Presentation Skills
I have always been an introvert and have never liked to speak in front of groups or the public. The MPA classes have helped me become more comfortable in public speaking by first getting into small teams with other classmates. By talking in small groups, I learned to become a little more comfortable in speaking and sharing my opinions. These small groups allowed me to build relationships with other classmates and this gave me more comfort to stand in front of the classroom and do my own presentations. Though the thought of doing a presentation is still frightening to me, my presentation skills have certainly improved over the course of the program.
