Tongxin-Post 9. Micro: Shy…Every Two Weeks

I had my Micro- Course last winter. I am so “shyness-ridden” in this class, because it required us to video-record our performances and analyse what we said in sessions word by word. Watching my own in the video was scary enough, not to mention watching them over and over again and analysing them!!!
Every two weeks we had a mock session with our assigned peer-client. Thus every two weeks, I had to analyse myself in the video. THAT WAS EMBARRASSING!!!  
I reminded myself that it was a learning process and the more embarrassing I felt, the more I am aware of my performance, so that I can do a better job the next time.

Right now, I am less afraid of being video-recorded…. But I still prefer audio-recorded. See, I am trying to conquer my shyness.
