How to Juggle a Soccer Ball

After watching my demonstration speech on how to juggle a soccer ball, I had mix reactions towards it. I noticed that there were many positives and negatives. The positives in my speech really enhanced it to make it a fairly good speech. One positive point in my speech was my introduction. I felt that my introduction had a very good attention grabber and it really engaged the audience for the whole speech. Without a good introduction, you can lose the audience and that’s something I didn’t do. Another positive attribute to my speech was that I thoroughly explained each step of juggling pretty well. I believe that I spend enough time covering the steps, so that the audience will learn. Also, I was able to repeat my steps, which helped the audience remember all the steps. The last positive point, which really stood out to me was that my props were very affective. It helped engage the audience and I think they really enjoyed them. Although I had many positive points to my speech, there were also many negative ones. One negative was that throughout the speech, my hands were constantly moving. I’m not sure why I did this, but it wasn’t necessary. Another negative, which I noticed was that my conclusion, was rushed. I think this was because I got scared of the time limit, and for some reason thought I would go over. Because of rushing the conclusion, my speech was a little short, affecting my overall grade. If I were to practice my conclusion for a little longer, I could have avoided this. Overall, I noticed many positives and negatives in my speech. With a little more practice and organization I could have made my speech a lot better. I really learned from my mistakes of watching the speech, so I will do better next time and for future endeavors.
