Personal Narrative-Paid Analysis

English class has never really been my strongest subject, in regards to fully understanding the work and criteria. The lack of confidence coming into this year was unreal but I feel as though I’ve improved significantly. Having never been taught claim, data, warrant I was a little apprehensive when it came time to writing papers. Improving my writing skills was actually a goal I had strived to meet, and after realizing the college level would be much more difficult, I found it imperative to strengthen my writing capabilities.

I have been enrolled at Clarion University for 2 semesters, and English 256 has been the most educating course in my college career thus far. An intro to genders and sexualities course may seem irrelevant for the degree I am pursuing, but the enlightening experience it has offered is unmeasurable. Accepting every individual without exceptions is an important virtue that every professional should have; this course has offered extensive insight and allowed myself to become more understanding of the LGBTQ community. Prior to this course, I was unaware of the salient literature and culture relating to LGBTQ. Through the process of creating and presenting my project, I realized my strengths and weaknesses, I learned many valuable things, and became

Organization is a key requirement in a speech. If the speech is not organized it wont make sense to the audience and they will have a mind set of thinking that your not even prepared for the speech. If you don't practice your organized speech it would just seem like your going back and forth from one topic to the other. When Napoleon got up in class to talk about the current events that were going on he kept having difficulties pronouncing words. Also he had a huge gap of silence in his speech because it wasn't organized properly. In SpongeBobs speech he talked about what people thought about him, what were the objections he got from different people, and how he overcame it. Which

1.What did you do well in your informative presentation? Be specific. Use examples from your speech.

I recently did my demonstration speech on how to make a lava lamp. In my opinion the speech went very well. The specific purpose of my presentation was for my classmates to be able to make their own lava lamp to help them take care of kids they have to babysit. I believe I did a very good job at explaining the procedure of making a lava lamp step by step. I am confident that after my presentation was over everyone in the class would be able to make their own lava lamp.

Surreptitiously and quietly, the posted sentries at the main entrance leading to the Dweller city of New Hope maintained their duties guarding it, keeping watch over any potential threats that may arise from beyond the entrance at any time. From the balcony that stood directly above the steel gates of the main entrance, the Dweller city guard had managed to place a small barrier of sandbags with an additional sentry gun turret, consisting of twin mounted MG42 machine guns. Even further behind the sandbags and sentry turret emplacement was a table, with two G43 semi-automatic rifles leaning on the table. Seated around the table, there were three Dwellers: two Dwellers who were part of New Hope’s city guard, and the Silent Orphan, the leader

With that, I talked with enthusiasm to keep everyone engaged. One way I could have done better was to make sure I did not talk too fast. I remember being very nervous at first and making eye-contact with my mom while talking. She mouthed to me slow down and by her saying that, it helped me relax. After that, I made sure to not rush through and take my time. Thankfully, that little reminder was enough and I hope to remember that while giving speeches in this class.

I played a round of spent and was out of money on day 13. I started by finding a job, the job I got pay around $300 dollars a month. I chose the lowest health insurance plan with a $45 copay. I then hit a car while driving my child to school and had to choose between stopping and paying for damages or to keep driving, I chose to keep going. I also acquired a speeding ticket, which I contested in court and won but missed a day of work and got a strike. I had to make a decision to between my health or paying to see a doctor, I chose to ignore my health and save money. Some damages were made to my car and I asked a friend for help so I could save the money for something else. I ignored my student loans that were due. I lost on day 13 from a phone

I started to get ill while working at C-73 (CIFW & Transportation) I had my time in and really wanted longer than my 23 1/2 years. My family urged me to retire and I finally did. Shortly after retiring I began non stop visits to a roll call of doctors after 2 years all doctors said I was qualified to receive SSD I didn't want SSD but; I realized tomorrow is not promised and I applied I received it first time around I was shocked. I have chronic health issues, COPD one of the most pressing I never smoked but I opened several housing areas after asbestos removal which till had layers of "dust" and the locker room where workers wore spaced suits I suspect this is where it started. Greg, do hesitate you worked for it go ahead and take what is yours

People tend to look for a solution; whenever they feel a want or need, they will search for a way to satisfy it,when they confronted with a problem that disturbs their normal orientation (Alan Monroe 1969). Derived by following those normal processes of human thinking Monroe create a sequence name The Motivated Sequence, it motivates an audience to respond affirmatively to the speaker’s purpose .The sequence contains five distinct steps.

Nearly every child has a desire to live on a tropical island due to a series of adventitious circumstances. Fortunately, at the age of eight, my father’s occupation required my family to move to Puerto Rico. Little did I know that this move would be the catalyst needed to transform myself into who I am today. Upon arrival, my family was met with bombast lectures about the effects of culture shock, and what life would be like on a U.S. territory. However, I was still unprepared for the dramatic change my academic and social life was about to face. After my first day of school, I realized that the school I was going to attend was the antithesis of my former school. I did not derive this conclusion solely because of the level of academics, but also in

The reason as to why I have chosen this group of people is because they were the ones that were very pushy and cruel of Juliet, whereas Lord and Lady Montague did not act this way to Romeo. Lord and Lady Capulet regarded their daughter as a possession, and controlled her and make choices for her for their benefits. An example is when later on in the book when Juliet refuses to marry Paris, Lord Capulet said Juliet will either marry him or Lord Capulet will disown her. The feelings that Lord Capulet expresses to the outside world is much different than his underlying feelings. For example, he says, “My will to her consent is but a part. An she agreed within her scope of choice, lies my consent and fair according voice”

For my Informative Speech in COMM 210, I wanted to inform my class on my workplace, Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari. The specific purpose of my speech was for my audience to know the past, present, and achievements of this theme park by the end of my speech. I feel I achieve this pretty well. For this speech, I was much more comfortable in front of the class. This allowed me to keep it together and not let my nerves get to the best of me. While I could have broken the history of the park down a lot more by talking about different owners, I choose to give a brief touch to all points. By doing this I think my specific purpose was more comprehensible. My presentation and way I presented the speech allowed me to achieve my specific purpose. (Q1)

The purpose of this memorandum is to provide an overview of main points and my reactions to the article “How to Become an Authentic Speaker.” The author provides a solid framework to consider your authenticity in public speaking.

In preparation for this presentation I reviewed my textbooks to discover creditable outside sources and learn relevant and applicable information on urinary tract infections. I also wanted to ensure that the information I was planning to communicate to my peers was up-to-date, relevant and precise. I expended a great deal of effort as I didn’t want to misconstrue the facts which could lead to misinformation. As well I recognized the importance of acquiring and conveying pertinent knowledge on this subject, not only for our upcoming clinical placement but also as we move forward into our careers and practices. I believe that the material I presented was a positive learning experience, both for myself, and my fellow students. Personally, I recognize
