Future Endeavors
From this class I will take a little bit of experience speech writing and talking in front of an audience, and a whole lot of confidence. I cant believe the difference in my confidence level from the beginning of class until now. I really like how we started with topics that were more comfortable to us that allowed us to work on our speaking confience. By the time we got to the informative and persuasive speeches I felt like I could tackle more complex topics. I am a talker and have learned in this class how to organize my speech to make it more effective and have time control. The outlines helped me to develop my speech pattern to deliver the most pertinent information and not get sidetracked, which could confuse my audience and cause me to run out of time. I feel that I am a better speaker, with a lot less ums and fidgeting than when I started, which will help me be successful in my future endeavors.

I too feel that this class has been great for my confidence level. I am a wordy person when I write, and having the time constraints was really challenging for me. Making my speeches more concise to fit the time frame really helped me learn to say a lot in fewer words, which I also think is great. I remember the comments on my first speech had a lot to do with distracting posture, which I had not idea I was doing. By this last speech I felt like I could speak and be aware of what I was doing with my posture at the same time, which to me felt like a huge accomplishment. I think we should all give ourselves a huge pat on the back for completing this course! It will only enhance our careers, personal relationships, and confidence levels.
