Favorite Speech

My favorite speech that we did for this semester probably had to be the informative speech. The reason that speech was my favorite because I really loved the subject that I picked since it has been a long time hobby of mine. I also learned a lot about the camera's history and mechanics in my research, benefitting not only my audience but myself as well. This was also the speech that I was the most comfortable giving, I knew the material fairly well and was very confident in what I was presenting. I usually am pretty nervous speaking up front, but speaking on something that I really loved helped me overcome that pretty easily. Unfortunately I did have to rush through some of the material because of the time limit, so I hope that everyone was able to understand everything that I was saying. I definitely have improved a lot because of this class, and I know that it will help me in my future.

  1. I said a lot of the same things as you, as I also thought the informative speech was my favorite. I found that it was so much easier to talk about something I love without having to convince anyone of anything. The time limit was a huge challenge, not only with this speech but with all of them. That was one of the most challenging things for me preparing each speech. I was almost always significantly over the time when I would practice the first time. I remember your camera speech and it was really good! That was the other thing I liked about the informative speech, it was my favorite to listen to!
