My Community Issues Speech discusses the matter of issues in education in the Northern Marianas Islands. My speech focuses specifically on the ineffective classroom management within middle school classrooms, or lack thereof. Since I am an aspiring teacher, I wanted to focus on an important aspect of becoming a teacher while addressing the issues from my experience. I hope you enjoy! |
The demonstration speech was my most favorite speech to do in class. I enjoyed teaching everyone how to create something that is very simple. It is something that can keep everyone's hands busy IF there are coconut trees around. Going off of how well everyone did, I assume I taught it well. It was very fun and I hope everyone thought so too.

Since the beginning of this course I have been much more aware of how often I should rehearse my material. I noticed I became a bit more comfortable and less tense with everyone. I learned to maintain eye contact or at least to look at the audience more than my paper. I learned how to summarize important information but still be able to present it. I'm glad I was able to work through my issues and somewhat reach my goals.

I noticed I still don't seem very confident when presenting information. I also noticed I tend to slur my words, which I am still working on. My tone changes also need a bit of work when I am presenting. In addition to that, my sentence flow also needs to match each other as well as my tone.
