    1. What strong points does the speaker have?
    The speaker’s voice and pronunciation were clear enough for us to understand. Also, fact that she used herself as the example in her presentation was very interesting (It was easier for the audience to understand each stage). Lastly she explained some technical or medical terms well to help the audience.
    2. How well did the audience get to know the speech subject?
    Since the speaker used herself as an example, it was easier for the audience to understand what she’s really talking about. related herself with her experience to help audience's understanding. I was able to learn how people feel, which hormones are produced each stage.
    3. Did the speech reflect adequate preparation?
    Yes. The visual aid (powerpoint) was very well prepared and the speech was organized very well.
    4. Did the speaker talk clearly and audibly?
    The speaker spoke clearly and it was audible. The general speed of the speech was good too.
    5. Did the speech have a definite opening, body, and conclusion?
    - The speech was organized with a clear introduction, body and a conclusion. The introduction was good enough to grab our attention, body was clear with a lot of information, and the way she ended her speech telling us about her thought about love was really great.
    6. Please comment on the speaker's use of notes/eye contact.
    She tried to look at the audience, so making eye contact was not much of a problem. However, she sometimes looked at her notes constantly which made the audience think that she is not fully prepared.
    7. What could the speaker have done differently that would have improved the speech?
    There were some filler words that were unnecessary and it would have been much better if the speaker depended less on the note pad.
    8. What did you like about the presentation?
    The topic itself was very interesting and I really liked how she put herself into the presentation. This was very creative. Also, the voice was clear enough and the general organization of the speech was great. It was very comfortable for us to listen to the presentation.

    1. What strong points does the speaker have? 
    You related the speech with your experience, which made it very interesting and absorbing.
    2. How well did the audience get to know the speech subject? 
    You gave detailed explanations for every chemical but there were too many of them to understand them all. Maybe some images would've helped.

    3. Did the speaker talk clearly and audibly? Yes.
     
    4. Did the speech have a definite opening, body, and conclusion? 
    Yes. You used adequate phrases that indicated opening/body/conclusion.
    5. Please comment on the speaker’s use of notes/eye contact. 
    In my opinion you looked down too much instead of making eye contacts with everybody at the opening, but it got better.
    6. What could the speaker have done differently that would have improved the speech? 
    There were fillers like "Ummm" and many unnecessary conjunctions such as however and so. Without them your presentation would be a lot better.
    7. What did you like about the presentation?
    I really enjoyed your presentation mainly because it was about you. You were vary candid and humorous, so your presentation was natural and appealing.

    Title : Three stages of falling in love

    1. What strong points does the speaker have?
    I was really surprised about your English pronunciation because it was very fluent and clear therefore I hadn’t any difficulties on understanding your speech, which I think that it’s important because this means that you were able to show clearly your ideas to the audience.

    2. How well did the audience get to know the speech subject?
    We could understand the subject clearly because you explained in detail step by step the 3 stages of falling in love and also with examples from your own experiences which was a great idea.

    3. Did the speech reflect adequate preparation?
    I could see that you took enough time to prepare your presentation because you’ve never did any mistakes or read too much when delivering the speech.

    4. Did the speaker talk clearly and audibly?
    Your voice was clear and with the appropriate volume so the audience was able to put attention on your presentation until it ends.

    5. Did the speech have a definite opening, body, and conclusion?
    It was well organized; therefore all the steps to develop an informative speech were on the presentation.

    6. Please comment on the speaker’s use of notes/eye contact.
    You did eye contact with every one of us however I would be a little bit better if you do more eye contact with the audience. And also you used the cards but you didn’t watched it frequently therefore you developed a great speech.

    7. What could the speaker have done differently that would have improved the speech?

    For me your presentation was great but if I should have to give you a recommendation, you could relax your body more so you could look more natural.

    8. What did you like about the presentation?
    I liked your examples because it was related with your own experiences which made your speech more interesting.
