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

    First of all, the volume of the speech is too soft. I did not use a microphone because I thought the microphone would make my voice very monotonous, and instead overestimated my voice that it would be big enough to be heard in the clip. But as I watched my speech I realized I was wrong. It would have been so much better if I had used one.
    And I could have made my gestures and body language bigger. I was only concerned about the visibility of my ppt back then, but I could have used more body languages to persuade my audiences more effectively.

    • What did you like about the speech?

    The contents of my ppt were very clear and organized.
    This time I did not rely on the script, for I memorized it all.

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

    It would have been better if she had justified the very reason why it is crucial for the government to step in and go against the free market system. Since the government puts the minimum wage above the equilibrium wage, there might be a group of people who could be fired or could not find jobs due to surplus.

    • What did you like about the speech?

    Firstly, the topic was interesting. It was good enough to draw attention from the average-knowledge people since it deals with the current issues in Korea. Secondly, vocal variety was effective. Although it might seem to change little during the presentation, concerning the type of speech and delivery, it was fair enough to convey what she wanted to say in an efficient and pleasant manner.
