Public Speaking Tips

Before 

Prepare everything you want to say, make a run through and key points so you will remember during the big day. The type of audience is very important on what kind of speech you will deliver infront of them so be sure that you have a clue on what type of people are going to listen and watch to you speak so it wouldn't turn ugly.

Starting

 First impression lasts and therefore you should appreciate the host and the audience by generally thanking them before starting your speech. It is a good way to be able to grab your listener's ears. Also, you should not start your speech boring. Make a joke or tell them you have an interesting story or even a theory. If you didn't sleep well the night before, if you really worked had for the speech, no one really cares and no one should now. You'll just make them feel guilty about making you a guest speaker. 

During

Remember, your speech was made for the audience and therefore you should respect them throughout the speech. You don't want to talk anti-abortion with women who aborted their soon to be children. They all have to agree and relate to what you are blabbering on stage. You are the speaker and you should take the lead. Your audience will also observe what you are wearing. Always keep minimal make up, ornamental and dress appropriate for the event. Be one of the audience.

After

Wrap out with a good ending that everyone will applaud. Don't let people forger you but make this an advantage that they will always remember you, in a good way. Don't apologize too much about everything. And after that, give your audience a time to ask you questions.
