CMST 2220
Public Speaking Tips
1. Know your material. Pick a topic you are interested in. Use humor appropriately, personal stories, and conversational language – that way you won’t easily forget what to say.
2. Practice. Practice. Practice! Rehearse out loud in front of someone with all equipment you plan on using. Revise as necessary. Work to control filler words – “um, uh”. Practice with a timer and remember to pause and breathe!
3. Relax. Beginby addressing the audience, this buys you time and calms your nerves.Pause, smile, and count to three before saying anything. ("One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand. Pause. Begin.) Transform nervous energy into enthusiasm.
4. Visualize yourself giving your speech. Imagine yourself speaking, your voice loud, clear and confident (self-fulfilling prophecy). Visualize the audience clapping – it will boost your confidence!
5. Realize that people want you to succeed. Audiences want you to be interesting, stimulating, informative, and entertaining. They’re rooting for you!
6. Don’t apologize for any nervousness or problem – the audience probably never noticed it.
7. Concentrate on the message – not the medium. Focus your attention away from your own anxieties and concentrate on your message and your audience.
8. Eye Contact. The best way to effectively use eye contact during your speech is to make eye contact! Though that may be difficult for some people, it's really important to connect with your audience. Find friendly faces in the audience and connect with them.
9. Gestures. Gestures should be natural and represent what you are feeling and thinking at that moment. Remember to also vary your gestures so that you do not bore the audience.
10. Posture and Movement. Your posture is also important. A slouching posture may indicate that you lack self confidence, or that you are uninterested in what you are talking about.
11. Your stance. A neutral stance is usually best. Movement is dependent on your situation and is encouraged if you feel comfortable.
12. Head nodding. Positive head nodding can be perceived positively, showing your audience that you are interested in them. Match your head nod to what you want your audience to feel.
13. Facial expressions. It's important to be aware of your facial expressions. Make sure you use your facial expressions to reinforce what you are thinking or feeling.
14. Always remember to smile at the audience. This helps relax you and helps the audience warm up to you. Plus it gives positive vibes out to your audience members!
15. Paralanguage. Make sure to use variety in your tone, pitch, and emphasis on words. Be sure to use a high volume and a slow rate of speed.
