What Is It
The video you watched gave you a glimpse of one of the widely used kinds of
speech- the impromptu speech.

This is Good to Know
Cohesion is very important aspect of academic writing because it
immediately affects the tone of your writing. Although some instructions
may say that you will lose points if the tone of your writing is too casual or
sloppy 9a diary- type of writing of choppy sentences will make the tone of
your writing too casual for academic writing).
Cohesive writing refers to the connection of your ideas both at the sentence
level and the paragraph level.
Rising from your seat and speak can be a challenge you can deal with
given the knowledge on how to organize your ideas.
Here are some tips you can use the next time you are called to make an
Impromptu Speech.
1. Decide quickly what your one message will be.
2. Do not try to memorize what you will say.
3. Start off strong and with confidence.
4. Decide on your transitions from one point to the other.
5. Maintain eye contact with the audience.
6. Occasionally throw in an off-the-cuff remark.
7. Finally, have a good conclusion.
With only little time consideration, you may remember to use the PREP
Strategy:
9
• State your POINT
• Give REASONS
• Cite EXAMPLES
• Go back to the POINT
Aside from organizing ideas, there are non- verbal behaviors that you
should know and you can use to enhance your communication skills.
1. Use of Voice- The use of intonation and pauses that convey meaning
and attitude.
2. Volume- Volume depends on the needs of the situation, purpose and
audience. There are times when loud voices are required such as in a
play, or during assembly. There are also times when quiet voices are
necessary such as working in the library. Generally, speaking a voice
should be loud enough that the intended audience can hear and
understand the message being delivered. The use of varying volume will
help to create emphasis or drama when recounting events, telling a
story or persuading an audience.
3. Intonation- Intonation indicates the changes in speech; a downward
intonation indicates that a message is complete, while an upward
intonation indicates a question.
4. Juncture- Juncture is the manner in which words come together and
a connection is made.
5. Stress- Stress is an accent, the relative prominence of a syllable or
musical note.
6. Pitch- Pitch is useful to use when expressing emotion. Our pitch rises
when we are excited and lowers when we are sad.
7. Pauses- Pauses are moments of silence between phrases, used to
separate ideas, and also used for holding attention. This is particularly
useful when giving formal presentations such as an oral report or telling
a story.
8. Pronunciation- Pronunciation refers to the way words are said. Some
younger pupils may have difficulty in pronouncing the sounds in some
words and will benefit from hearing those words modeled in meaningful
10
contexts. Pronunciation varies across regions. It is important that
pupils know the accepted pronunciation of words in Standard English.
9. Proximity- Proximity is the amount of personal space between people
who are talking. The relationship between them, their personalities, and
their culture or whether the situation is personal, social, or public will
all affect the amount of proximity needed.
10. Eye Contact- Eye Contact is the use of the eyes or gaze in face
to face communication. The level of eye contact often depends on the
relationship between the communicators and affects both the speaker
and the listener.
You are now ready to apply what you have learned. Let go of your
worries about speeches and brace yourself with the new speaking
challenges.

Organize Your Speech
Good speech organization is essential if your audience is to understand
your presentation. You must take time to put your ideas together in an
orderly manner. You can organize your speech in several different ways;
choose the outline that best suits your topic. The opening should catch the
audience’s attention, the body must support the idea you want to convey,
and the conclusion should reinforce your ideas and be memorable.
Transitions between thoughts should be smooth.
Bearing in mind these tips, you can now deliver your impromptu
speech.
Directions: Choose one topic below and deliver a two-minute
impromptu speech about it. Record your speech for evaluation based on the
criteria given below.
