Personal PARAGRAPH
When it comes to speaking and language, I feel like this is my area of expertise. Since I was young I also enjoyed taking leadership of a group, or in certain situations. To me this was no big deal and it took me a while to realize just how heavily ones language and the power involved in their speaking affected how they communicated. I have always had a loud voice, and the urge to communicate with others which makes it easy for me, whereas other people may be more timid and need to practice their communication skills.
