Second Partial individual Speech.

This week we had our individual speech which was very important since it consisted of 20% of our partial grade. We were given one hundred topic to choose from. After a while of looking for one, I decided to talk about the topic " Should fast food include a warning label and a extra tax fee?". The speech had to be five minutes long and the essay eight hundred words long. It took me a while in finishing my essay, and once I did I started to review it for my speech. Saying the whole essay I lasted approximatly six minutes which was ok. Overall I did a good job and received a very good grade from my professor. I think I am getting better each day in speaking in front of a public thanks to this class.

Second Partial Exam

A few days ago we had our second partial exam por public speaking  and academic writing class. That day when I presented the exam I was kind of tired, sonce one class before the exam I had just had my Math ezam. Thanks to this, I was tired and kind of stressed because it was kind of dificult; however, I felt good during the exam becuase I was able of answering almost everything. Later on I discovered I actually did good on the exam since I had a grade above 90. I was very glad thanks to my grade and I am looking forward in improving even more in order to help increase my efectiveness in this class.

Class Debate

Last week we had our debates at class, in which everyone had to present the topic that they chose by teams. The topic we chose was "Should death penalty be legalized?". The team consisted of one person agaist, the other in favor, and one moderator that presented the topic. I was against the legalization of death penalty, so I presented my arguments to the teacher and class in order to try to convince them. At the end everything turned out great. We were able to give a good debate to the class and received a good grade by our teacher.
