School Strengths

I am probably the worst public speaker known to man. My voice starts to shake, I start to shake, my face gets red, and worst of all, I start sweating like a pig! I hate public speaking, and I can’t ever see myself enjoying doing it. I think my strongest suits academically are my note-taking and having a pretty good photographic memory. Looking back on high school, I tried to get away with just looking at my notes once and then going into the test, thinking I’m going to be able to see it all. I take good notes that work for me. I use different color pens, highlighters, etc. My notes have to be very neat, or I can’t remember them. One thing I am awful at doing and just have not been able to wrap my head around is how to write a paper. I am horrible at delivering my points and views. Although, I know it just takes practice. The people at AUR who read over my papers and help me revise it are the best.
