Self-Critique Assignment I think it was my best presentation in Eng. 211 lecture. I would rate the overall effectiveness of my presentation as better than average. I was satisfied with my performance. I hope it will be much better in the final presentation. If I werent the last speaker, I could do better than that. Even if it was my best performance, I had hoped better than this. I had too much time to practice my speech. Therefore it wasnt a problem. I practiced thoroughly. My topic was a well-known phenomenon so; I think most of them were familiar with my topic. However, I tried to give information about interesting facts and unknown points of my topic. I think content of my presentation was well. I used reliable sources and made use of these sources thoroughly. In addition to that, I presented these citations accordingly and in a logical order. I think the only thing that wasnt well was my pronunciation. If I had a chance to change one thing, it would be my pronunciation. I think my posture was well but my hands didnt stop during my presentation. I have a bad habit which is shaking hands. I learnt that I shouldnt do that; however, I dont know how to stop it. If I focus on my hands, I confuse my presentation. I cant do both. I think doing more practices may help me to overcome this issue. The second thing that I plan to working on is my posture. If I get excited during a presentation, I start to swing involuntarily. And the last thing that Ill work on is oral citations. I used the same phrases for presenting the citations.
