Introduction

Hello Everyone,

My name is Tiana and I am completely new at blogging, so I may not be doing this right. I'm sure by the end of the semester I will have gotten the hang of it. Not only am I a student at San Jose State, but I also work in the Bursar Office on campus. I have one son who is 5 years old and just started kindergarten last week. Hopefully my blogs won't be too boring for anybody who may be reading this. ; )

The only public speaking experience I have is from work. I see students face to face on a daily basis to discuss issues they may be having with their account. My goal for this class is to be able to obtain at least a letter grad of B. I still get nervous when having to do presentations in front of others I don't really know well. Hopefully by the end of this class, I would have conquered my nerves, and will be able to feel comfortable giving presentations in front of both small and large groups.

Hope everybody has a great day!

Hi! I just wanted to say I'm the same way when it comes to public speaking....Im not really in the same situation as you because I dont have a job and I'm not required to be face to face with student up close and but just the idea of constantly being surrounded with them makes me a little nervous cause you never know what people are thinking.

Hi! I'm new to blogging too but I think that we're going to learn a lot more about each other than we would in class. It'll be fun meeting each other in person later in the semester. See you then!
