Understanding Your Audience An audience is a group of listeners who have come together to listen to either a spoken word watch a movie or any other act that involves their listening aspect (Catherine et al 79). In this case, understanding your audience is a lager aspect of collecting down a speech of the audiences’ interest or in other words for the speech to be delivered in a proper manner some aspects of the audiences’ beliefs level of understanding (Catherine et al 56). Attitudes are matters to be considered. Speeches differ with the audience on approach. The mood and emotional tone completely differ to help pass a message to the case audience. Using a case study on a graduation speech. Its main purpose is to pass some wisdom and advice to the graduates of what they are to face in the outside world. Moreover it should be a speech of hope. From the graduates side the speech should involve anything in your experiences in school, your school challenges and did they make you stronger or what were their impact in your life what achievements did you accomplish in school life that encourage you more (Catherine et al 98). To start the speech up you need to have some startup humor to bring people’s attention closer to listen to your speech. Remember to do your memories in order for example from the time you started school and the flow to the time you finished. Before presentation reread your speech more and more. This helps in internalizing most part of the speech in order to have closer engagement with your audience this is all different when giving a talk to class mates it helps in future public speaking. It helps one gather courage and confidence for approach for more confidence. As much as stage fright is normal and has to be self-motivated. More importantly understand your audience reduce your anxiety by proper preparation focus on what you are saying but not how you are saying it to avoid confusion of points and for the flow of the speech. When giving out a class presentation speech do a proper search about the topic, use all the sources available for the presentation and while doing that write don what is necessary for the final copy. Rehearse your speech more and more by writing down your speech more and more to catch up with what you need to present. Then practice your speech more often before the main presentation. Then the presentation day, stand straight and be relaxed compose yourself before you stars and having eye to eye contact with your audience. In conclusion both instances are intense but tone wise they are different in class is a research but at the ceremony it’s an experience hence the mode is on happiness but all in class are concentrated faces on serious points to note for reference (Courage et al 154).
