When I explain the evaluation contest to new members, I include a link to this as an example of a great evaluation. Good number of points. Specific examples. Entertaining so it holds our interest. The acronym is a great idea because it fits the points; not forced.
I disagree with some previous posts. An evaluation IS a speech! And the evaluator SHOULD address the target speaker--they are the one you are really talking to. These are key to a great evaluation speech.
Great evaluation Andrew!

Good speech, good delivery, but I did not like this eval. A speech is a speech, but an evaluation needs to about about the speaker and not the evaluator. You can be naturally entertaining, but "shtick" like the acronym is distracting, and it gives you the impression that the evaluation was written in some way prior to the speech. As a speech it would be good, but an evaluation is about re-enforcing the good points of a speech, and offering growth points to improve.

oh wow, this must be the best evluation I have ever seen. Youve won the competition, right? Do you have any advice on how to become such an oustanding evaluator? I mean more the advanced tips, I am already an evaluator and have done some research on the topic. For example, where did you come up with the great idea of using an acronym like MATTHEW? wow.

Unique but still effective!

I found this evaluation quite effective. It was entertaining and at the same time crisp.
I disagree with one of the comments, which said that an evaluation cannot be entertaining.

Thank you for your comments. I would respond that I do not believe [even though I present a few...] that there are really any viable "shoulds"-- When we stick to much to a criteria or a set of "shoulds" handed down to us...we, as they say, literally "should" all over ourselves... In MY opinion, if an evaluator educates AND entertains, (s)he has done well..the best teachers entertain us while we learn..Use of you can work either way depending on the spkr/room..

How did this guy manage to get to the Division contest? This is another awful evaluation speech. At club level, If I had been a General Evaluator, I would have said that "an evalutor is not a speaker. The role requires you to commend and recommend, not use the role to entertain us." Secondly, the evaluator should not use "you" to verbally evalutate the speech. By doing so, you make it a dialogue between the speaker and evaluator. What about the audience? Diabolical evaluation speech.

Too bad we couldn't have seen the Target speech to go with this eval. Strong job though - positive with pointers.

Using "MATTHEW" was a great way to link with the speaker.
