I have to begin starting off saying when I made my schedule for the semester and realized I had to take English 222 Effective Speech course I was very hesitant, public speaking was not something I wasn't too keen on doing I will admit. My degree calls for this course so I course my professor and off I went very skeptical that I would do well, get much from this class or even enjoy any of it.

This class has helped my public speaking skills in many ways. My greatest improvement overall is that I am now confident in my public speaking abilities and yes there will always be a little nervousness but no anxiety. I have become a more confident speaker compared to what I was before I took this class.
