Final Revision

Throughout the second semester, Public Speaking has really helped me develop my writing skills in was I thought unimaginable. Now, whenever I see someone deliver a speech, I am focused on everything that we covered in the class, such as the speaker's posture, dictation, and enunciation; this change in my mind truly shows me how much this class has done for me. I am now much more well spoken, making sure to pronounce my words and pace my sentences, helping me to make a better speaker and presenter. The debates we did in class really helped my argument skills, as well as realizing the power that the implementation of logos, pathos, and ethos in my script, as well as speeches. In the first class, I was very nervous and doubtful of how the class would go, however now I can look back and say that this made me a better student and a class I don't regret taking with confidence. Although sometimes the class was not very active, I think we all made major improvements in the long run, as everyone's speeches and speaking has improved since our first assignment. When I signed up for the class, I honestly thought it was going to be easygoing, however I quickly found out that I was wrong. As I spent more time in class, I realized that this class was a challenge, so I began to dedicate myself to it; something which has clearly paid off in the end. This was one of my most enjoyable classes of the year, and for that I thank you Ms. Guarino.
