am teacher Tiffany and today I am going
to teach you exactly how to give a
five-minute speech in English this
lesson will help you speak English more
confidently in front of people are you
ready to learn how
well then let's jump right in giving a
speech is not easy especially when it is
in English but there are 4 easy steps
that can help you give an amazing speech
in English let's begin step 1 the
attention grabber the attention grabber
is the starting point of every speech it
is the step where we get grab and hold
the attention of the audience there are
three types of attention grabbers the
first one is a story for this one you
start off by telling a short story that
connects to your speech and is also
engaging the second one is an
interesting fact for this one you want
to tell an intriguing fact that directly
relates to your topic and the third one
is a question and answer time for this
one your goal is to ask a
thought-provoking question that your
audience will have to actually respond
to this will get them engaged with you
from the beginning so for example if our
speech was about Oprah Winfrey and her
success the three attention grabbers
would be set up like this
remember this section only lasts for one
minute for the story you can give a
story about the success of Oprah Winfrey
one of the most successful women in the
entire world by giving the story behind
her success you will have the
attention of your audience from the very
beginning of your speech for the
interesting fact you can give facts
about the number of successful women
there are in the world who are mothers
and finally for the question and answer
time you can think of two to three
questions to ask the audience about
their definition of success and also who
is the most successful woman they know
next step - the introduction the
introduction is the transition section
that leads directly into the topic of
your speech this step is simple but very
important there are three types of
introductions the first one is general
details for this one you simply give
basic information about the topic the
second one is three main points for this
one you state the three main points of
your speech and the third one is state
your opinion for this one you can give
just your main point on the topic so for
example if our speech was about Bill
Gates and Steve Jobs the three
introductions would be set up like this
remember that this section only lasts
for 1 minute as well for the general
details you could say today I will talk
to you about Bill Gates Bill Gates is
the co-founder of Microsoft which is the
largest PC software company in the world
his work has totally changed technology
so I would like to tell you the three
reasons why I like him
for the three main points you could say
today I would like to discuss why Bill
Gates is the most important man of the
21st century I have three main points
for my opinion first he is a genius
second without him many businesses would
fail and third he is an innovator and
finally for state your opinion you could
say recently there has been a debate
about who is the greatest computer
innovator the debate compares Steve Jobs
to Bill Gates both contributed a lot to
our society but in my opinion Bill Gates
is the greatest computer innovator let
me explain why now let's look at step
three the body the body section is the
place where most of your information
will be located it is basically the meat
of your speech which means that this is
the information that will be most
important for your audience there are
three different ways to write your body
the first one is three details for this
one you choose three details about the
topic and explain each of them in more
detail the second one is three reasons
for this one you give three reasons for
your opinion and explain them also in
detail and the third one is three
examples for this one you give three
examples that support your opinion or
the topic in general so for example if
our speech was about lions the three
different ways to write our body would
be set up like this
remember this section lasts for three
minutes for the three details style you
could give three specific
characteristics of lions and why those
characteristics are
amazing for the three reason style you
could give three reasons why lions are
considered the king of the jungle and
finally for the three example style you
could give three examples stories of
lions and how they behave in their
natural environment finally step four
the conclusion the conclusion is the
very end of your speech and it's quite
important because it will be the last
thing that your audience will remember
there are three types of conclusions
the first one is restate for this one
you simply state your points briefly one
more time the second one is summarized
for this one you summarize your opinion
one more time and the third one is make
a final point for this one you make a
final strong point to emphasize your
opinion remember that this section only
