Figure of speech

giving a speech I feel like I can only make eye contact with the person that is grading me and just glance at the audience here and there. Just giving our first speech with the Chinese fortune cookie, I was nervous right when I stepped up and right away I felt my face go red and the room get hot. I think it’s because I feel like I am going to embarrass myself or even mess up and I don’t want to do that because then I might get made fun of or not get a good grade.…

Final Speech Evaluation My experience in the the class was a lot better than I had expected. I really had big fear talking in front of people. First of all, even though I live in the U.S. For 18 years, I couldn 't be comfortable speaking in front of people in English, is my second language. Second, I am just scared of being center of attention. But the class setting was doing big favor to me. It was small class so I didn 't have to speech to 50 people. And the teacher, Mr. Sebern and…

gentleman-like ways, but ultimately seems to fail. He continues to tell Emma how beautiful she is and how he is unable to focus his attention anywhere but on her. Emma, although she could not deny that Ryan was an extremely good looking man, she figures…

going to the College advisor and trying to figure out what class I would be taking for the fall semester of 2016. I was a little late in the enrollment process and some of the classes I wanted to take were either not available or completely filled. So my advisor asked me if I would be interested in taking speech class. I thought to myself “I don’t really like talking in front of people but it is a requirement.” So I signed up for Introduction to Speech Communication (10116) and that is where…

I had a really fun experience preparing for and constructing my Informative speech. The format of the speech is great because it lets the students select a topic that they are interested in and allows them to talk about a topic they are passionate about. I choose the topic of Landsmeer Golf Club because it was interesting for me to gain even more knowledge on a topic that I was familiar with. When preparing for my speech, I started off making a rough draft outline, and also making a bibliography…

did an excellent job with the overall speech on the different parts of the guitar. My rate was just right, I had vocal variety in all the right places to emphasize on certain aspects, and used my guitar as a visual aid effectively. I also improved my page turning and smiling which I lacked on in my first speech. However, not everything was perfect. I had two grammatical errors towards the end of my speech and possibly some bias. Compared to my first speech, I was not nearly as nervous. Any…

the distance, while my little brother and sister shined to be spontaneous like always. To me, public speaking has always been one of my biggest weaknesses in school. Because of this I would not describe myself as shy, rather anxious to preform a speech. This year one of my main goals is to make my weakness one of my strengths. Public speaking is something that I will not be able to not hide from throughout my everyday life and career as a Psychologist. By attending class and getting as involved…

course Speech 301 during spring semester of 2017, I have learned that before any speech is presented it first needs to go through a process of constructing it, which takes time and effort. But that’s not all, it takes research, creativity, and practice to prepare and deliver a good speech. You need to get the audience attention before even telling then what your speech is about. After you start delivering the speech it is also important to keep the audiences attention throughout the whole speech…

aspects of them in depth. This would differ from my original essay, which focused on the analysis of one specific scene and and relied on the use of footnotes to explain. Ngozi Ukazu’s webcomic, Check, Please!, follows Eric “Bitty” Bittle, a former figure skater turned hockey player navigating his way through college…
