Notice Board

🎙Surely one or even many of us think that being a "Public Speaker" is a difficult thing to do because only extroverts or communicative people can do it. But actually, it is not allowed. It's just that what needs to be done is to read more diligently and practice speaking in public. Here I will give tips to improve public speaking. 🎙

1. Have a Clear Message

📮Arranging the points of the material you want to convey is the right way to improve your public speaking skills. No need to memorize every sentence, but explain the outline and sequence of the material clearly so that it is easy to understand.📮

2. Speak to Give

🪄Public Speaking has a purpose to convey ideas and ideas to the audience. Then speak to want to inspire the audience and be able to provide in-depth information so that they will be interested in the material you bring.🪄

3. Pay Attention to Body Language

💃🏻Body language such as movements and expressions must be in line with the material presented. Not only words that the audience receives, but paying attention to body language must also be done. Because the audience will always be comfortable if your delivery is in harmony with body movements. Start practicing public speaking in a relaxed manner and not stiffly when speaking in public.💃🏻

🎤When speaking in public, we need an interesting and accurate topic. Therefore, we need to train ourselves to think critically. You can improve your critical thinking skills by trying this method. 🎤

1. Evaluate Existing Information

💌Like a good millennial generation, when we get information or news about anything, we must examine or confirm the truth of the information or news. Because the information we get is not necessarily true if we don't make sure it's true. Always question the veracity of the information you get. Don't trust anyone until you can prove the truth.💌

2. Ask More Questions That You Don't Understand

🌻Ask other people and yourself questions that you don't understand. One of the questions can be obtained from 5W + 1H.🌻

3. Read More Books

📚Books, especially nonfiction books, are arguments presented in a structured way. There are opening, discussion, and closing sections. There is a theory, examples, implementation section.

A book writer must carry out a very long critical thinking process to be able to produce the book. He must collect existing theories and present them in a structured way. Reading his book means training your mind as you try to understand the arguments he brings.

Find a book that you find difficult to understand and then read slowly until you understand. If the muscles must be trained by exercise, the brain must be trained by reading.📚

4. Hold Small Discussions with Friends

👥When was the last time you discussed a social or political or religious issue with your friends? If you haven't, you should try it as soon as possible.

Discussing something complicated forces you to think harder than usual. You have to recall the theories, research journals, and statistics you've read. You have to listen to your friend's argument and prepare a reply within seconds. There is no more exciting exercise than this.👥
