Four Tips/Pieces of
Advice I Gave My Children for Talking to a Class/Public Speaking
1. Deaf
grandmother- speak up, speak a bit louder than usual, slow your rate of
speech down a bit, slower than usual
2. Good dog!-
energetic tone, energy in your voice, animated, avoid monotone
3. Magic eye
– eye contact, right between the eyes
4. Wavy hands- hand gestures, be careful of pacing
It gets easier with practice.
TIP/HINT: If you see a presenter that you like, copy some
aspects of their style.
