Question: What are you going are you going to take from this class that you think will be helpful in future endeavors?
I feel like I’m going to take a great sense of confidence from this class in public speaking. I have to do many speeches for my job at the middle school campus. I need to present myself well to parents, so they are comfortable leaving me in charge of their teenager after school. During my time of being in the class, I can tell that I have gained this confidence because I recently gave a speech in front of many parents of my students at work, and many of them were coming up to me saying I did well and that they saw a large amount of improvement in my public speaking skills. They said I looked for comfortable. I think overall, confidence is the best thing that I had to gain from this class.

Hello Jane:
I enjoyed reading your post regarding the discussion question. I hadn't thought about it in that way. When observing all of our classmates' presentations, I noticed vast improvements across the board. People who were shy and nervous in the beginning were more comfortable during the last speech. The right amount of confidence is a great thing to have when presenting to others. I noticed that no one was over confident and everyone brought their A-game (which consists of proper preparation). I second your claim; I have confidence in my ability to be successful (in terms of public speaking) with the proper amount of practice and preparation. Your presentation was great and I wish you much success in all of your future endeavors.
Hi Jane!
You did really well on your last speech. It really showed that you did your research and that you were really comfortable speaking in front of the class about this topic.Y ou should definitely be proud of yourself. You have definitely improved and done well in all three speeches. I guess the more interest you have in the topic, the easier it is to talk about.
Good luck with your finals! It was great listening to you speak. I'm sure you'll do great speaking in front of the parents where you work at ...
