Activity - Based on what you have learned from this lesson, list down ten habits for good

delivery that a speaker needs to develop.

1 Be conversational — Talk normally so your delivery is relatable and draws in


your audience.
2 Eye contact – If you want to grab the attention of your audience and show
them your message, then connect with them using eye contacts.
3 Control your volume — This should be the same but you need to adapt your
voice with the dimension of people under roof and location.
4 Change your rate of speech – In order to keep the audience engaged, you
should avoid a monotone delivery.
5 Pitch modulate master – Pitch slide your way into more diversity and
emphasis.

6 Pauses – You can make an impact by saying important words and phrases
while pausing between statements.
7 Say it as clearly because if you are confusing the other person and you lose
your credibility.
8 Use fewer fillers – To avoid filler sentences that sound like “um” and “ah”,
reduce your um and ahs so you could be more confident.

10 Wear the right clothes – Wear what suits the occasion, and be professional
and confident.

Activity 1:

Speeches for special occasions are a perfect fit for a memorized speech because they are
short and straightforward. Choose any of the following occasions and write a five-sentence
speech you may deliver in class.
1. Introducing a person
2. Giving a toast during a wedding
3. Presenting an award
4. Accepting an award
5. Giving tribute to a person, place, or event

Toasting at a Wedding
If I could ask you all to raise your glasses please – ladies and gentlemen let me propose a
toast here now, too amazing people that have met with each other. Today is not only a
celebration of their commitment but also a tribute to the beautiful journey they have
decided to travel together. May their love be as infinite as their happiness today and may
they lift one another through every obstacle and success. May they be blessed with a life
filled with happiness, laughter and an unbreakable bond of friendship. To the wedding
couple, may your lives be filled with love and lattes for all time!

Tips and Tricks for an Effective Speech Delivery(ESSAY)

1. Maintaining Positive Attitude


The session also taught one of the best lessons to keep a positive attitude when it comes to
public speaking actions. As fear is a natural human response, positive self-talk was
highlighted as an important remedy to manage anxiety. This change in mindset converts
nerves into motivation, so I can keep the focus on the message instead of on fear. Positive
self-affirmation can help me build my self-image and esteem, mentally running through the
motions of my pitch to excite myself about presenting how I will captivate my audience free
of any negative thought. This attitude goes a long way in keeping you relaxed and confident,
no matter the size of your audience or the stage. In short, a positive attitude is key to great
speeches but also managing any challenges that come up during a presentation.
2. What is Audience Analysis
One of the main points I took away: know your audience so you can deliver your speech
accordingly. It emphasized that knowing the listeners from those aspects enables me to
tailor content and delivery, thus making it easier to connect. By doing this, the message is
more likely to earn personal relevance within the audience and become a brand experience
rather than a memory. Identifying the audience in advance makes decisions surrounding
language difficulty, cultural touch-points, and emotional registers more effective, all of which
are key to establishing rapport. Through knowing their mindset, I am capable of customizing
the speech to be more relatable and relevant thus heightening their openness to my
message. Maybe because considering my audience ultimately allows me to make strategic
decisions that create connection and keep attention.

3. Effective Speech Structure


One other invaluable lesson was how to structure a speech. It highlighted that there should
be a smooth progression, beginning with an introduction, then the body and finally a
conclusion. You have a clear structure in your speech, which makes it easier for the
audience to follow and grasp the key points of the message. Your opening should hook the
reader, and your conclusion provides a memorable closing statement. Having an organised
outline also aids in ensuring that you stay focused while delivering, avoiding tangents while
being clear. But, the way I plan a structure helps me with time management and content
delivery, not boring or overwhelming the audience. Doing so will render my speeches
increasingly cohesive, concise, and logical to an audience.
4. An Example of Use: Repetition as a To Believe Tool
One of my most illuminating ideas was repetition as a technique to try and engrain things in
the listener's memory. I can repeat key phrases or ideas to reinforce the message and make
it more memorable for my audience. Repetitive content is a form of sound reminder and
redundancy gives more chances that the fundamental message will remain in the memory of
your listeners. This works well for complicated subjects, helping with comprehension and
memory. Yet you must exercise moderation to prevent it from seeming repetitive and stale.
Repetition: Incorporating repetition in my speeches can help me to underline its importance
and make the speech more powerful, thus making an impact on the audience.

