Listener Review #3 After watching my videotape several times, I am not satisfied of my performance. It wasn’t good as I expected. I feel I was still too nervous and not confident to have a speech in front of people. I remember when I was speaking, my whole body was still shaking a lot. I couldn’t control and stop myself. When I was nervous I did stuffs that I am not used to do it. I didn’t know why I did that. For example, the jacket is the evident showed that I was too nervous. I should take it…

For my entire life, I have been scared to speak. I was diagnosed with selective mutism when I was two years old. This disorder has made it difficult for me to communicate with anybody that I am not close to. For myself, this meant that talking to or even in the presence of my teachers was out of the question. I would refuse to speak in class and, as a result, many of my classmates thought I was weird and did not talk to me. I was not bothered by that fact. I had my select few friends that I was…

The informative speech was easier for me because it was researching on a simple country singer. This speech I last did was my informative speech and I felt much more prepare with this speech because I have everything done on time, I had my outline ready, notecards ready and to be able to read, my power point was good and I felt a little more confident. In class when we picked times when we were going to, Mr. Stauffer took volunteers to go first and so after that we drew out of the bucker, and I…

I gave my heritage speech on my dad who is my biggest role model on Wednesday, February 7th, 2018. The purpose of this speech was to talk about someone important to me and share their personality, adventures, and lessons learned from them. Before the speech I felt very nervous and shaky. I felt like I didn’t know what I was going to say even though I had practiced it over and over. I believe I followed my outline in terms of structure and planning. I got to say a little bit about everything I…

It is said that the number one fear in life is public speaking, while fear of death finishes second. As famous comedian Jerry Seinfeld once mentioned, this means that at a funeral, people would rather be in the coffin than give the eulogy! The fear of public speaking, one of the most common phobias across the globe, is a form of performance anxiety in which a person becomes consciously aware and apprehensive of his or her performance in front of an audience. From sweaty palms and bundles of…

Michael Olivas as a close personal friend, was the guest speaker of the program, Dr. Sylvia Hurtado. She was the main speaker in the program causing her speech to run longer than the other people speaking. She introduced herself and went directly to the key points she was going to be discussing in her PowerPoint presentation, utilizing statistics to get the attention of the gentlemen that were part of the audience since they filled about two-thirds…

A. The type of speech you intend to deliver (remember there are three basic types of speeches) Out of the tree types of speeches, I believe delivering an informative speech would work best with the audience, topic, and occasion. I’m being asked to write about Beata Beatrix, a painting created by Dante Rossetti, based on Dante Alighieri’s novel Vita Nuova. I want to begin the speech by giving the background of Beatrice, the subject of the painting, to the audience. Then, I plan to inform how…

The Speech I knew I would need to start writing my speech at some point, but there were much better things to be doing than homework. The speech had to be about the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Washington, D.C. I had terrible writer's block. The topic and instructions given by my English teacher were vague. I was sure I would never get the speech done. The Washington D.C. trip was a big deal in the eighth grade. Everyone was so excited to be able to take a trip so far away. Before we could go…
