Ch 10 and 12 speech buddies

                Chapter 10 was all about using audience centered language. I think you can connect your audience centered language by choosing an audience centered topic like we’ve all been taught to already. By choosing a topic that can relate to the audience we should be already using the language that tells the audience why your speech is important to them. The key idea is the path that you choose to do that. Like in the video the guy gave a few examples on how to connect with your audience. A few being humor, using pronouns (I, we ,us), similes, metaphors, something used to visualize your points, ect…

                Chapter 12 I’d like to write a little about a tip that my teacher gave me about the volume and tone of your voice when giving me speech. She told us that it should like a roller coaster and to practice this repeat the phrase “Ding Dong, King Kong, Bing Bong” so we get use moving our voices up and down and not so monotone.  The other part that I liked about the speech buddies is that the girl said that you should be trying to give the best version of your speech and that it won’t be the same every time.  I use to think that your outline was what you had to say to get an “A” but really you just go with what you know.
