Self Critique

In my presentation on obesity and the Obesity Society overall I didn’t do as bad as I thought I did. I honestly thought that while I was up there and right before I watched it I would look very stupid and look like I didn’t no what I was doing. Although I didn’t think I did as bad as I thought, there was still some things that I could definitely do better. For starters throughout my entire speech I always caught myself keep looking at the picture instead of looking at the class.

Another thing was that I got so nervous I would keep losing my place and finding it again resorting in saying stuff out of order. This caused my presentation to not flow like the way I wanted it too. Another thing is I touched my face a lot during the speech. I assume this just means I was nervous about people looking at me. Even though that I had some flaws in my speech I guess it wasn’t really that bad. I just need to stay positive in what im saying and il be fine. My plan of attack for my next presentation will to do a lot of what I usually do. But this time I know that I need to just stop worrying about what I say and just be myself. I also need to actually have fun with the presentation instead of just acting like im doing cause I have to. Another thing that I must work on is eye contact. That basically makes up a lot of how people react to your presentation and without that it will appear sorry. If I do these things for my next presentation I believe the outcome will be much greater, in my point of view and on m
