admired speaker

I have not personally heard a lot of great public speakers, but one man i have personally heard speak is Andres Lara. He was a Cuban refugee that came to the United States with practically nothing, like a lot of Cubans did at that time, on a boat, in order to escape his oppressive country. I admire him as a public speaker because i believe he is successful at what he does. He is a motivational speaker and goes to seminars talking to students and people about his own personal trials and tribulations that he faced and overcame to be what he is today,in hopes to inspire others. I think what makes him stand out and admirable is that he shares his own genuine story about coming to a country with nothing, homeless at 16 and eventually writing books to help people and becoming a success despite the adversity he faced. On top of that, besides the content of his message the way he delivers this message, I think also adds to his success as a public speaker. He paces the room & uses gestures but not in a way that seems fidgety instead he uses the gestures efficiently to enhance his story. & in many of his seminars he engages the audiences making it interactive. I believe that at the end of a seminar like these, one should take something out of it and really think about what they heard & I think if they do than the public speakers spiel should be considered a success.