5. How Practice Allows You to Be Fearless


It hit home that practice is a core stage in the process of letting go of fear and building
ability. Repeating a speech over and type of times helps me to be more familiarized with the
content, or else repetition helps my very own body get better accustomed to using tools
appropriate when speaking. Practicing it multiple times helps me find issues, such as pacing,
tone and gestures. That makes me calmer and more ready, which in turn directly reduces
anxiety. Even more so practicing in front of friends where they will give you constructive
criticism or even recording yourself will make you really aware of the small things that need
to change for a smooth delivery. Regular practice is what I use to control nerves — it makes
me more relaxed and confident.
6. Visual Aids As Tools Of Strategy
I appreciated the practicality of some things discussed in this session, such as the benefits
of using charts or graphs to support and clarify your message as needed. Slides, visual
images, or charts support complexity by simplifying information so that the audience can
process and remember it. However, we should only place it with a purpose so that ultimately
the speech is complemented but not overshadowed on the audience. Strategic positioning
of visuals helps them stay hooked to the presentation while reinforcing the key points.
Visuals provide variety and maintain interest, which is essential for longer presentations.
Applying this technique can make my speeches more energetic and fascinating, allowing for
a visual aid and reinforcing key points.

7. Simplicity in Language
One of the big takeaways from the session was that idea of simplicity, which involves being
simple and neat with language. I can ensure my message is more widely accessible by
steering clear of flowery or esoteric language. This does not mean to sacrifice complexity
for simplicity, but gives the audience a clearer shot to grab what is being thrown their way. It
further helps avoid refuted misunderstandings among the audience and keeps them on their
toes being engaged cognitively without losing attention or comprehension. Simple and
effective speech can express my points effectively that are hard to forget and hard to reject
too. By committing to simplicity, I am making sure that most of my speeches are easy to
approach, articulate and captivating.
8. Concluding with Impact
Lastly, the importance of a strong conclusion where it hits home with your audience. A good
conclusion recaps some of the highlights, reinforces the message and inspires reflection.
That memorable final line or call to action is what makes the speech stick in the audience's
mind long after their time listening has come to an end. A clear, crisp, and thought-provoking
conclusion that is the last word of the speech. A well-rounded conclusion allows me to finish
strong so the speech is that much more impactful, leaving the audience walking away with
something worth taking home.

The Power of Storytelling with Val Amiel Vestil (ESSAY)


I have learned some important points from the asynchronous lesson about public speaking
conducted by Mr. Val Amiel Vestil, which will help me become a better speaker. So here are
eight of the concepts that I find most valuable and they should be given some serious
consideration in terms of practice at future speaking events.
1. Connecting with the Audience
Making a connection with the audience is key to effective communication. According to Mr.
Vestill, All great speakers — regardless of the type or size speech — are focused on building
a connection with their audience. This requires genuine relatability, an invitation to feel
understood — a seventh of the speaker’s attention focused on placing oneself in a listener’s
shoes. A speaker connects with listeners and they pay attention because there is trust,
which makes a speech really great. What I learned from this idea is that connecting with an
audience is much more than just stating facts, but visualizing them as part of the discussion.
2. Matter, Manner, and Method
A major framework that stood out from Mr. Vestil was the “three M’s” – Matter, Manner, and
Method in which these was essential for public speaking skills. Matter is simply the content
of the speech — you can only talk about what you know or care about. Manner refers to the
style of speech such as tones, gestures and expressions, whereas Method concerns the
arrangement and sequence of ideas. These aspects combined serve to provide a balanced
approach for preparing, and delivering speeches. Knowledge about these elements provides
me with a framework to structure my presentations and I know now that both content and
delivery style are equally important in terms of prioritizing the level of engagement.

3. Preparation: The 70-30 Rule


The way of him saying it: successful public speaking is 70% preparation and 30%
presentation. This is a strong reminder of how critical it is to prepare and sequence your
content before putting yourself in front of an audience. He emphasized that preparing
means to do your research, practice with plan and massage it there until you can deliver with
confidence. Speakers who have done their prep work can respond to unexpected queries or
interruptions in stride. This rule has taught me that the best speeches begin with preparation
so meticulously executed, the speaker spends their time during the presentation connecting
with the audience rather than worrying about content.
4. Showing, Not Just Telling
He said that good storytelling is “showing, not telling.” When speakers use vivid examples,
anecdotes, or sensory detail to illustrate their points or create mental images for the
audience, this makes it easier for listeners to understand and relate to the message. As a
way to illustrate his point he gave an example from his childhood, explaining how specific
you have to get and how using certain types of words create a sense of emotion that will
engage your audience. It reframes a speech from collection of sentence into an experience
that you remember. It showed me that every piece of information needs to be as intentional
as it is given or else, they will get lost in translation when received.

