Group Member Reaction Paper

1. Overall I think our group together did a good job working as a team. Zachary did a great job as the manuscript reader because he was clear when reading and made good eye contact. Even though Billy was reading from his phones, he was probably the best in our team because of his enthusiasm. We did work independently and then came together when we performed. We used google drive to discuss the presentation and to help each other with our own position in the company. Everyone in our group put equal effort in the work and there were no slackers in our group. At times I just hoped all my group member did their part and I was always nervous for them. Zachary had good eye contact and his tone was informative but his hand gestures were a little …show more content…
He also maintained good hand movements to get his point across. He looked confident and helped the confidence to our group. I started my part with confidence because of Billy, but out of now where I blanked out, and because of this, I was nervous throughout my part. My voice was shaky and I was trying hard to get back to my speech but kept messing up. By my body movement you can see I was really nervous and just wanted to get it over with. Alexandra did a great job because she was loud and her tone was clear and precise. She had good hand movement and she definitely help our group. I’m pretty sure I definitely got fired because of my presentation.

What made the sad was I actually tried really hard to practice hard to do my best and end the class with a good grade and a good presentation but I got unlucky. After that, it was a disaster because I kept looking back at the board because I was so scared and knew I was messing up. My eye contact was bad because I was so nervous and my tone and pitch was shaky. I couldn’t believe that happened that time during presentation and felt I got extremely unlucky to black out. Because I knew I was messing up, I was even more nervous and in the end, I got back on track and tried to finish my part to my best abilities. I definitely took away from the group. If I could go back, I would start with a deep breath and a calm state of mind and start my presentation. I wanted you to know, even though the presentation looked like I put no effort to the presentation, I did try hard to make it my best presentation but things didn’t go as
