Public Speaking Training: Public Speaking Course Tips - The Four Methods of Delivery

In some occasions, you may be asked to render a public speaking speech for a specific audience. Even though you are not really comfortable about the thought of speaking to an audience, you are left without a choice but to deliver one, anyway.
When saying No is not an option for you, think of being able to speak in public as a great privilege as well as an opportunity to be heard.

So, how comfortable or uncomfortable are you with speaking in front of an audience? How should you deliver your public speaking speech in front of a crowd who will inevitably pass some judgment over your performance? Below are the four methods of delivery in public speaking:

1. Reading Your Public speaking speech. Unless you are having problems with your eyesight or you are not the one preparing your own public speaking speech, this is the easiest and the most convenient method in delivering a public speaking speech because you don't have to worry about mental blocks and unorganized public speaking speech. If you have problems with your eyesight, then you are at the risk of not being able to read your public speaking speech properly. It is also easy to get lost in your public speaking speech especially if you had asked someone else to write it for you. There are times when reading your piece is acceptable. For example, if you are tasked to do an invocation or a short opening prayer, you may want to prepare it ahead and read it in front of people who may not be able to notice you reading from a copy because they are bowing down their heads. It is also acceptable for an official, for example, to read from a copy especially if there are a lot points in the public speaking speech that require the accuracy in the delivery.

2. Relying On Your Memory. Committing and delivering your public speaking speech from memory will make or unmake you as a speaker. When done right and in a not so obvious manner, you can give your audience the impression that you are really well versed on the subject of your public speaking speech or presentation. However, if you rely on your memory and it failed, you are likely to can become the subject of ridicule, fun and embarrassment to your audience.

3. Rendering An Impromptu. This is a popular method of public speaking speech delivery wherein the speaker is usually asked to make an unrehearsed public speaking speech. If you are the spontaneous type of person and especially if you are asked to speak on a subject that you definitely have personal knowledge and experience about, you will usually not have a hard time rendering an impromptu.

4. Rendering An Extemporaneous Public speaking speech. This is more or less related to impromptu public speaking speech because the speaker has little or no time to rehearse or prepare for a public speaking speech. Oftentimes, an extemporaneous public speaking speech is held as a form of competition among students in order to encourage them to formulate their thoughts, ideas and opinion about a common topic of interest and concern.
