Public Speaking

It usually takes me more than three weeks to prepare a good impromptu speech. ~Mark Twain

Be sincere; be brief; be seated. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt, on speechmaking

The best way to sound like you know what you're talking about is to know what you're talking about. - Author Uknown

Yep, group presentation time. Plus I have a major learning contract final due on public speaking. I'm also giving a speech on Tuesday and unlike Mark Twain I just wrote my speech today, lol. We only found out our topic on Tuesday and I've had homework ever since. Ask me anything on public speaking and I've probably read some theory on 'how to' teach yourself guides lol.

Re: Public Speaking

Thanks Es I'll need all the luck I can get for public speaking.

I'm learning lots, whether I pass everything is another matter... lol. Don't worry, I've only failed one assignment (Lit Review) so far and it's completely okay if I pass the second part of the learning contract (public speaking) because I passed the mid-term exam. Everything else I'm passing well.

Well they do come in quite useful for things. I was only on that site to look up mothers day quotes to make mum a mothers day card. But there were heaps of other ones that were interesting.

Yeah I had a look at it too. Some of them are pretty good. I like the April Fools ones myself.
