Hello there, this is my first post on this forum and I thank you in advance for looking and helping!
I have been taking beginner Japanese at my university since last September, and there is a Japanese Speech Contest coming up that I wish to participate in. Anyone know of a interesting topic that a beginner could do for the speech? If it is any help, my Japanese class uses the Nakama 1 textbook and we have covered the first 10 chapters.
So far my ideas include: talk about my family (私の家族), my university days (大学の時), etc. None of these seem very interesting but my limited vocabulary/skills with Japanese does not get me very far with more complicated topics/ideas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Edit: I have made up my mind on "My Family" Here is a copy of my speech:

If anyone could have a listen and let me know how it is that would be great! Keep in mind this is for beginner level.
