Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that hard. Here are some simple steps to make preparations. Firstly, ask yourself the purpose of your speech. Why are you speaking? Secondly, collect as many facts as you can on your subject.Thirdly, spend enough time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow.
