First, I would like to thank my teammates for all the efforts they have committed in the preparation of slides and the numerous rehearsals we had before our presentation. I've realised that having rehearsals before the actual presentation is crucial, it heightened my confidence during the presentation.
After gathering feedbacks, I understood that the structure of our presentation was not clear enough. I have learnt that the structure of the presentation is crucial, as it determines what our audiences will take away from our presentation. Another portion of the presentation that we can improve on is time management. I have also made a few mistakes, which were already brought to my attention during the previous peer-teaching sessions, such as filler words and long pauses during my presentations. However, as I was nervous during the presentation, I made the same mistakes again.
After all, every cloud has a silver lining. In my opinion, there were things that my teammates and I have done particularly well. During the Question and Answer session, I was proud that my team could answer every question that was directed at us, it only meant that we were well-prepared and confident about the topic we were presenting. During the switching of speakers, the flow was smooth too. I could also feel my team's passion and enthusiasm about the topic.
Last but not least, the oral presentation was a valuable learning experience. From the preparation of slides to the rehearsals and finally the presentation, I will use the knowledge gained in my future presentations.
