. What’s more, I’ve also learned how to trust and work with others.

In a word, I have become better and better.
