  • You will give a 5-10 minute presentation in front of the class reviewing what you have learned over the past year and how you plan on using what you have learned moving forward.
  • Start at the beginning of the year with self discovery, the careers you were interested in, and if that has changed over the year.  What did you learn, or learn about yourself in regards to the Soft Skills we discussed this year.  Finally, wrap up with how you will use the topics we discussed through out the year moving forward in your life, either personal or work related.

 

  • Feel free (if you would like) to include what you would have liked to learn this past year, or ideas to improve the class for next year.
  • I do not want “your class was great, Greg is great” I would love an honest critique of the class in hopes of making it better next year.

I highly recommend you use slides to assist you and keep your audience engaged.  You can use Google Slides, Canva or PowerPoint.
