i am as the second last person in my group that have to give my opinion on the topic about increasing price of food in Malaysia..it is quite tough topic for me..i am not a person that kind of alert on this type of matter..hehe..so,it is quite challenging for me..some of my group member give comments about my voice that some of them cannot hear my voice clearly n vice versa..caused of my nervousness,some of them give comment that i'm looked shy while delivering my speech..however,thanks god because i get some good comments about my speech content..it means they still alert on what i'm trying to deliver..for me,this activity is good as it can improve our skill in giving speech although it is just in front of our friends..

Actually this type of spot talk really works to enhance my public speaking skills. I can talk within a group of 15 and this really reduce my nervousness. my topic was the tv program that make me sad and cry. My friends told that i have no eye contact with them, i'm very shy, less body language, i speak too fast, my volume was very low and most important is less confident. Wah!!! so much things i have to improve! But nevermind. I'm sure i will become better from time to time by practising more. However, i'm very glad that plenty of my friends say that my eloboration was good and my story was touching! What a wonderful words for me!! haha... Anyway, Thanks to all who had give me their comments.

Impromptu presentation? That was a good activity because it can help students to become a good speaker and improves our skills. That day, I get the topic about the politic in Malaysia, so I have to give an opinion. It’s very hard to elaborate because I do not get the detail about the latest news issue. So I continue the speech with lack of content and I get many comments from my audience after my speech, but as I have predicted that I'm not a good speaker, but I will try my best. From that, I know my weakness is low of confidence and lack of ideas. So from their comments, I have to improve my public speaking. Thank you.

Present in impromptu speech is some things that new for me,before this I never get the comment or critic from others,I think this is a brilliant ways to improves ourself to be more comfident and to boost our self insteem to high level.The comment from our friend can be use to build and improve our weakness.My friend are really honest when giving their opinion,sometimes somethings that we never think and never knows,are coming from our friend.So next times I will get some improve when speak in public.

Shy is always come out when i had to talk in front of people,i also fell nervous and my hand automatically shaking,i also can't speake properly even i had given easy topic to talk about..but this is my situation when i still at primary scholl,today,i can improve my spaking skill by doing a lot of preparation and practice to talk among my classmate expecially..i can speake in front of people even my grammar are not good,but this is one way how to improve my english,besides,i can talk with clear sound so that everyone can listen to me,but there are still some problems that hard for me to do,there are speak with my own spontant ideas and i still don't have enough self confident when speake in front of the audience..these can tell us what kind of presenter i am..

Honestly i'm not a good presenter.Having presented in an impromptu speech last Monday is not my first time..but i still cannot do the best.I had given a topic about
"My first invention".It's quite difficult to explain about the topic whereas i don't have any idea about invention.Actually i'm not a kind of person that can think properly as i am given a very short time and i have to think and sort out a lot of things but in that task i did it.I got a lot of comments from my friends..some of them said that i can speak but maybe because of lack of confidence i cannot do very well..while others said that my voice cannot be heard
clearly and less eye contact with audience.All comments are useful for me because i can analyse my strengths and weakness when delivering speech.Thanks a lot for those who had given some comments to me..i will improve myself.

well....i think this activity is the most activities that i like than others...it make me built more confident in my self to talk in front of others...even thought it just talk in front of my classmates,it quite difficult because i am not used to talk in front of people...
i also got many comments from my friends..there are comments that very useful to me built more confident when give talk and improve my style of speech...i also can overcome my fear as many as i can...shy is normal things that happen when we talk in front of people..but this activity make my shy less and i think this is the way which i can prepare for my first presentation next wik..even thoght i just gave 5 minutes to prepare my speech that is about 'mysterious experience' but i think i did it well..and lastly i need to work hard to improve my english..

i'm not a good speaker.frankly speaking after i got my own topic, i'm blank and speechless.actually my topic is about the increasing of oil price.firstly i think this topic is quite hard for me because i hate talking about facts and i am lack of ideas.my hands was shaking and still cannot create my points eventhough the 2minutes are over.thank god.i was so lucky that day because i am the last speaker in my group.so i got lots of time to prepare my speech.i'm just calmed down and started to think.after i finished my speech i got many comments from my friends.from that i will improve my speech to be a better speaker.

