Speech #3
I think some of my strengths for this speech are that I was prepared and I presented confidently. My first couple of speeches I was very nervous. While I was nervous for this speech as well, I think my nerves turned into confidence as I was speaking. My part of the speech went smoothly and pretty much without error.
My team did an amazing job of presenting this speech. We all dressed up as BG tour guides, and everyone had fun with their section. My teammates definitely helped me do a better job of presenting. They did great with their parts, which helped me be more confident about mine. We all have different personalities, so that contributed to our speech, and added to the humor of it.
The area I still need to work on is using word fillers, especially “ums.” I think I have improved on eye contact and volume of my voice.
The overall experience was very good. I think that I still had all the nerves of the previous speeches, but I think I’m getting better at channeling the nerves into energy for the speech.
