Informative Speech

My informative speech was about Habitat for Humanity. Overall, I thought I did well; I used hand gestures and maintained eye contact for the majority of my speech. I could have paid better attention to the people on the edges of the room, but overall, I thought I did well. One thing I could have dont to improve my speech was to have more pictures of the houses that Habitat builds. I only brought in one picture, and my presentation as a whole would have been stronger if I had more visuals. The informative sppech was fun because it allowed me to talk about something I enjoy, Habitat for Humanity.

Brown Bag Speech Journal:

My brown bag speech was decent for the first speech of the semester. I could have had better posture, and shown my items up better. I was hard to understand at some points, studdering over myself and forgetting what I was going to say next. I actually thought I did well with enthusiasm and explaining how I felt about my topics. I was incredibly nervous and my voice was very shaky as well. Overall though, I thought my speech went well, although this is always more to improve on.
