Great Presentation in English - Future Midwifes

Just when I thought being involved in English education could not be more fun, i had the opportunity to go to Purwakarta in order to assess the speaking ability of about 100 soon to be midwives. It was such an interesting and amazing experience because on that particular day, I listened to many presentations on various health topics associated with pregnancy. Of course all the presentations were in English. I has such a fantastic time that I decided to take a bunch of photos to document the experience.

Great experience for Ryan!

Great experience for CIACI VIP ENGLISH!

Mojang Jajaka Grand Final 2013

 Once again I was selected and invited to be a judge for the Mojang Jajaka Competition. This is always such a special occasion for me because I truly get an opportunity to discover all of the beauty which West Java has to offer as far an culture is concerned. All of the finalist were so intelligent, polite, and leaders in their communities. This year was very different from last year in that each and every city and district throughout the West Java province sent a male and female representative to the finals. There were 54 finalists altogether, 27 men and 27 women, all dressed up in traditional clothing encompassing their extremely unique individual cultures. 


Due to the fact that I am an English teacher, my area of contribution to the competition was of course English. So many of the finalists could communicate so effectively in English. This definitely impressed me. I hope the Mojang Jajaka competition forever stays a part of West Java's heritage. In addition to judging the competition, I served as one of the mentors and gave a class on how to be confident when speaking English. I also taught them how to express their opinions in English. The class was very lively. I even threw in a game of Simon Says which of course was a lot of fun. 


As a result of all my efforts, I was given an award at the Grand Final for being one of the favorite teachers. That was such a great honor for me. I did not even expect to get that. When I was called to the stage, I had to hold all of my enthusiasm inside and just simply smile. Now, I kind of wish I had jumped up and down with joy. I sure hope I get invited again next year so that I can learn even more about all of the great traditions of the Sundanese culture. The committee mainly comprised of former Mojang Jajaka finalists really did an outstanding job organizing the competition and a variety of events. They really took their jobs and duties quite seriously and all of their efforts sure paid off just fine.

Mojang Jajaka Jawa Barat 2012

I had the opportunity to be one of the judges for the MOKA 2012 competition. I found it quite amazing how rich the Sundanese culture is and how proud the representatives of each city and district within West Java were. When Ms. Ida contacted me and invited me to join this event as a mentor and judge, I was so excited as to be part of such an extraordinary occasion. The only thing was that my name was spelled wrong in the newspapers. Instead of putting Ryan Anthony Abraham, they put Ryan Anton Ambraham. I happened to be the only judge that had his name spelled incorrectly, so you can imagine how I felt upon discovering such a terrible thing. I hope I will have another opportunity to be a judge in the future.
