I am in favor of English-speaking contests in schools. Such contests encourage students to practice speaking 
English in their classes and help them improve their speaking skills. Besides, while preparing themselves for the 
contests, students have a chance to review their lessons thoroughly. Contests among classes provide students 
with opportunities to work with team spirit, thus enabling them to learn how to cooperate with other people. Some 
students may think that their preparations for the speaking contests are time-consuming. However, in my opinion, 
such preparations are worth spending time on. My classmates and I have found that we speak English better after 
each- contest. In sum, English-speaking contests in schools are useful to students.