Talk about this class activity, I really really like it.haha.. Know from where we hear this sentence?;p Actually I’m not a god speaker yet. So, by doing this activity I can evaluate myself and try to enhance my speaking skills. For me, I thing I’m too shy when speak in front of my friend so they was comment about my voice that not very clear, lack of body language and eye contact. It’s a good comment for me because from that I know where my weakness is and I’ll try to practice more and more and more to be a good speaker. For me there is nothing impossible.

Hai everybody...'Impromptu speech' is really interesting activity. We have to deliver the speech spontaneously in front a group of 15. I given a topic "My Pet".I nervous at first because i do not have pet but i managed to create a cutie dog(Johny). My friends say that i do not have eye contact with them and my voice not really loud, but some says i'm really good in delivering speech and have many ideas to elaborate. Its really enhance me to build up my strength and try to overcome my weakness to be a better speaker. I realize one day i will became a fantastic speaker and presenter...Thank You..

Honestly,I really don't like activity that want a person to speak in english.I'm not hate it,I just not like it.Actually,my English language not really good and I will have many grammar error when I speak in English.The topic that I get is simple but I don't have many idea what I want to talk about in English.I also not eloborate my point very well.I have low body language with my audience and it will make people feel bored with my speech.Now I realise that this activity will help to improve my weakness because my audience will give comment to my speech.Finally,I know how to improve my weakness..

Actually i dont know what to talk about..because i have a lot of weaknesses when i talk in public,so i want to talk about them..first of all my language is very bad,so i cannot speak very well..sometimes i have a lot of ideas,but its all gone when i facing with public..it show that i did not have any confidence..the comments that i got from my group when do this activity is i cannot elaborate my point very well..i admit that i am not a person who likes reading..so i lack of ideas..and i also feel bad when speaking because i know that my language totally broken..sometimes i really want to improve my language but i do not know how..and sometimes i think start all again from the basic of english..
thanks.

actually, I'm not so good enough in present among the public.It make me feel uncomfortable.It could be because of the shy and nervous condition that make the presentation performances turn down. sometime i not very confident that i can talk in front of people. That are prove by no body language and good intonation during presentation.But all of this weakness must be change day by day.with often present and present and present, it may help me to overcome my weaknesses. i hope i can be a good presenter......hopefully!!!!

Lets just be who I am, thats the kind of presenter am I, well I guess so, but yet, not really, since learning process started with imitation of other, and now I probably presumed that I am just a copy master of my teachers and friends.The weakness, get influenze by our surround is the greatest weakness on which we should overcome. I'm the the speaker, then I should just ignore them

What actually that other people have and I not is the vocabulary. My English is totally break and it can be prof by my muet result.this is my weakness and I will make myself just like good presentator .

I have a lot of weaknesses in myself when i give a speech or present some thing. I know this when i must give some speech that my lecturer give. I feel nervous when i start talk and lose my confident. Beside that I don’t have eye contact, talk with slow voice and always look at my paper. But I thing i still have some strength when give a speech like can elaborate my point properly. All my weakness i must be corretly to be a good presenter. I hope my friend and Madam Noli can give me advice to me to be a good presenter.

Am i a good presenter???

As you know,i also not a good presenter but i still try my best!!
i have idea but i can not elaborate properly..
furthermore,i still nervous and little bit shy when i present...when i get some comment from my friends,i think i must improve my english such as always speak english, read more english magazine or newspaper and always practice public speaking...
Plus,Taking me as presenter....erm.. I think it is hardly to examine which type of presenter I am..Maybe I like being a direct speaker without preparing the text for me to remember..but as I tried to be that kind of presenter, I keep losing words from my mind. Maybe I should practice speak and speak.. About the audience, it seems that I haven' yet having problem with them. Most of the audiences are very supportive.what ever it is, i try to be the best...

am I a good presenter??certainly not..I have my own weaknesses like:
-being nervous when speaking to public
-stage fright
-I often want to finish my speech quickly. That makes my speech to become very short and my crowd would not be able to catch up my speech
-i have grammar error here and there, so fluent speakers will be having trouble understanding what the speech is all about.
this 'what kind of presenter am I?' activity helped me to fix my weaknesses.
