I chose to revise my Motivational Speech for the same reasons that I chose to revise my Persuasive Essay-- it was a topic about which I am passionate, I had the opportunity to inspire others to take action on an issue, and it was a great culmination of all that I have learned this semester.
When recording this speech, I had a difficult time because I have been dealing with a bad case of allergies lately. My voice is kind of hoarse, but there really was no avoiding that. When I recorded my speech, I made sure to vary my tone a lot more. This semester, I learned that when I speak in front of an audience, I tend to speak somewhat monotonously. In this speech, I put (or attempted to put, due to my current health conditions) as much emotion into my speech as possible. I also spoke slower and more clearly (or, again, attempted to.)
