I just had to give a presentation on genetic disorders today, so I decided to make this thread.
Are you good at presentations? Do you like them?
I suck at presentations, and I hate doing them! Especially since 5th grade. I had to give the school announcements on TV. Yeah...I froze in front of the camera and failed miserably. Ever since then, I just haven't been that good at giving them. :(
I still get good grades on them, since it's usually the content and just a little of how you gave the presentation.
I can do powerpoints and stuff like that. When it comes to formal speeches, I suck.
I am a great public speaker, but I do tend to talk too much sometimes. D=
I'd consider myself an excellent public speaker. Hell, I had to give a presentation to the Superintendent just this past week - with every Principal in the division there as well. I can get a little unnerved for presentations, but Social Studies and French have both pretty well ingrained it into me. I feel at home center stage.
i'm decent, at best.
I usually get great marks on my speeches.
I'm mediocre, but I get As and Bs on it if they're grading the presentation quality.
Oh dear god no.
I'm horrible when it comes to speeches.
I always feel as if people are staring at me, and thinking "Hey look him, that faggot's gonna fail"
And I have a problem when it comes to my volume and speed.
One minute I'm loud and talking slow, the next, you can barely hear me, and I'm talking extremely fast.
Haha at this point there was one vote for each choice.
I'm decent.
If I've prepared a speech, and gone over it many times, yes, I think I'm pretty good at public speaking. If it's improvisational, on the other hand, I'm below average with the scenario.
Put me on a stage and give me some lines. I'll be fine when I'm on stage and doing a play. :3 I don't see anything but darkness. +w+
But if you just have me read a speech or something. I tend to be uber quiet. More so then I usually am. Dx (I have a light kinda soft voice) So I just kinda end up fast whispering to myself. xD; I don't like the feeling of everyone staring. ;3; I start panicking.
I....guess I'm ok....But that's not me. I'm more laid back and shy.

Me too. I never shut up once I get started.
I've performed and spoken if front of a lot of people. Doesn't bother me. And if you do mess up, people love it, it makes good entertainment XD

This exactly. I love performing, but not public speaking.
Well, my knees are always shaking when I have to give a speech, so no. XD
I still get good points on them. :)
I'm pretty good at it, I just stutter when speaking aloud quite a lot. Also, people think my voice is awesome or something because I'm not monotoned.
I talk a lot so yeah I pretty good at anything with talking...
It really depends on the topic. If it's something I enjoy talking about it, I can do very well presenting. Otherwise not so much. Although after having to do my speech for graduation, class speeches are much easier.
