To develop strong speaking skills, a speaker must thoroughly prepare for their presentation by practicing their speech in front of a mirror with note cards, and having a clear outline or thesis of their topic in their mind. They should reinforce their main point with relevant examples, tell the examples slowly one by one, and walk around while looking at their audience and using expressions to engage them. The speaker should also speak clearly using appropriate vocabulary, and not worry about occasional mistakes.
