Blog 4 Interview 1 and Persentation
The first Interview effect my Presenations because he had me grasp what Magic the Gathering can bring to people. For example He told me that you really need to have heart for the game.
Just having examples of how the game plays out and having cards to give to the students
Talking infront of people I feel is the hardest thing to do and actually presenting. I feel that is my downfall because Im very bad at explaining myself and just talking in public
