- Synopsis
-
Why do so many people fear public speaking? Maybe it’s because they feel like they have to become someone else, someone smarter and funnier. If people can learn to relax and just be themselves, public speaking can be easier. Not perfect, but better.
Sensory aids and stories really help.
Audiences want speakers who are more natural and conversational, so let’s pretend we are with a bunch of friends and we’re all excited about something, and we want to share it: “Hey, guys, you won’t believe what I just learned!” In other words, be normal and try to just talk like you talk.
Talk Like You Talk has many helpful hints and clever mnemonic tools to help the reader become a more natural speaker. Students say it is fun to read and that it truly reduces the fear of speaking.
