Impromptu Speech

Today I gave an impromptu speech, we all did in class. It was the last activity of the semester. I realized that nervous are transmitted because by the time my classmates were passing to the front, I was watching that they were very nervous, so I got nervous too. I feel that my impromptu speech  had no sense because I had no idea of what to say. I think it is very important to make impromptu speeches, because  we have to be prepared to anything. In our jobs no one is going to give us an script so that we can memorize it.

So, in conclusion I think I've improved a lot in my public speaking skills during the semester. I feel more confortable in front of people, and I've learned to improvise better.

Last Speech

On Monday, November 11th, Adrea and I gave the last speech of this course. We talked about a very common problem, domestic violence. We informed about the main causes and consequences for the wife and childre, and mainly we mentioned physical and emotional effects for them because are the "must know" for everyone.

We were supposed to give the speech on Friday, but I had a time issue. I was told in the morning that I had passed to the finals in a contest where we had to build our own car toy, so I couldn't come to class. At the end the guy in charge didn't let me participate in the finals because I was late, according to him.

Anyway, we did good in our last speech and I believe I have improved since the begining of the course, which was my main goal. I think I can still improve my speaking skills but this course has helped me.
