My visual aid was the strongest part about my speech. I brought in the ingredients to make Tiramisu to show which brands I like to use for the recipe. I also prepared Tiramisu for the class as my hold interest technique. To relate the topic to the audience, I told them that they could make this recipe when they want to impress someone. My credibility was also convincing as I informed the class I had researched and compiled the best recipe. My introduction in general was concise and convinced the audience pay attention to the rest of my speech. I also thought my tone was conversational and not too formal.

Let me start by saying I was nervous, which in itself caught me by surprise. I consider myself a fairly confident person; I’ve always experienced butterflies prior to any public presentation but this was more than that. The nervousness led to other issues such as the vocal characteristics of my presentation. For instance, I stumbled on my words during the introduction, tongue-tied as it were. I saw the words in front of me but couldn’t seem to verbalize them. I stopped, re-grouped and moved forward. I continued with a number of vocalized pauses which prove not only

I ensured whilst I made my presentation that I spoke clearly and steadily. I have a tendency to talk quickly so I paid particular attention to controlling the speed of my voice. I also ensured I maintained eye contact with my audience and tried not to focus just on one individual.

Well, the speech was really fun to prepare for it, even though the grade is not what I expected. It pretty awesome too when giving the speech because I can see the audiences inner desire. And their laugh and some smile, it shows it all. I got their attention when I first open up the slide because that was the moment when our generation mostly looking for. And that was love, but that not what they expected. I was laughing inside because of that. While giving the speech, I notice I made too many mistakes and know what my weakness, strength is. I can see my strength in organizing my speech with the step of Monroe’s Motivated Sequence because of that my speech went a lot smoother. In addition to that, I was able to get my points across the audience. The thesis of my topic was easily understood by the audience because my earlier slide about finding love caught their attention. That was brilliant, but I can see that my transition is not smooth on every slide. And that is my weakness I have to work on. It's still not as bad as my communication because I know that I’m quadruple-lingual. That make it really hard for me to speaking

In this speech, i spoke about a topic that i was apathetic towards though, surprisingly i still came across very extemporaneous and passionate. This is because my strong suits are my speaking tone and/or style and my non-verbal communication skills. I excelled in eye contact and being comfortable in front of the audience. I would like to say this may be a false sense of accomplishment though, since I've been with this class an entire semester, I've naturally grown comfortable around them. This would allow anyone, including myself, to be more confident and at home while speaking.

I think that my delivery of my persuasive speech was the best I have done all semester. I feel as if I made eye contact and keep eye contact with the audience for majority of the speech. I only used my notecards to keep me on track with the PowerPoint and I used differing facial expressions, for example when I was talking about the puppy mills I did not smile and was very serious about the concern of the puppies. I believe that my voice varied throughout my speech to bring emphasis to certain topics that I covered. I feel as if I did not gesture much during my speech, but when I did I gestured toward example

I think what I need to improve on is when in fear, try to calm myself down or else I will forget everything I have practice. When speaking, I should work on my articulation and tone. My tone of voice did not have a lot of emotion into it. I seem to have been a little monotone with the way I presented the speech. I had a little rise and fall, but I should work on raising my voice for important points and bring back down to facts and evidence that back up my points.

I began the speech that I had rehearsed a thousand times into my mirror. I watched as the students hung on my every word. Their expressions changed just as my parents had when I practiced my speech for them earlier. I could tell that I was inspiring and engaging each person in the

Just like my speech about GMOs, I was using a keynote speech. In spite of my previous state of nervousness, I was more confident. My group’s previous comments helped me to be assertive. Again, I noticed I kept saying words that I never used such as “like” but it did not bother me this time. I focused on having fun and did my best.

Based on what I saw, and what I heard outside of class, my peers thought I had a well put together speech that brought up surprising statistics. I noticed that all the students looked at me for the duration of my entire speech, which I thought was a good

One strength that I presented throughout the presentation was engagement with the clients. I asked the clients how they would adapt the activity, bingo, for certain conditions such as low vision, hearing loss, and decrease fine motor control. Several of the clients came up with very good ideas for adaptations for the given disabilities. I compared their ideas with my own personal adaptions for this activity. This help to increase their awareness on even more adaptions for the given deficits. This engagement allowed me to be able to build a therapeutic relationship with my clients. With personal strengths I presented throughout the presentation, I also had some weaknesses presented as well. One personal weakness I felt that I presented throughout the presentation, was a decreased in confidence when presenting in front of the class. I found myself getting way too nervous when presenting on the material. I believe that one way to overcome my nerves when presenting information is to practice before hand. I can utilize this strategy of pre-planning, as I develop as an Occupational Therapist, because I will need to have confidence when administering assessments to clients. Pre-planning will allow me to have an increase in confidence and a decrease in nerves. With a greater confidence

My speech had a clear specific purpose, which I accomplished in the time given. It was well organized in the formal and keyword outline, as well as the speech that was given. There was clear distinction between my introduction, my body paragraphs, and my conclusion; and, I think the points transitioned together smoothly. I think for the speech it was difficult to know how much research I should actually do. If this speech was for students in any of the psychology course, then I would have conducted

When looking yourself speaking, it can be a scary thing to witness. A sense of embarrassment or pride will billow up inside. When analyzing my speech from the recording, I looked at my organizational strengths, vocal delivery, and nonverbal communication.
