"I know that the 3 scenes helped me with my confidence and my ability to talk confidently in public"
Roohi transformed from someone who would go blank in small groups to confidently inspiring 100 students about pursuing medicine—without notes. Using the 3 scenes technique, they delivered a talk that sparked numerous work experience requests and motivated students to follow their path.
I have always been nervous about public speaking as my voice would be shaky and I would go blank even in small group situations. I was asked to give a talk to students to inspire them to study medicine. I was extremely reluctant to do this but I was told it would be to small groups so I agreed. Even that made me nervous . I decided to use the 3 scenes to help prepare myself.
When I arrived to talk to the small groups I found out that I was in fact speaking to a group of 100 students! This would ordinarily have caused me to get extremely anxious and I may even have declined. Surprisingly I felt very calm. I spoke without notes talking about my journey in medicine , becoming a doctor and a GP. I answered all the questions confidently. After my talk many students wanted to come to my practice to do work experience and they gave positive feedback stating that I had inspired them to pursue a career in medicine.
I know that the 3 scenes helped me with my confidence and my ability to talk confidently in public.
