Persuasive #1

Doing a persuasive speech proved to be tons easier do create. I was easier to think of subject and what to say about that subject. I choose to write about rights of religious minorities. To me this is something we all should be concerned about because it will ultimately affect you. But that is my view so writing about something that I am passionate about made that speech easier to present. I also had less difficulties speaking with passion and emphasis. I enjoyed research about different religion and their beliefs so that I could make points about the similarities. Over all I like doing persuasive speech over informative, I feel that I can express myself more with this type of speech.

Informative #2

Doing this informative speech, that was to be not on a controversial subject was hard. I am one that likes to start debates, so knowing that I couldn’t do that made it hard to find an interesting subject. Friends told me to talk about social security but I really don’t care at my age, though that could be a bad thing. But over all the speech want all right, I know I could have done a lot better knowing my public speaking skills. This is all a learning process and I have a lot of learning to do so that I can improve the art of impromptu speeches.
