Project 8: Presentation

I consider it a project. It also means we had 4 projects each semester.

My presenting and speaking to an audience skills is definitely something I know I have needed to practice for a while now and I was very anxious leading into it. Luckily I was able to pick up a few tips about how to go about this including actually practicing to a live audience at the place where the presentation was to be held. I also think by going over the information I had to talk about in different ways made it easier for me to remember. I was able to go over my blog and highlight key areas, write notes, speak to people about it, use images to help me etc. I also think I have been able to develop me speaking skills in and outside of uni. As I live in a more social lifestyle I have become to speak a lot more but also my part time job has given me training as well. Being a waiter means I have to do a lot of remembering on the night and having to be able to go into detail about certain meals or remember customers food orders and requests. Overall I think my presentation went better then I expected and I am happy with how I portrayed the semester.
