When my peers were presenting, I actively listened to my peers, paying close attention to the information shared. This not only demonstrates my respect for them but also provides me the opportunity to pick up good presentation skill sets from my peers. Additionally, I take my professor and classmates' feedback with serious intent and utilise it to my advantage in order to help improve my communication skills.
