How to write a speech?
Introduction – The early minutes of a talk are important to establish your credibility and likeability. Personal anecdotes often work well to get things started. This is also where you’ll outline your main points.

Body – Get to the issues you’re there to address, limiting them to five points at most. Then bolster those few points with illustrations, evidence and anecdotes. Be passionate: your conviction can be as persuasive as the appeal of your ideas.

Conclusion – Wrap up with feeling as well as fact. End with something upbeat that will inspire your listeners.

Slide 11 - Woordweb

To make your speech better
-Give it rhythm. A good speech has pacing.
-Vary the sentence structure. Use short sentences. Use occasional long ones to keep the audience alert. Fragments are fine if used sparingly and for emphasis.
-Use the active voice and avoid passive sentences. Active forms of speech make your sentences more powerful.
-Repeat key words and points. Besides helping your audience remember something, repetition builds greater awareness of central points or the main theme.
-Ask rhetorical questions in a way that attracts your listeners’ attention.
-Personal experiences and anecdotes help bolster your points and help you connect with the audience.
-Use quotes. Good quotes work on several levels, forcing the audience to think. Make sure quotes are clearly attributed and said by someone your audience will probably recognize.
