Public speaker

far outweighed by my excitement to take an advanced public speaking class. I excelled in and enjoyed my public speaking class during my freshman year, so I looked forward to the possible challenges and learning opportunities an advanced class would present. I knew I was an effective public speaker, but I wanted to continue to improve my abilities. After practically finishing this course, I can confidently call myself an advanced public speaker because of three key speaking strengths I possess,…

I consider myself to be a poor public speaker based on my past public speaking experiences. From freezing up when reciting a poem in front of a huge crowd during an assembly to messing up on the Pledge of Allegiance during the Memorial Day ceremony, I have a lot to learn. 
 One thing that I need to keep in mind is to be concerned with information honesty. There were numerous times when I didn 't tell my audience the truth or even dragged on a speech because I didn 't research the topic…

For my self-critique assessment, I chose to critique my 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…

Speech 5 was no doubt the most difficult one. My topic was the importance of voting, in my speech I talked about how my oldest brother was into politics and how growing up he always emphasized the importance of voting to myself and my entire family as well. As my speech progressed I talked about how every vote matters and how, as crazy as it sounds Donald Trump could help draw a new audience to politics. I tried by best to show the audience just how important voting really was by giving them…

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate my knowledge of Advanced Public Speaking. For 11 years I’ve been the National Operations Manager for a global legal firm.

From this experience, I have learned how to write a speech, the…

I performed a speech about why teenage relationships are beneficial on November 1st, 2016 in front of my speech class. Public speaking is something that I had been practicing since I was in the sixth grade, however it is apparent that I continue to struggle with nerves. When my teacher called my name, I realized that I was shaking and trembling pretty badly. I told myself I had practiced beforehand and I knew what I was doing. There are many things I noticed while reviewing my speech, critiquing…

Another key learning moment I had was learning that I should let go and not let the fear of public speaking hold me back. I believe learning that helps improve confidence. The reason for that as the books explains that it is a reason to channel all the nervous energy you have into a great speech. For example, if I compare the informative speech…

human experience that she fails to follow learned protocols--something that incites judgment and discomfort from those around her, as witnessing such a scene disturbs those existing on a subdued emotional plane. In a cafe, or perhaps a diner, the speaker witnesses the strange curiosity of a young woman failing to follow the protocols of ordering…

effective if the speaker knows how to sweep the audience off its feet. The speaker must be passionate about the topic and have the ability to make the audience feel a strong sense of change. A Ted speaker would be the best choice because they are gifted with the ability to connect with the audience. If anyone has ever seen a Ted talk they completely understand the point. If one has yet to see one then it is recommended they see one as soon as possible. Josue Arteaga will be the speaker because…

The Weakness of Death “On Death, Without Exaggeration” by Wislawa Szymborska is an observation of Death by a third party. The speaker is discussing how little power Death has in a life. Many people feel that death is omnipotent and they have no power over this. The speaker is using evidence seen over many years to show the reader that Death is not an all powerful entity. Death is the same awkward truth in life just like it was when the world first began. Szymborska uses persona, personification,…
