    • What could the speaker have done differently to make the speech more effective?

    It would have been a better presentation if I did not stammer, and had less grammatical errors. Also, I think some words were not pronounced well because my tongue was tangled, which is another part of my speech that I should fix.

    • What did you like about the speech?

    I think my voice was loud enough that all of the audience could hear. Also, I used pause and loud voices when I wanted to emphasize my idea. Lastly, I think my topic and organization of speech was quite straight forward that people could understand without difficulties.

    • What could the speaker have done differently to make the speech more effective?

    It would have been more perfect if the speech-giver had used stresses only in places he really wanted to emphasize.

    • What did you like about the speech?

    The speech-giver showed a strong vocal variety (adequate pauses, intonations, stresses, etc), and it worked effectively on persuading the audience.
    The topic chosen for the speech is fresh and new, so it attracts the audiences’ attention at once. Besides, it was a great topic to show a vocal variety of a speech.
    The speech-giver’s voice was clear enough to be heard without a microphone.

    • What could the speaker have done differently to make the speech more effective?
    The presenter was standing in front of the screen and the yellow lights on the presenter’s face was kind of distracting. The light was especially annoying when the presenter was making his points in front of the audience because it kind of made him look funny although he was making a serious argument.
    Also, as he was explaining about the positive aspects of Marijuana in the middle of his presentation, he conveyed lots of emotions and looked as if he was really angry. It was effective in some parts, but I thought it was a little bit too much as it may give a wrong impression that the presenter lost his cool. Because his voice was really loud and emphasized almost every words in his sentences, it may confuse the audience who want to focus more on only the important points.

    • What did you like about the speech?

    The speaker was well prepared in giving his speech. He was very fluent in giving information in a logical flow and expressed his thoughts effectively. I was impressed by his strong arguments because he made his points clearly with lots of data and research results. Also, the choice of topic was definitely appropriate as he seemed to have a strong feeling about the topic.
    His speech delivery was also helpful in understanding his contents. His voice was very clear and intelligible as he had appropriate pauses, pitch, and quality. His gestures and facial expression also facilitated in making his points effective.
