Reflection Of Kevin's Informative Speech On The World Cup

Not every individual knows about the world cup, nor how it works across the nation. I, myself did not know what it was all about, all that popped in mind was a soccer image. In the informative speech that Kevin informed the class about, he talked about the world cup and how it is more than just a game for those who admire soccer, it is a passion.

By having a prepared speech with signposts help the audience know what will be the next topic that will be talked about and help individuals know exactly what to expect and also, to not have questions while the speech is being
