High School Presentations

In 1-3 sentences, in your opinion, what was the single most important point of this week's readings, and why do you feel that was the most important point?

The informative speech tends to be one of my personal favorites when it comes to publically performing the speech in front of a group of peers. This speech tends to be one of my particular favorites due to the fact that if you are going to be presenting it, you should be the one who knows the most about the topic and should be delivering it in a fashion in which your peers find interesting. Even if the topic itself isn’t a very popular topic you as a presenter should be able to make connections to the audience during this time which makes them very intrigued with your topic and maybe even considering further research in that area

Speaking to an audience of hundreds of people sounds terrifying to me, however, it is this precise reason why I think I would make a great speaker. Throughout my academic career, I have always loathed presenting because I am naturally more reserved and in some cases, I am a shy person. I find myself not taking advantage of speaking in classes because I prefer having my thoughts prepared in advance so that I am clear and able to defend my arguments. I have not had a bad experience presenting yet, and I attribute this to careful preparation. Furthermore, I believe my idea is worth spreading because of its timeliness and potential to impact today’s society. I take pride in all the work I put in leading up to the presentation and the opportunity to have the audience’s attention.

During the speech, I was also a good speaker in many ways. I had a good voice projection, my hand moment was consistent, I was always facing the audience and held eye contact, and had facial expressions to emphasize the importance of a topic. Right off the bat when I was explaining my citation saying According to the U.S Census Bureau “there are alone 5.7% Asian’s in the United States,” I was pointing my hands to make sure everyone was paying attention to the numbers. Another thing I did well during the speech was, that I kept eye contact with everyone during the speech

President Emy Roux called the meeting at 7:00pm by ringing the Key Club Bell. She led us to reciting the American, Texan, and Key Club pledge and finished the introduction with a short prayer for the success of our meeting and social.

Presentations are common at college level. For the past month or so I observed several group presentations about different topics of Shakespeare era. Also, I presented with my group. The presentations were about topics that not many people knew by heart. It required a bunch of research and time in order to come up with a nice pronation

Overall elements of my speech that I enjoyed were my strong facial expressions and my ability to maintain enough eye contact with the audience. Elements I could work on was not showing the audience how nervous I was going up, practice on my body language and not try to move too much when presenting. Work on my pace while I read and try not to stumble across things. To ensure improvement practice ahead of time and make sure it’s constant, not just the night before the speech, but a few days in advance or whatnot.

Now that you are going into 6th grade, I thought I would give you some tips about Middle School. I honestly think that you are going to love Middle School at first you might be thinking this is going to be the worst year of my life, but you're wrong you are going to love it so much that you won’t want to leave.

You can apply the same mantra to impromptu presentations. Sear the basic structure of a presentation into your memory and volunteer to give speeches on the spot. The more you practice giving impromptu presentations, the more comfortable you become doing so. Just as people trained to respond to emergencies at a moment's notice, you will be able to respond with a solid presentation at a moment's notice.

Public speaking is something I’m not afraid or challenged by. Its an easy topic, and it only takes a few things that I have come to know to make a great public speaker. To be successful at public speaking you should make sure your knowing your topic, but it also comes down strong speaking, confidence, and sharing information with your audience that's something they want to hear while keeping it on topic. Public speaking is important to use in any circumstance with a large crowd of people.

This really helped me to find my confidence and taught me how to get rid of the nerves that comes with public speaking. There is always room to improve and through the speech classes I took throughout high school I feel like I improved in my speaking skills. One of my strengths is being good at preparation. Preparation is a very important factor in making a good speech. Knowing your audience, your topic, and knowing how to organize a speech properly is something I find to be a strength. Another strength of mine that I previously stated is knowing how to get through any nerves that I have. My weaknesses of public speaking include my newly developed stutter, talking too fast, and not speaking super clearly. With speeches I am much better at putting the speech together rather than actually giving

Public speaking has always been very hard for me, I've never been the type to stand in front of an audience and speak or do a presentation. No matter how many times I've done presentations I've always get nervous or shy and always forget what I rehearsed. In the military I was training Nco, everytime we had a new marine check in to our unit or are shop. I would be the one to give them and the A presentation on what is expected of them and also give them information about the unit and our shop. In my opinion the Marine Corp prepared me for public speaking, especially if you where lower rank and your senior enlisted would throw you to the wolves and send you up there to give the

(sound alarm) Don't you just love that sound. Ahhh the sound of school calling at 6 in the morning. When you start a new school or a new grade many emotions are most likely running through your head which stress' you out. But when you get to high school it's a whole new beginning and experience. The overall experience of high school is pretty neat if you asked me. The freedom is nice, although there is a lot of stress, the people in the hallway can be disturbing, and you make all new sorts of friends and enemy's.

One of my more vivid experiences of public speaking was when I was taking a class at a community college. While taking this class I would often have to give speeches and demonstrations in front of the class. As I was waiting for my turn to give my very first speech, I was very certain that I would have no problems at all, it would a piece of cake, or so I thought. All of a sudden, I hear my name being called as it was my turn to deliver a knockout performance, but as I stood in front of that small class of people I just blanked out. An overwhelming amount of anxiety came over of me. I could feel my heart beginning to race and my hands starting to sweat. I could not for the life of me remember what I was going supposed say. In addition, the