5. Contagious Enthusiasm
Another memorable takeaway was in the idea of spreading contagious enthusiasm. Mr.
Vestil suggested that speakers show in interest in their topic goes a long way towards
exciting an audience and overcoming any initial apathy or boredom. If the speaker shows no
interest in the topic, he pointed out, there is no way his listener would be enthused. That
means selecting topics that are really important to the speaker and conveying energy in their
voice, varying their vocal pitch, using gestures and even infusing energy into their body. This
idea will keep me focused on going after topics that interest me because passion is what
will help take a bunch of passive individuals and turn them into excited listeners.
6. Interaction With an Open Question
A tip for making a virtual or in-person speech interactive was Mr. Vestil engaging students
using questions in the chat, whether showing their favorite day of the week, or asking if they
had public speaking experience. It encourages the audience part taking rather than just
listening to a one-way speech, creating an atmosphere of inclusion It also teaches the
speakers about the mood of their audience and how they feel allowing them to change tones
or directions in what they are speaking about if needed. It is a very vital method in large
setups where direct involvement may not be possible as it gives the feeling of onsite
inclusiveness.
7. Sounding Confident Even When You Are NERVOUS
Mr. Vestil spoke about how nervousness is simply a result of human biology and that even
seasoned speakers understand this fact. He offered techniques such as recognition of the
nerves, reframing them to be excitement rather than anxiety. That was reassuring because it
meant that confidence is not feeling nervous per se but instead, managing nerves well. For
me, the key takeaway should be that nerves are natural and can be an energy booster while
delivering the speech; rather than getting carried away by them, I should convert those into
excitement to focus.

8. Communicating: A Skill for Life


Finally, the overall message of the lesson is — communication is a skill that one will use
throughout their life so might as well learn how to do it. Mr. Vestil explained that public
speaking is not one-time event, but a tool through which one can greased the wheels deeper
and wider with all relationships around. With this viewpoint, I started to see practice for
public speaking as an investment in my future and could look at each time I spoke as a way
to get better. That mindset encourages me to continue learning, because I know that
communicating can take you far in life, personal and professional.

No Notes Needed with Leo Aribal (ESSAY)


1. What is Impromptu Speaking and Why It Matters
Impromptu speaking — a type of public speaking with little or no time to prepare. It means
providing an organized response on the spot. This will benefit any situation including job
interviews, classroom presentations when you are asked to speak unexpectedly or in just a
simple conversation. Just replying to random questions or topics on the spot, mastering
impromptu speaking gives you the confidence of responding well in high-pressure
environments. This skill can only help you in your personal and professional life. You will
learn how to communicate better and get complete messages across in as few words as
possible. It also helps you to cultivate your flexibility because you have to listen and respond
quickly to many questions or scenarios that may not be predictable. Impromptu speaking is
an useful skill, because this will allow you to speak your idea with spontaneous way and
bring out the best presentation yet you will understand there should be composure under
pressure also. To cut a long story short, what makes this kind of public speaking especially
powerful is the assurance it instills in each person as well as to prepare them for real life
experiences. This means that learning and training for extemporaneous speaking can play a
significant role in making one an effective orator.
2. The perils of absence preparation and the importance of getting ready
One insight that I pulled from the lesson is how spontaneity follows preparation for
impromptu speaking. Impromptu speaking by definition is little to no earlier preparation, so if
you have done your research and have the basics down on multiple topics that are relevant
to you, this means that as long as you never truly go into a topic blind then all should be well.
The video examples demonstrate that not adequately understanding the topic can result in
wrong answers or the potential for criticism. During a job interview, a classroom defence, or
even in pageants — this is especially dangerous when answers can't wait! Its response may
then become incoherent, inaccurate, or irrelevant to the audience perception without proper
preparation. It really reinforces that although the question or topic might not be known to
you until a day, two days or even minutes before an interview — having a broad foundation of
knowledge helps lessen the risk of providing an awful answer. If you are prepared, you will
also have greater assurance in yourself as the chances of having a frozen moment or
panicking when someone asks to speak with no notice is minimized. So even general
preparation is a safety net for unexpected situations.
3. The PREP Method for Structuring Answers
An important tool introduced in the lesson is PREP (Point, Reason, Example, Point), which
provides a simple framework for to-the-point responses in an impromptu gift. The 1st ‘P’ is
the Point or Opening, which directs the course of response. Reason (R): This is the logical
basis for your point. E is for examples that illustrate and support the point being made.
Lastly, the third and final “P” is a reference to the P — giving some closure that links back to
what was stated at the beginning. This structure helps introduce clarity but also to ensure
that responses are comprehensive and persuasive. The PREP method is also helpful for
someone getting ready to speak in front of others as it ensures a structured and cohesive
flow. Besides, an example will substantiate the reply as listeners receive a glimpse of what
you are referring to. This is especially useful in situations where speakers have to respond
spontaneously, assuring that they answer the question in its entirety.

