Informative Speech VS. Persuasive Speech

For my informative speech, I had a lot of mess ups. I read of my notecards too much and said "uh" and "um" a lot. I also looked back at my power point a lot which also made me have bad eye contact. I had a lot of room to improve.

For my persuasive speech, I talked about cyber bullying and how big of a problem it is. I had a good hook and a good thesis statement. I had no hand gestures though because I was holding my notecards. I think my eye contact improved from my first speech but I still need to look at the sides.
