  1. It's a good presentation about Poe's personal life but we can know very much about what he did in his professional life. For exemple what he write or anything about his work. I though we have to heard you in a recording, so we can see how you speak etc but it's cool anyway. Good work.

  2. I think that's a good presentation. Unfortunately, I find that doesn't talk enough about his professional life. A little more about it will be good but your presentation stays a good one. Like Elsa said it, i thought that you have to posted your recording but I'm maybe wrong :)
    So, this a good presentation but it misses informations about his career.
    But well done Clara!
