7 Little Tricks to Public Speaking

January 13, 2009

As a general rule, public speaking can be a little bit nerve-racking.  Even writing the first blog entry for speech class is unnerving.  Although this is so, it gave me inspiration as to what I should be writing. After Googling the words ‘nerves and public speaking’ I came across an article entitled “7 Little Tricks To Speak In Public.”  After reading through it, I decided that it was probably pretty reliable considering that most of it made sense or even that we had already spoken about it.  For example, eye contact and visual aids are both mentioned.

If anyone is interested in a little help in the nervousness department, read 7 Little Tricks to Speak in Public by Mohamad Zaki
