Analytical Reflection on Oral Presentation

Oral presentation has always been a challenge as nervousness has always been a major problem for me whenever I am speaking in front of a crowd. Hence, before the actual presentation, I had several practices with my team members beforehand to overcome my problem. During the rehearsals, I felt that I was able to articulate my ideas and speak fluently in front of my team members. Unfortunately, nervousness took over me during the actual presentation, which resulted in me leaving out crucial contents.

Thus, I received many negative feedback, one of which I was told that my presentation was not in line with my report and my ideas were not delivered smoothly. However, I was complimented for engaging the audience as well as maintaining a good posture during the presentation.

With the experience and feedback, I realized to improve my presentation I will have to overcome my fear of speaking in front of a huge crowd. This can be solved with practices and experiences gained over time and I believe I will get better dealing with it.

In conclusion, although I did not perform well during my presentation, it was a fruitful experience. I will continue to further develop my presentation skills by taking up any opportunities to present in class. Therefore, I hope through those opportunities I will gain more experiences and confidence to give presentations effectively in future.

  1. Hi Junhe,

    I see that your team has done well in the oral presentation. I guess some people are not so good at public speaking, but nevertheless, this communication module has help us to improve our oral and writing communication in some ways. I believe that there are more upcoming presentations that we need to give and deliver in the upcoming modules. I'm sure with such comment by your team mates, you are able to be a confident speaker in the near future.

    Here I wish you best of luck in your studies in SIT!

    Regards,
    Hong Yu
