Peer Evaluation Reflection

While observing my preparation work, research work, critical analysis, and clarity of my content, she suggested that I improve my delivery style. She highlights that I relied too much on my notes and avoided eye contact with the audience. Sathika has recognised that my tone is not as strong as I maintain during our day-to-day discussions. The tone could have been more varied to highlight key points and maintain audience engagement. Another point mentioned was poor body language, which gives a confident and natural way of presenting.

This feedback offered a fresh way of looking at my presentation style. I always prioritise in-depth analysis and a creative way of writing as I believe that the quality of information is the main factor of an academic work. However, my peers helped me to identify that the presentation is equally important as content in the professional context. This feedback directly impacted my future career goal as a Merchandising Manager, as presenting with confidence is important to retain stakeholders. Speaking is connecting people, not just conveying the information.