4. Identifying Common Scenarios That Call for Impromptu Speech Writing


Tips given in the lesson bring out that impromptu speaking is something which comes often
in semi-formal and informal settings. Things like classroom presentations, job interviews,
wedding speeches and pageant questions. Identifying these scenarios allows individuals to
prepare their minds in situations whereby where spontaneous speeches will take place. Until
people have experience it becomes anxious as you don't know when things happen without
a plan, preparing your mind to respond is the art whenever you are learn to focus over this
aspect. It is useful for anyone who wants to better their public speaking because it teaches
you to prepare for impromptu speaking. Additionally, knowing general impromptu situations
gives speakers the opportunity to practice relevant skills so that they are more at ease when
they find themselves in actual time-sensitive situations. Practicing in environments that
mimic expected spontaneous moments limits both context and development for the speaker
but combining practice with adaptation fosters resilience and develops their confidence.
When they are also able to identify the common impromptu contexts, they can adjust their
responses according to the audience and make themselves more effective.
5. Overcoming Glossophobia or Getting Over the Fear of Public Speaking
A lot of people suffer from what is known as glossophobia or the fear of public speaking
generally and it only gets worse when you apply the idea of impromptu speaking on top of
that! In this lesson, you learn how to deal with this fear by confronting it. Other methods,
such as deep breathing before speaking, visualizing success or that moment in a positive
way, and using affirmative self-talk can relieve pre-speech anxiety. Frequent practice in a
supportive environment also helps to desensitize one from the inherent fear of public
speaking. To address anxiety, it is important to understand the source of that anxiety
whether it is fear of judgment or uncertainty. The same goes for confidence — and the
lesson also states that over time, exposure to public speaking can build your confidence. By
preparing for the worst, that “deer-in-the-headlights” moment is less likely (my phrase) and
speakers can feel a sense of calm and composure rather than freaking out. In the end,
overcoming glossophobia is a process made gradually easier in each minor impromptu
speech successfully executed.
6. Lessons Learned — Doing Well or Not in Impromptu Speaking
The lesson contains excerpts of impromptu speeches from pageants that highlight the
imperfect but also often effective nature of speaking off the cuff. Seeing those who hit and
miss gives you good lessons on how an impromptu speech is really done. Tor example,
examples that are calm, confident and correct need only to avoid the pitfalls. But the
essence of these examples is that whilst impromptu speaking inherent a lack of previous
preparation, knowledge and confidence does have its place here as well alongside
structured responses to scattered thoughts. The lesson also emphasizes strengthening your
constructive reflection of past performances and areas for development. From these
examples, individuals can see where their strengths and weaknesses are situated — thus
adapting and building off of the successful strategies when they go to speak. Watching
examples is one of the most bright ways to learn what makes confident, well-informed
answers different from flailing, uninformed disaster ones.

7. Similar to building confidence in public speaking — practice makes perfect.


Confidence is the key to speaking off-the-cuff—and confidence comes from practice.
Activities like mock interviews, practice questions or short public speeches will help you gain
poise. Rehearsing  impromptu responses in a safe space can mimic the pressure felt in
real scenarios, and they become less overwhelming as you gain experience. Even with
practice, students should be encouraged to engage in everyday conversations and blow-by-
blow discussions that call for spontaneous thinking. Doing this on a regular basis makes it
easier for speakers to quickly structure their thoughts and speak them into existence. It
becomes easier not to feel intimidated speaking off-the-cuff; the more you do it, the less
scary it feels — and comfort with a format builds confidence. The writer assures that
speakers appear more credible and graceful, and this should influence the listener positively.

8. Why Should One Stay Aware and Considerate about the Audience?
Finally, if a person is aware of the audience and context to have an effective impromptu
speech? The lesson discusses impromptu scenarios: classrooms, job interviews, pageants
and more—it all comes with different audiences and expectations. By directing your
response with the audience in mind, you will hone your message with awareness and
deference making it that much more effective. This contextual sensitivity guarantees that
the speaker focus on to speaker audience(s) needs and expectations, result deeper
persuasive speech. Also seeing the audience can allow speakers to modify their tone, pace
and message in a more spontaneously real time way. In considering the audience, speakers
also avoid unnecessary details or overly complicated language — they keep their message
concise and to the point. This one is especially helpful for teachers, presenters and leaders
who often speak in public. Knowing the audience and context will make the speaker connect
better with the listener, thus giving more impact to his impromptu speech.
