by Keith Masters

This book guides you through every step of writing and delivering a speech so you never feel lost or unsure. It also clues you in to the little things a lot of people forget—little things that make the difference between a good and great speech. You'll learn how to analyze your audience and how to make your speech uniquely informative and entertaining. This book also helps you show up on the day of your speech ready to go and even tells you what to do afterward. A "cheat sheet" at the end sums up the book's message and gives you a handy guide that takes only a couple of seconds to glance over.ABOUT THE Keith Masters has a bachelor’s degree in English and a master’s degree in special education.

Age of the presenter doesn’t matter. In fact, a few of his thirteen-year-old students would put seasoned businessmen to shame. He has learned tips and tricks that he has applied to himself and passed on to his students. Now it is your turn.
