comparing first and last speeches

I thought that I improved throughout all of the speeches. I look up a lot more than I used to except I still occassionally read my note card. I look a lot more confident in my later speech than I did the first one, I don't seem as nervous. My voice is a lot clearer and understandable. My hand gestures also improved along with my enthusiasm. Overall I would say this class has helped my in my public speaking skills very much.

demonstrative speech

My speech was better than ones that I have done before. My voice was clear and loud throughout the whole speech, which is something I have struggled with in the past. I actually sounded confident in what I was talking about this time which helped. In my last speech Iwas not as sure about my information. I was less nervous during this speech which shows that my confidence during dpeeches is improving. I showed a little more enthusiasm and emotion in this speech than i have in previous ones.
One thing I still need to work on is mantaining eye contact throughout the whole speech and looking around at everyone in the class. I need to work on not looking down as much and always keep my eyes up. A little more enthusiasm would be good for my future speeches as well. All in all this speech was alot better than my previous ones, but I still have alot of room for improvement.
