what is confidence confidence is a
feeling or self assuring arising from
one appreciation of one’s own abilities
or qualities
are there any problems with girls not
having confidence today yes all the time
around the world
what types of problems are there there
are many types of problems in the world
but one common problem is under
estimating girls
for example people say that girls can’t
play some sports they also are not very
confident in math an article that I saw
said that one little girl thought she
was too stupid to do a math problem but
then she managed to do it but that is an
example of how low self-esteem girls can
be my name is Malia and I’m 11 years old
and today I’m going to be talking to you
about gender stereotypes and confidence
what can we do to help girls confidence
we can help by encouraging girls to take
to be part of a team research shows
girls that are in a team have more
self-esteem you could be in a robotics
team just a team to boost up your
confidence other way to help girls 1
play let her play how she wants let her
pick her own choice to talk let her talk
to you you listen 3 celebrate let her
celebrate her achievements for
resilience let her have her own bad
times 5 say more tell her more than just
you look pretty
why should you care about this topic you
should care about girls confidence
because one study shows than Britain
they can lose three thousand nineteen
hundred nineteen thousand future
businesswomen lawyers and doctors unless
young women get some help to be
confident unless we help and soon if we
do not help this problem will spread all
around the globe would you like to live
without someone to to friend your
battles or what you like to live without
someone to protect you and make sure you
were alive and healthy or would you like
to live without someone to give you a
job to keep your family surviving are
there any gender stereotypes yes a lot
what are some gender stereotypes some
stereotypes are women have to be weak
not like men women are supposed to make
less money than men when they work women
are not allowed to say what they want to
and men are better at math and science
while women are better at nurturing
careers don’t you think that is unfair
to CL to say all these stereotypes when
men and women are the state are equal
can women be greater people of course we
can we can be basketball players lawyers
doctors and much more we are unlimited
we can do anything we can also change
the world
what can girls do to be more confident
girls can be confident and trying
anything like play sports and be
academic or just being you what is helps
me to be more confident
I think what helped me a lot was being
in a basketball team when they receive
the basketball team boosted up my
confidence basketball players has to be
very aggressive but to be aggressive you
have to have self esteem and confidence
and I did it exactly that so it helped
me a lot in school and at home when I
first started in a basketball team I was
really shy in game sight in games I
never shot I only pass to the best
players on the team but as days passed I
started to shoot more often and I
started to go to basketball practice
more I did not fear that I was going to
fail I only cared that I was trying I
just focused on doing my best and soon
enough I started to scoring games I was
so proud of myself although that burns
down his fun not always fun when I went
to my first practice I did not know what
they were saying because I didn’t speak
or understand Spanish so I did
everything wrong but my teammates helped
me and my effort led to my success she
needed a hero so that’s what she became
thank you for listening I hope all the
girls out there listen to
