Q: Are we given time to prepare for an extemporaneous
the speech you have researched,speech? YESoutlined, and practiced.
organized,

There are four styles in speech delivery: impromptu, extemporaneous,

manuscript and memorized.

Extemporaneous Speech

 is a carefully prepared and rehearsed speech before actual speaking time.

 uses outline as a guide of the speaker which may include quotations, sources

of the speaker and arrangement of important information.

 delivery is in a conversational manner.

 examples are debate rebuttals and press conference.

Q: Do many people like impromptu speech? YES

Impromptu Speech

 is delivered without notes or a plan, and without any formal preparation which

means no notes, no outline, and no ‘thinking time’ given.

 relies on daily experience, stored knowledge and personal opinion.

 examples are answering questions during a conference.

 is also considered easy since it’s like a conversation type of speech.

Q: Memorized speech seems easy. Is there any disadvantage

of a memorized speech? YES
12
 Memorized Speech

 is a speech delivered from memory without reliance on notes or an outline.

 Speaker completely memorizes his speech.

 However, with less time of preparation, speaker has a tendency to forget what

he/she memorizes or a memory blackout happens caused by nervousness

during the actual delivery which is feared by most of the speaker.

Q: Does manuscript speech allow audience engagement?

NO

Manuscript Speech

 is delivered with a script of the exact words.

 may sound convenient for the speaker; however, it has limited interaction

with the audience.

 Speaker tends to read the script word per word in front of the audience.

Public speaking is an act and an art of making speech before an audience (Nikitina,

2011). However, it is not enough to talk in front of an audience to be an effective

public speaker. You should not only focus on informing the audience and expressing

his thoughts publicly but to let them be moved and find meaning of the message.

So, how to do it? Let us now go through some simple steps to help you get started

using the 4 P’s.

PLAN, PREPARE, PRACTICE, PERFORM

13
Steps in Making and Delivering a Speech
1. Planning your Speech
a. What is your topic?

b. What is the purpose of your speech? (to inform, to persuade, to

entertain, to inspire)

c. Who are your audience?

d. What is your main idea/thesis statement?

Source:

http://webuser.bus.umich.edu/Organizations/umbstoastmasters/file/members/prepare/PlanningSpeech.pdf

2. Preparing for Speech

1. Outline your speech
a. Introduction- The introduction should be short, positive, easy to handle,

generate interest and expectancy and you must feel comfortable with it. It

should create a vivid image and possibly an image that the audience can

identify with. Use hooks and attention grabber which can be:

 Question

 Definition

 Interesting story

 Historical background

 Expression of pleasure

 Personal reference or greetings

 Current event or controversial issues

 Quotation of proverbs, poems or popular statements

b. Body- It is where you can expound further the idea you want to convey to

your listener. It is the heart of your speech. Remember that the audience likes

to be entertained, informed, convinced, and motivated. Try to include some

humor, if appropriate to the topic. It is that part in which your subject matter

14
 should be arranged and developed in a clear, forceful, and interesting manner.

The body should flow naturally that utilize a good organization of ideas. Use

methods to develop the body of your paragraph by:

 narration

 definition

 exposition

 description

 question and answer

 details and enumeration

 illustration and example

 comparison and contrast

 chronological arrangement of facts

c. Conclusion- It is the clinching part. Don’t leave the audience hanging in the

air. You must end your speech with a sense of finality. The functions of

conclusion are to leave an impression to the audience, give them the sense of

satisfaction, and move them to think or act. The conclusion should re-state the

essential message. It should contain the following: a summary of all ideas that

allows the audience to be informed once again of your topic; restatement of the

main idea that includes the purpose of your speech; a clincher or a “call to

action” which tells the audience the role they can play pertaining to the topic.

2. Search for credible source and reference for your speech.

15
a. A source is credible when it is trustworthy. Sometimes it is hard to

determine whether a source is credible or not, as voicing an opinion or

presenting false information as fact without any credentials or proof is

easy for anyone, especially online. Sources can often appear as credible

even when they are not. Here are a few points to consider when evaluating

sources for credibility:

 Be skeptical – Just because something is presented as a fact, it

doesn’t mean that it is. Question everything.

 Examine the source’s and author’s credentials and affiliations –

Always research the background of any source you are considering

using for your speech.

 Evaluate what sources are cited by the author – Always review the

sources listed and make sure they stand up to scrutiny.

 Make sure the source is up-to-date – Make sure that your source is

still relevant and applicable.

 Check the endorsements and reviews that the source received –

Read reviews of books printed on them or the websites of online book

retailers. Check if the author is reputable.

 Check if the publisher of the source is reputable – Always make sure

that the publisher is reputable.

 Beware of bias – Always evaluate if the source presents clear and

unbiased information, or if it aims at persuading you from a specific

view.

Source: https://paperpile.com/g/find-credible-sources/

b. It is important to not only cite the source, but also to restate the author’s

description in your own words. Here are proper ways to cite a source.

16
  Summary: A brief description of longer passage written by the author.

 Paraphrase: A restatement of an idea in roughly the same length as

the author originally described it.

 Quotation: The exact same words as the author used, presented

between quotation marks.

3. Practicing your Speech

1. Practice till you are comfortable and familiar with your speech. Let your

family, relatives and friends hear you out.

2. Ask and listen for feedback and try to apply to improve your speech

delivery.

3. If you want to master impromptu and extemporaneous speech, prepare

speaking prompts. List down topics or current issues that can be

possibly be discussed. Cut them out and do draw lots of the topic, then

try to talk about them following the IBC pattern.

4. Time your speech during practice and learn to manage time on the actual

speech delivery.

Source: https://jerz.setonhill.edu/writing/technical-writing/oral-presentations-tips/

4. Performing your Speech

1. Dress appropriately. Your credibility as a speaker relies on how you

present yourself. Good grooming is a plus.

2. Posture and Gesture. Be positive and confident on stage. Always have

good body posture, gestures, and maintain eye contact with the audience

to establish rapport.

Let Us Reflect

Great job! You have completed the activities and now equipped with knowledge

about speech delivery. You might still think that delivering a speech in public is not

quite easy that you need a lot of confidence and courage to do it. However, it does

not mean you cannot do it. You have just done it, right? You learned that your speech

delivery can make a big impact on an audience in ways that you may not intend. You

also learned that you need to choose a delivery method, determining whether the

speech calls for impromptu, extemporaneous, manuscript, or memorized delivery.
