This is my self-evaluation of my speech. After viewing the speech on the flicker site, I think that I did quite well in giving my speech to the class. I did not seem very nervous at all and I was not too laid back. I did run over time a little bit, but that was just a slight planning error. My speech seemed to be delivered smoothly, in my opinion. One bad thing I noticed, however, was that I played with my papers a bit too much. It slightly subtracted from the point I was trying to make about my topic. Also, I fidgeted with my sleeves, which had the same effect. My voice inflection seemed normal. I thought I spoke clearly and with proper variation for the type of speech I was giving. The speed was good; I paced myself through the speech so I would not have too much time spent on one thing over another and not go too far over the time limit, while I made sure to not rush through my delivery and run under the time minimum. My visual aids were good; I used adequate pictures of my equipment. However, I could have added in a video or an actual picture of a wake surfer to show the class what the sport really looks like. Also, my speech was delivered in a manner that made sense. I had correct ordering of steps and I set up my introduction and conclusion well so it agreed with my process. In conclusion, I thought my speech went very well. I am ready for the next speech, but I really want to get it over with.
