Public speaking
On the Thursday of 5/10/2017 Alan Devine came to our school to help us with public speaking. He gave us tips on how we can overcome our fear of talking to a big or small audience. He started by giving us all a joke each and made us all stand up and say the joke to our class and this helped us grow our confidence. He then made us all stand up and look at someone in the eye for three seconds. It was akward at first but after the first couple of people we got used to it and it was fine. He told us not to cross our legs and not keep our hands behind our back but to keep them at our stomach which he called home. He stayed with us for the whole day and it was very good because he helped me overcome my fear of public speaking and he didnt just talk to us all day while we sat in our seats he played games with us to make us feel more comfortable within our class.Before he left he said he will be back the following friday and to write a page speech on something that means something to us.
