write a speech on an experience that has helped shaped your identity. The purpose of the Introductory Speech is to speak about something in your life that was a coming-of-age experience. In other words, this experience put you on course for your future or it drastically changed the way you see things. Some students have spoken about a death in the family that forced them to change plans, while others spoke about abuse or challenges they had overcome.
