Public Speaking

Public speaking

Public speaking is oral communication in the form of speeches, lectures, presentations, and other types of public speaking. Public speaking is also defined as "public conversation" which means to speak in front of the crowd as well.

Several types of public speaking:

1. impromptu

Impromptu talk is a type of presentation that is done suddenly without any preparation. In this case the speaker is appointed directly in conveying information to the listeners, without any preparation.

2. Manuscript

Manuscript presentation is a type of presentation where in delivering information, a speaker does it by reading the script. Usually because seeing the text of the speaker forgets his main task, which is to make eye contact with the listener.

3. Memorization (memoriter)

Type of presentation made from memorizing the text provided. Unlike the types of manuscripts, the memoriter does not use the script in its delivery, the speaker only makes preparations by memorizing the text where the contents are about the information to be conveyed.

4. Extraempore

Extempore type is the best type of presentation to be done compared to other types. The speaker prepares the material with an outline only, then at the time of the presentation will be explained in detail.

How to train public speaking and appear in public:

1. General preparation

Public speaking without preparation is like going to war without a weapon. You can be an easy target for the audience. Therefore, make it a habit to prepare carefully before appearing.

2. Preparation of material

The success of speech is largely determined by our authority over the material. No matter how skilled someone is in his field, preparation of the material before speaking still needs to be done. Unless you are asked to appear suddenly. Do not let it become a failure to understand the material and can not answer questions from the audience.

3. Preparations appear

This is related to the way we talk. Basically everyone has a unique style of speaking and when speaking in public. You just need to practice the best version of yourself. No need to try to be someone else. Learn how to speak well, if vocal, appropriate posture, how we move and manage facial expressions.
