RESPOND TO 1 CLASSMATE

This presentation has caused me a lot of stress to be honest with you. I have not completed it yet, but the preparation itself is very anxiety-inducing. In a previous course, I had to record in front of someone so I am trying to tell myself I have done this before to calm my nerves. Not to mention, I have done so many persuasive speeches so I am use to trying to persuade the audience. The part that I am most anxious about is the fact that it is 14 minutes because that leaves room for a lot of errors, mistakes and stuttering. Sometimes I go blank when I am presenting and I am really hoping that doesn't happen with this presentation. In order to do my best, I know I need to have a positive mindset and trust in the skills I have learned throughout this course. My speaking has gotten better with the things I have learned and I now need to apply them to this presentation. I enjoyed this semester with you all, Happy Holidays!
