Section outline

    • The following presentation talks about the general aspects of public speaking like the types, the contexts, and the spheres of communication. It helps learners to grasp what it means by speaking in public.

    • What is your greatest problem when speaking in public?

    • Have a say about the greatest you experienced when speaking in front of public.

      Write your story here and share at least ONE tips to overcome that fear. Then give comments to your friend's story and tips. You can say "I have the same story" or "That happens to me to" or for the tips, you can say "That tips works very well" or simply agreeing "I second that".

      My own fear for example is to mispronounce words that I say.

      What I usually do to overcome that fear is by rehearsing before I speak before public. But sometimes we can't do that like when we have to deliver an improptu speech. It's also good to check the pronunciation of some key words or terms that we are going to use.
