How To Speak Clearly and
Spontaneously
1. Take a deep breath before you start speaking, so that your lungswon't run out of air.
2Practiceenunciating your words.
3Speak more slowly. You have no idea how helpful it is to give your wordsan extra second or two to fully come out of your mouth. Pausing also works,because pausing allows the person you're speaking to, to digest all of thewords you've just said.
4Practice your grammar. If your grammar is bad, your thoughts and ideasmay not be perceived clearly. It also helps to read a wide range of books toexpand your vocabulary. Inserting a few appropriate, intellectual words hereand there can make you seem smarter. But beware, if used incorrectly or outof context, you will not be taken seriously.
5Learn some vocabulary. Learning the right words to say certain things is
also very helpful.

Another Tips How to Speak Clearly And
Spontaneously
1.
Stand up straight. Even if you're nervous, good posture will help to give the impression
ofconfidence. Good posture also helps to keep your airways open, so your breath can bestronger.2.Avoid nervousness. People who speak fast do it because they are not confident, or they are nervous.Pretend not to be nervous and this will make you speak at normal speed.
3.Don't be afraid to say the wrong thing. You might; everyone does. Just correct yourself or move on. Itis a skill and some people are extremely gifted at it. If you need to practice, realize it is a skill that youaren't particularly strong in but is something you can learn.4.Open your mouth wider as you talk. Not as much sound will come out if it has to snake pastyour closed teeth and lips first.
5.Articulate. Make sure you actually stop the air for consonants like 't' and 'b'. Differentiate between your
vowels..6.Slow down. Talking too fast is a common symptom of nervousness, but it won't help your words beunderstood.7.Speak up. Aim to speak at least a little bit louder. You will automatically use more breathand you will probably slow down and articulate better in the process.
8Practice. Talk into a tape recorder or use your computer with a microphone. Then, listen to yourrecordings. Do take the opportunity to notice what is unintelligible, where your sentences trail off, and so
on.9.Listen to others who are good at speaking, such as radio and television announcers, andnotice how they pronounce words, at what speed they talk, and so on.
10.Speak with inflection. Questions should go up in pitch at the end. Statements should go down.Notice, also, what syllables and words get emphasis. Try exaggerating your inflection, the wayyou would if you were reading to a small child and hamming it up a little bit.11.Support from your diaphragm. Use the muscles in your stomach to support your breath as
you speak. Even if you speak no more loudly, you will speak more clearly this way. Place ahand over your stomach, just below your ribs. You should feel the muscles there move as youspeak.
