Checkers speech

In the next speech, we see what Hamlet feelings are. He believes that he must hurry up and somehow get retribution on Claudius. Through these two speeches, we are able to see why revenge is such an important theme to the story and what it means towards the characters…

commemorative speech, which was on basketball. Overall, I think that I did a good job on this speech, but there is always room for improvement. First, I think that I had a lot of good aspects to this speech, which include that: I picked a topic that I was passionate about, discussed various life lessons that someone can learn from playing the game of basketball, elaborated on why I feel it should be commemorated, and incorporated some mistakes and rhetorical devices that added value to my…

Practicing in front of a mirror over and over again will also help me memorize my speech more instead of relying on my note card as often, giving me more confidence while speaking. I tend to use my note card as a comforting thing when I get nervous and forget what I am about to say. It gives me the chance to collect my thoughts and remember what I was going to say as well as staying on track of where I was going in my speech. I need to learn how to talk at a slower rate when giving my speeches…

Overall Speech 101 was a great class for me, i was able to improve my ability to speak in front of a class and gain what it takes to be a great speaker. One thing that really helped me was looking back at my speech videos. At first i was really shy and thought that looking at myself speak would be embracing but it really helped me out. After every speech i would look back at my film and see the areas i can improve on. Yes indeed looking at my speech’s really helped me out especially on my final…

I think that I did a decent job on stating why I could talk about the vacation spot of St. Martin. I explained in 0:47 of my speech that I had…

Until taking this speech class, I had no idea how much time and effort great speakers put into their speeches. They must be able to immediately grab their audience’s attention, they must be able to make what they are saying exciting and worth knowing, and they must also deliver their speech in a unique way, so that they can continue to keep the audience’s attention throughout the duration of the speech. Until I sat down and critiqued my speech and realized that even though I thought I was very…

topic, and the audience. The informative speech was one of the harder speeches I had to give since it had to include more research, and more hard facts then the previous speeches. Therefore, it needed more preparation. During preparation part of the informative speech a key learning moment for me was that you can’t procrastinate and do it the night before. That means don’t procrastinate on topic selection, research, or on the crafting of the outline and speech. The book states that “For most…

We all know that in order to do great things in life we need to take big steps and make sacrifices. After reading the autobiography of Malcolm X its admirable that he became such an intellectual man even thought he didn 't finish school and had a difficult time pronouncing words.

His passion and his aspirations in life to fight against racial discrimination in America help him face…

In both of their famous speeches, Henry and JFK show the quality of freedom to push them to fight for…
