@@johntonssen7231 that last section was so cringey. Anyway. Obviously if this was an actual presentation in front of thousands at a professional setting, the delivery wasn’t that good. However considering this is a GCSE one done by a child, it is quite good. The pacing was good, fast where it needed to be, pauses where they should be, etc, apart from the occasional parts where she rushed a bit too fast. Also, considering the topic she chose, she remained decent composure, yes there were some parts where she started giggling but in a class with a bunch of immature kids, I’d expect more giggling considering the topic. I’ve been in her position (not the same topic but doing English gcse) and half the kids just blankly read an unrehearsed script.

That is a very false conclusion. If you’re not addressing a group of idiots (which in itself would be pointless), but actually intelligent people they’ll very easily be able to see past whatever facade you’re putting up and judge your points and ideas clearly. In fact even if your presentation is lacking, as long as your points are good you can keep the audience listening. Of course it’s much more preferable that you’re confident in your words

[@projectalpha4782]

She just has infinite self confidence. Self confidence will basically make or break you as a person. If you have it then the world is your oyster. You'll be outgoing, have great people skills, will be willing to take risks, won't care about groups or certain friends, you'll probably be an extrovert which has infinite benefits too. If you don't have self confidence life becomes a whole lot harder. You'll likely have poor social skills which will be the result of social anxiety, if you have social anxiety very few people will want to be around you as it'll be them feel awkward, so you'll find it very hard to make friends, you won't have the confidence to pursue challenging things, you won't take risks, you'll very likely develop depression as a result of nobody wanting to be around you, you'll likely be bullied, you won't have the confidence to ask for anything you want like pay rises. A life without self confidence is hell, believe me. Unfortunately extroverts will thrive in society and introverts won't or will struggle to. The single most important thing in life is communication. If you have good communication every door in the world will open up, if you don't it's a dark, dark place and almost every door will close trapping you.

Fortunes flow back and forth with the tide of the world, but a positive self-image is something which insulates against the worst of these.

Our speeches in my school were regulated, so we weren't allowed to do anything interesting. The options were literally; We shouldn't eat meat, we shouldn't have zoos and climate change is bad. There was an option that gave us a bit of freedom, and unsurprisingly most people picked that one. It was "I am concerned about..." and you'd talk about a concern of yours. My friend did "I am concerned that the British government controls our every action" and another friend did "I am concerned that the British government only gives us free education to filter out intelligent people so that they can have as many low paid workers as possible." I did "I am concern about the abuse of the NHS and the abuse of nursing staff." A little less existential then my friends haha.

@@NyxFox Our school is usually like that but this time they literally said "talk about anything" so I think everyone was a bit stumped by it 😂 We had some pretty interesting ones though like the history of chess, why Manchester City is better than your favourite club, why house plants are good for our mental health, parts of a boat and paddle boarding.
