Ensuring that your students understand the topic you are talking about is vital to making public speaking effective. Keeping the language used simple will make it easier for learners to understand the content.


2. Use powerful body language

You can present yourself as a confident public speaker by preparing and organizing your teaching material before the presentation, whether that be ensuring you print off any material that is necessary for advance, creating cue cards to help you navigate your presentation or even arriving early for your speech.


3. Eliminate filler words

Filler words do not add value, if anything, they can reduce fluidity. Commonly used words “like,” “well,” “so,” and “okay” are included in the filler words category.
