self evaluation persuasive speech

I prepared the speech for about two days, I brainstormed a lot of topic, because there too many things that I want to persuade. Last speech maybe I use too much energy to entertain the audiences, so my speech seems like not very close to the topic. So, this time when I was preparing, I think I should give a speech that has some real information, not just funny, I want to have a deeper meaning. At first, I actually wanted to use the topic: keep trying, don’t give up. But it is too normal and vague. And everyone already knew this opinion for a long time. So, I decided to use the topic: jump out of the comfort zone. Because this topic more appropriate for the audiences, all of my classmates are international students, they both jumped out of their comfort zone. About the organization, I think my speech is organized, I think my introduction is too long, but I have my preview, also I have repeated my opinions in the conclusion. Nut my attention getter is boring and long, I still need to i...

About the listening work in this assignment,  they are  really good  practice for me.  The contents are also useful, such as : how to take notes in class, how to speak so people w ant to listen to you and so on.  These work  can improve my listening skills and the speed of r e acti on,  can help me to communicate with others better. I think the hardest one is the  millennium park project . Firstly, it doesn’t have video,  that’s boring! I don’t want to listen anymore. Secondly, those artists’ name  are  hard to spell, so  when I was thinking how to express to names, the radio was gone... Thirdly,  those artists’ words are hard to recognize.  Also, the project is fun, we had good time during the project. About the T ed Talk, they are interesting and useful, because  these are real speech, they have attention getter,  and the content are vivid. In all these assignments, I like ted tal k  most.  For t...

This project is very interesting I think. When we work as a group, we can talk along the way we visit the neighborhood and can practice English. I remember that Saturday was a really sunny day, the wind was gentle, and we walk along the path, the yellow leaves fell off the trees. It was really amazing and relaxing. I think the challenge to work as group is too hard to get in touch with others. When you want to do the ppt, and want to ask for some information, your group mates may be sleeping, chatting and something like that. This will influence the process about the project. But I think this is not a big deal, we have a good time together I think. About the interview, I was excited when I finally found someone can ask, and she is a nice person, we had a good chat. The difficulty is hard to find a local person who live in old town. Because people live in old town can better describe the neighborhood. I have asked three person and finally I did it. It made me happy. In this project, I l...
