  1. Good attention getter to get audience involvement. Sometimes you got your words jumbled so if that happens just take a breath and start over don't try to keep going because it makes it a little bit hard to understand. Overall the content was really good and I really liked your TED challenge. Well done!

  5. Steven, your presentation was great. I enjoyed how you added humor but also made points that were well thought out. I might suggest that you slow down just a little bit so the audience has more time to pick up on what you are saying.

  6. Steven had great volume and emotion during his speech, as well as solid facts, but it was a little rushed and there wasn't much eye contact.

  9. Steven, you had a great presentation. Great attention-getter, and nice job using your hands throughout your presentation. Nice job incorporating humor and working under the pressure, but you might want to work on not getting your words mixed up and talking too fast.

  10. Fast, good dramatic tone it gets our attention. I like the 3 main points and how you told us what they were. Connected to us, friendly tone. You made us laugh, it was educational, you connected, good pregnant pauses. Makes sense. Didn't seem scripted, which is good. YOUR CHALLENGE WAS AWESOME!!! YOU'RE VOICE MATCHED THE EXCITEMENT OF THE TOPIC AND JUST MADE THAT PRESENTATION!!! Good job!

  11. I think Steven's speech was very rushed, but there were many components and a lot of information. It wasn't hard to follow even it was quick-paced. I think his ideas are very valid and applicable to all of our lives.

  14. Kudos to you for being the first to present! You were loud and proud and set a high bar for the rest of us to reach. It was well paced and you had good posture, so no distractions from your presentation. Great work!

  15. Steven,
    I enjoyed listening to your TED Talk! Your point was very clear, and I can tell that you put a lot of time and effort into this speech. One thing to improve on would be putting more emotion and passion into your subject. Otherwise, your speech was interesting and you were yourself. Good job!

  16. Steven, first of all I loved you topic. I agree with you so much and am so glad that you presented it in such a dignified and fluent manner. You stood very well, great posture, lovely speaking voice, and you didn't speak too fast or to slow by any means whatsoever. Your slides really meshed with your speech and your passion really showed. Stellar job.

  18. You did a great job raising your voice loud enough so we could all hear what you had to say clearly. Also, you did good not moving your hands too much or too little, you did just the right amount. I loved you topic about how we need balance in my life, I feel like that is something really important right now. Great job!

  19. Really good speech. I really loved your intro and examples. You seemed very confident. There were a few times were you talked a little quickly but other than that, you did fantastic. Thank you for sharing your ideas.

  22. Great job Steven! I loved the way you maintained great eye contact with everyone, and your voice was strong and emphasized the importance of your topic. And your supporting examples were amazing! The only advice I could possible give is that you sounded a bit rushed. But overall, you did amazing!

  25. The attention getter definitely got my attention - it flowed well into the thesis. Overall, talking speed was a bit fast, though the speech filled the 5 minutes almost perfectly and I could still completely understand what he was saying. Content was good - he used facts to back up his opinions. It was humorous as well as factual and really helped to get his point across of being a well-rounded individual.
