Video 2.1: Jeanine taught me ways to manage anxiety while public speaking. I learned that in order to be calm you must use your senses and focus on what will go right and not wrong. This is useful because before and during speeches I tend to think of all of the possible ways I can mess up. In order to over come this, I can use breathing techniques such as diaphragmatic breathing and meditation breathing.
Video 2.2: Anthony and Jeanine taught me ways to manage my anxiety. From Anthony I learned to practice the introduction and the conclusion because it makes you more confident. While practicing my speeches, I will learn to memorize my introductions and conclusions in order for my speeches to run smoothly.
Video "Intro: Jessica": By watching Jessica's speech, I noticed that she had a strong introduction and conclusion in order to keep the audience interested.
Overall, these videos taught me what to do and what not to do and I will definitely be keeping Anthony and Jeanine's tips in mind.

After watching the videos I found many of the tips they gave very useful too! Definitely keeping them in mind! Silly thing is, what Janine taught to cope with stress anxiety such as the use of diaphragmatic and meditative breathing, I learned in my other class, Stress Management.
ReplyDeleteI can totally relate to your thought of thinking of all the ways in messing up when it comes to presenting a speech. What I tell myself is that if I keep thinking I will mess up, I will. If I keep my mind off that and focus on the positives, it'll help build confidence during a presentation. Hope that helps (:
