One of the reasons for admiring her was because of her unconditional love.

How could it have been improved? : Yes, She started off by saying a general statement about the topic, listed some of the people that others would admire, and then she went on to her thesis statement which presented her own. Overall, it was an effective speech as we got to know about her mum. The speech was very well organised but if there is one thing that she could have done better is by relaxing her hand movements.
