Public Speaking is a key part in life. It is a skill in life that everyone should know. Public speaking may not seem like it has a use, but if you have to make a speech in front of a crowd, it prepares you. Public speaking to me is helping people build confidence, helping people learn the skill and have the right mindset in making a speech in public. There are many elements to Public speaking such as, standing still, Pacing your speech, projecting your voice, don't move to much and make lots of eye contact. When public speaking you should try not to move a lot, you shouldn't move too much because it will show people you are nervous. Projecting your voice, this is a key element to speaking. the audience is like a judge, it decides if your speech was good(released from all charges) or bad(sentenced to life). You want your audience to hear your speech and so in order for them to hear it, you need to have a big,loud voice, so they can here it. they will get bored and tired if you dont project your voice and keep it soft and quit. Pacing is also very important, you dont want to rush your speech, this will cause the audience to not understand what you are saying to them, it will make them question if they wasted their time listening to your speech. When public speaking, you need to make good eye contact, look around the room at people, dont just stair right at your script. This will show the people you want them to listen and that you appreciate them coming to listen.In my opinion, the three things that are crucial to make a great speech is to: one- time yourself before, you dont want to make it too long and boring, so that the audience will fall asleep. No, you want to make it so that it will keep people awake and interested. another thing is to use some hand gestures. Make it exciting and liven the place up. The last thing is to be relaxed and to have fun. When making a big long speech, the best thing to do is to relax. I believe every speech should have at least one joke in there, only if it is a long speech. i also believe that the best skill in Public speaking is to relax. I believe i could work on, not moving and fitgeditng. i tend to move my arms, feet and hips aswell as fidget slot, wether it be in my pocket or holding my iPad. I believe i could work on projecting my voice and making it jucier. I also think i can work on my eye contact, i think i need to make more eye contact with the audience.
