My prep went pretty well, but I lost track of where I was and the conclusion sort of fell apart. Though I couldn't tell while speaking, this probably meant that I started to speak very fast. My introduction went pretty well, I thought. I did forget a Beatles lyric for a conclusion, though.

I didn't take advantage of the 2 minutes I was given to prepare for the Impromtu speech, because i figured it wouldnt make much of a difference to review none, or review for 2 minutes anyways. It seemed like it wouldnt be that different regardless of my choice. But I was wrong. My speech wasn't very long and I think that was the only major flaw. Because I didnt plan my speech i think thats the reason I didnt succeed on this speech too well.

I don't mind just getting up and talking about something on the spot.....as long as its something I care about or am knowledgable on. I wasn't able to find a connection between me and any of the three topic I chose so that made my speech a little more difficult to give. During my preperation time I didn't write anything down when I should have outlined some main points. Since I didn't have anything written down I talked a lot faster than usual and for some reason my eye contact was worse even though I had nothing to look down at. This speech really showed my how much work I need on some of those fundamental basic parts of giving a good specch. I didn't have any awkward pauses but I did repeat and was unsure of myself. I would honestly like to do another speech like this to see if I can improve.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8766181031976447003.post-26335038792775277672013-10-01T05:23:40.067-07:002013-10-01T05:23:40.067-07:00Grace, you did a great job on your speech.
