Among them, the team representing the University of the Pacific Ocean (UPO) made its mark by winning a Consolation Prize, demonstrating the confidence and continuous efforts of UPO students.
Competing in the student category, the UPO team took part in several rounds that challenged contestants to demonstrate flexible English communication skills, critical thinking, and public speaking abilities. With thorough preparation and a confident competitive spirit, the team members showcased their language proficiency as well as their proactive approach to handling different situations.
Despite facing strong teams from across the province, UPO students remained composed and performed consistently throughout the competition, leaving a positive impression with their dynamism and confidence.
English Speakathon is more than a language competition. It also provides an environment for students to develop soft skills, strengthen their critical thinking, and build confidence in international communication. Through this platform, students have opportunities to interact, learn from one another, and continuously improve themselves to meet the demands of an increasingly global environment.
The result at English Speakathon 2026 reflects the learning efforts and growth mindset of UPO students, while also highlighting the University’s educational approach, which emphasizes practical learning, foreign language development, and international integration.
