Blog Post #5

Looking back on my speech, I notice that some of the things I could have improved on was while I was talking I could of done a better job of speaking in a more enthusiastic tone of voice rather than monotone. I said um more than once and I also failed to move around the room while I was talking. I also could have had a more interesting PowerPoint presentation that could have kept the room more interested. The things I think I did well was I spoke with my hands rather than nervously put them in my pockets or something like that. I also think I did a good job of speaking directly to the class rather than looking down or at one person, I made sure to speak to everyone. I believe that I could have been more prepared, standing in front of everyone caused me to forget a lot of my material out of nervousness and that could have been prevented with note cards which I left in my dorm. There was definitely  room for improvement but I believe that I covered the basics of what the speech's requirements were to cover.
