1 Assess Honestly

Take a step back and honestly assess your current public speaking skills. This can be uncomfortable, but it's a necessary starting point. You might record your presentations to review your body language, tone, and pacing, or ask for direct feedback from trusted colleagues or mentors. Understanding your strengths and weaknesses is the first step toward improvement. Remember, this isn't about dwelling on shortcomings; it's about recognizing where there's room for growth.

Firstly, need to understand self-weak point and strengths. Confidence is a weapon for success but it’s true over confident comparing capability is just looser thing. Self-assessment is needed for everyone. Hence, any one can take help by asking his well wishers like friends, colleagues for give genuine feedback about one’s public speaking ability. It really helps someone to find out weak point as well as positive sides. Then, be confident about strengths and work on to polish weakness as well.

Secondly, it’s time to work after assessment on thyself and in this regard, someone can seek assistance to cover required skills. It might be helpful if someone take training under a supervisor or experienced one. Taking training might be in offline or online. It will help to polish one’s publicly speaking style and how to engage audience more effective way. This is not a thing of overnight, consecutive practice will bring an excellent outcome. In my student life, in prior to my class presentation I asked to help my teacher how to maintain speaking with same vibe starting to end. Good to say, I was really blessed with the help of my teacher.

3 Practice Diligently

Practice is the bedrock of public speaking mastery. Start by rehearsing in front of a mirror to become more aware of your gestures and facial expressions. Then, move on to presenting in front of a small, supportive audience, such as family or close colleagues. Use these practice sessions to refine your message, experiment with different techniques, and become more comfortable with your material. The more you practice, the more natural your delivery will become.

Thirdly, after receiving training, practice only the way makes one perfect. At the beginning, it’s suggested to start practice with a specific point standing against a mirror. One can find his body movement, eye normality, hand moving properly okay or not. Besides, video recording is the best one for next practice by which one can identify his real situation. It’s most effective if one can practice with a small group like in front of friends, family members or others. I can remember, when I was in Hon’s third year, I frequently practice my topic in front of my friend whose name Lamia. We mostly practiced beside our university’s museum. Resulting, we scored maximum number in our group-based presentation on public speaking.

Apps and software that provide real-time feedback on aspects such as pace, pitch, and filler word usage can also be invaluable tools. Additionally, familiarize yourself with presentation software to create visually appealing slides that complement and reinforce your message without distracting from it.

Fourthly, to ensure a flawless publicly speak, using of technology is mandatory. If someone make category what he/she is going to share in publicly and can make slide by PowerPoint. It would be more engaging way if someone can add image or video presentation that really related with one’s presentation. Now a days, many software is available in googly paly store that really helpful to make any presentation. As example, I can recall using multimedia projector during my class presentation.
