Certainly, these aren’t enough strengths to make a speech the best.

    The strength of my presentation is that it answers two main questions about the subject matter, what it is and who is at risk for this type of injury. It explains what a concussion or TBI exactly does to the brain. The presentation then turns its focus to those at risk, athletes of course, but also others including war veterans affected during combat situations. Another strength is how the visuals are put to use. It combines the pictures and information shown on the graphs to help correlate with the main speaking points for each particular slide.…
