FIRST CLASS


This class has been very interesting so far. I had heard that Professor Trapani was very good at teaching this subject, and, in fact, I liked the way he explains the class. He makes us feel comfortable about facing new situations. That's pretty good because many of us, even though it is not noticeable, feel apprehensive under certain circumstances. He has made us understand that we are not the only ones feeling fear--fear of being rejected/judged (which is probably the main reason why we don't feel confident enough when communicating). And, believe it or not, knowing that others feel the same way is relieving. He made us know that even the best public speakers feel nervous when they have to give a speech. That feeling is quite natural, but it doesn't mean it has to be an obstacle to make an effective communication--an imperative skill to succeed in life. Learning how to do so is my challenge and so my expectations. I do look forward the next classes and continuing this exciting journey. I know I won't be dissapointed but rewarded.
