Sabria's Story

My passion is public speaking.

I started public speaking when my grandfather got sick because he always told me that I have a way with my words. I never really knew what he meant by it, but I finally figured it out. I used to be scared of speaking in front of new people, but I had to overcome that fear when my grandfather passed away.

Attending Mock Trial Experience has been my dream since the 6th grade. This program will help me develop more skills and help me grow in other areas that I might not even know that I like. I believe that this program could help me find myself.

A Note from Mrs. White, Sabria's Teacher

"Since Sabria joined mock trial, shehas been a huge asset to her team. She will benefit by improving her writing skills as well as her public speaking skills skills at Mock Trial Experience. In addition, she will be exposed to a new environment, where I truly believe she will thrive. This exposure to a college environment will benefit her greatly."

Mock Trial Experience

During Mock Trial Experience I learned how to write theory. I also learned how to give an opening and closing statement. I also learned how to develop cross examining questions as well as direct questions. I also learned how to object and be a witness. I also witnessed a hiring at the Federal court- house. I met a lot of new people from all around the world. I had four roommates including myself. My roommates were from London, Alameda, and so much more. I met girls in my program from Ghana, Rwanda, Maryland, and so many other places. Everyone had there own unique personalty and we all had fun. We took a trip to Santa Cruz, and I thought it was amazing. On the last day of the trip, we had to do a presentation in front of our parents and loved ones about what we learned. I was so nervous, but when I stood up there in front of everyone I knew that my teachers taught me well. I went up there and it turned out to be really amazing. This trip was fun and educational all at the same time. The campus was beautiful and huge, hot but cool at the same time.
