  22. Speaking With Confidence • Accept a moderate amount of nervousness • Speak more often • Rehearse

  23. A way of reducing the anxiety is by becoming more familiar with public speaking by: Taking a speech course Attending a college workshop Joining a community organization that allows you to practice with your peers and instructor. Rehearsing

  24. Rehearsing is vital in making your presentation work. • Not rehearsing can cause complications in your presentation. ( missing note cards, missing slides, technical difficulties, etc.) • Rehearsing minimize complications and insures you and your audience that you know the material. Why rehearse?

  25. Ways to rehearse • Rehearse one your feet in front of a small audience to practice and gain confidence. • Pay attention to your introduction and conclusion. The audience always remember the first and last part of your speech, be effective. • Rehearse in a similar setting, to get a feel for it and explore where you will set all your equipment.

  26. Time to shine • Forget about your nervousness, and focus on your topic and your audience. • If you speak effectively you will congregate attention from your audience and your audience will acknowledge your statements.

  27. Myths • Think rationally about your presentation and performance. • The following three myths are irrational beliefs that can lead to unnecessary hesitation: • Myth 1: A presentation must be perfect • Myth2: It is possible to persuade the entire audience. • Myth 3: The worst will probably happen.

  28. Summary • Choose and use the best delivery type for a given presentation. ( manuscript, memorized, extemporaneous, impromptu) • A good delivery involves effective visual, verbal, and vocal elements. • Verbally, use appropriate vocabulary and pronunciation. • Vocally, use enough volume, variety, and pauses to sound well rehearsed and committed.

  29. Anticipate, clarify, and address questions with respect and without antagonizing the questioner. • Anxiety and nervousness is common and manageable. It can be avoided or minimized by speaking in public often, rehearsing, and thinking rationally.
