Public speaking 101

My current challenges in Public Speaking
I could identify three main weaknesses on me:

1. Body language: I can explain clearly ideas but when I do a speech, my body sometimes doesn’t connect with my words. It’s common that I don’t do well-justified movements.
2. Rising and falling intonation: When I speak my tone is neutral for that reason (sometimes) the audience wouldn’t pay attention to my speech.
3. Facial expressions: It’s difficult to me express my feelings through my face. I would like to connect my fluent words with my gestures.

My current challenges:

• I am affraid to talk in public.
• I haven’t a big vocabulary.
• I need more practice to develop my speaking

My current challenges are:
Making powerfull speeches
Talk concise and precise
Add the perfect dose of emotions

I get nervous, so it becomes difficult for me to articulate thoughts and ideas.

• In my mother language, I’m a good speaker. However, in English, it’s hard to explain my ideas fluidly.
• At the beginning of my presentation about the topic I want to teach of course I feel nervous and I speak really quickly but with some minutes I into the flow and everything it’s easier than the beginning.

I still can’t talk looking at the camera, actually talking virtually is my biggest challenge
I think I have areas for improvement when teaching face-to-face courses

My actual challenge is to develop better communication skills in order to communicate a 90% of my ideas in English and Spanish, because I’m not planing to have too many speeches, but I’m a Journalist and I really want to communicate myself in the most clear and understandable way.

• To Explain, simplify or summarize complex or long ideas in a good manner in order to be clear for my audience.

• To Catch the attention of my audience or receptors and maintain them gripped with my ideas (Using tricks like good tone of voice, avoid pet words or pet phrases and also a good rhythm in my speech or ideas).

2. i need improve my vocabulary and social skills

I could identify that sometimes when I’m speaking the other person didn’t listen to me.

As a spanish native speaker i think that my biggest fear it is to not be able to communicate my ideas in properly in the english language. But I also believe that it is a challenge that i am working on.

• Struggles with my memory 😭.

• Practice the power of humor with several attendes.

I think my challenge is: not to forget every idea I want to share.

• I truly don’t have a bad time when I must to public speak but when someone rise their hand ask something I get nervous because I am not quite sure if I will have the answer so it’s difficult when that happens
• When people are talking and checking their watch the clock it’s terrifying because it seems that when I am talking is not interesting, so I lost the attention and start to ramble

It gives me anxiety when I have to talk to somebody, I can stutter; but, my body language it’s ok, also my vocabulary,. My pronunciation is fine, I need to practice more, but I’m on the way to get it.

I need to work in my breathing. I need to make pauses. I need to speak more fresh. I need to speak like when I speak with my friends.
❤️

One of my biggest challenges is to control my anxiety before and during speaking in public. When I get nervous I forget what I was about to say, even if I had it already in my mind.
And due to this anxiety, I start mixing words and not being fluent at all.

My current challenges in public speaking

I think I should improve my habilities in rising and falling intonation, because in some moments I don’t make the intonation correctly. On the other hand I guess that I improve my listening and reading skills because it refine my knowledge, if I haven’t topics or ideas to discuss, I can’t make a great speech

My current speaking challenge are:

1. Lack of body language: I know that it is very important to express an idea and be sure that we are sharing what we want to.
2. Intonation: Do not talk at the same level, use low and high pitch.
3. Lack of confidence: I need to practice more to be confident talking in a crowd and in front of a camera. And avoid talking fast, and do to connect with people, expressing my ideas and message accurately.

My current challenges in public speaking

• I’m afraid of speaking in public
• Lack of ideas and creativity when thinking of a topic to talk about
• Lack of confidence

• I have limited vocabulary.
• A long time ago since I speak in public (in my native language)
• I have no experiences talking in public/video in another language.
  . I’m not a fluent speaker

My weaknesses on me :
I am affraid to talk in public (spanish or english), that’s my strong weakness
I haven’t a huge vocabulary
Sometimes the ideas in my head aren’t clearly

My current challenges in Public Speaking:

‎
1. Articulating my thoughts.

• Whenever I’m going to give a presentation, I might have an idea of what I want to say, but somehow it’s hard to put them into perspective.

‎
2. Body Language.

• Once I already have what I want to say, I have no idea of where to put myself or what to do with my body while speaking. Nowadays it’s not that hard due to video calls, but when I have to stand up, I have no clue what to do.

‎
3. Speed.

• I’ve noticed that I tend to speak kinda fast and sometimes this whether makes me run out of air, makes my message harder to understand or I forget what to say cause I’m always thinking of the next idea.

I mainly struggle with body language and breath management, especially in English. When speaking in Spanish, however, I tend to move a lot, but my intonation is mostly neutral. And about fears and stuff like that, those feelings are long gone, fortunately.

Those are my current challenges in public speaking:

1. Entonation. I talk really soft and it is very dificcult for me to make falling and rising tones.
2. Body comunication: Sometimes, I’m seem like a robot. I have difficulties with movements and facial expresion to complement the comunnication process.
3. To be afraid. I’m really afraid to public speacking. I guess it happens because I’m afraid of being wrong in front of more people.

I could identify these challenges:
1. To speak in public
2. To demonstrate more info with my expressions and hands
3. Be more emotional in my speech

I have several challenges in speaking English and I want to improve it with this course.

• Have the capacity to communicate my ideas clearly and concisely.
• Do my best to pronounce the English words better and sounds more native.
• And the last one, sound more fluent when speaking.
