    At first, I was a little scared taking this class since I have a stage fright and don’t have much experience talking in public. After my first speeches I started to get used to it. So in a way this class helped me overcome my fear of talking in public and I have become a little less nervous about it. This class helped me to start noticing the way I talk, move and sound during my presentations. This knowledge helped me improve myself for my later speeches. So when the turn for an Op Ed speech came I was surprisingly prepared for it and could use all my knowledge and experience in this class. This class also showed me a way how to find relative sources for the content of my speech.…

    Brilliant Public Speaking was a very informational video. I enjoyed hearing from each and every person in the video. Each person brought something new to the table and gave their view of public speaking. The one thing that stood out of my mind the most is how each and every one of them said to make the speech personal. One person said that facts are true, but stories sell. In other words make the speech something they want to hear. Don’t bore them by constantly repeating the same thing and staying the same tone. This video tied in well with this week’s topic because it shows how effectively to communicate when giving a speech in the workplace.…
