Tips/Tricks Here
You have all had the experience of listening to a bad speaker; it could have been a teacher, a pastor, a flight attendant, etc. You remember sitting there and the speaker is behaving strangely or in a distracting manner, and they stammer over their words or can't get their point across clearly. You feel embarrassed for them and look at your watch hoping the time will pass quickly for their sake and for yours.
You never want to be the Speaker in that situation, and that's one of the reasons this class exists. But before you can learn some of best tips and tricks for public speaking, we need to first point out the errors so we know what to avoid.
