SELF-EVALUATION ABOUT ORAL PRESENTATION.

Last friday, in English class, I did the oral presentation about my research project. So, in this entry, I want to comment a little bit how I did it and the aspects I have to improve it.

 

Regarding to how it was, I have to say that I hate do oral presentations. I hate it because I'm so shy and I don't like to speak in public. This year there are a lot of people in class who have a hight level in English, this fact makes me feel more insecure about my English because I know that I don't have a very high level. That fact also make me feel more embarrassed. But I know that I have to learn to speak in public.

 

I also have to say that, If we compare this last presentation with the others, I have improved. I think that I have improved the body language a little bit. I know that it isn't the best, but I remember that last year I couldn't look at people. Although I have improved a bit, I have to keep trying to improve this aspect. That's why the next term I will try to do another extra oral presentation. If I can do it, I will try to do the oral presentation without notes, so I will be able to focus in the body language.

 

Another aspect that I have to impove is the pronunciation and fluency when it comes to speaking. But I’m sure that most of my mistakes are due to shyness.

 

In conclusion, I know that I have to improve a lot of aspects when I do an oral presentation, like pronunciation, but I think that I have to work hard in the body language, which is is produced by shyness.
