Speaking Strategies

​

1.  Speak clearly: Say what you want to say using easy-to-understand words.
2.  Plan your talk: Think about what you want to say before you start talking and make a list of the main ideas.
3.  Give examples: Give examples that make your ideas easier to understand and relate to.
4.  Talk at a good speed: Talk at a speed that is not too fast or too slow, so everyone can follow what you're saying.
5.  Stand tall and be confident: Stand up straight and talk with confidence, using gestures to help get your message across.
6.  Use the right tone: Choose a tone of voice that fits the situation and the people you're talking to.
7.  Let others talk, too: Ask questions, listen to what others say, and give them a chance to talk.
8.  Show pictures: Use pictures or diagrams to help explain your ideas and keep your audience interested.
