BODY LANGUAGE(SPEAKING TEST)

Anyone can utter a series of words; it is the presenter's personal connection to those words that can bring them to life for the audience. Presenters who care deeply about their material tend to use their entire bodies to support the message. Their gestures are large enough to embrace the listener. They stand tall and lean into the audience right from their feet, as if trying to shorten the distance between their message and the ear of the listener. Their faces express their passion while their eyes connect with the listener, focusing on one person at a time.

GESTURE

Use your hands. They don't belong on your hips or in your pockets or folded across your chest either or held behind your back. Use them-to help emphasize a point, to express emotion, to release tension, and to engage your audience. . The most effective gestures arise from the shoulder, not the wrist or elbow. Shoulder gestures project better across the distance and release more of the presenter's energy.

STANCE

How you sit in front of the invigilator speaks before open your mouth. Your stance can tell the audience that you're happy, scared, confident, or uncomfortable. Audience"read" these messages unthinkingly but unfailingly. Stance speaks. A balanced stance with weight even but slightly forward tends to say that the speaker is engaged with the audience. A slumped stance leaning to one side can says the speaker doesn't care. The feet should point straight ahead, not quite shoulder-width apart. When not gesturing, the hands should sit quietly at the sides of the presenter. Letting the hands fall to the sides between gestures projects ease. These moments of stillness between gestures also have the effect of amplifying the gestures.

FACIAL EXPRESSION

The movements of your eyes, mouth, and facial muscles can build a connection with your audience. Alternatively, they can undermine your every word. Eye focus is the most important element in this process. No part of your facial expression is more important in communicating sincerity and credibility. Nothing else so directly connects you .

The other elements of facial expression can convey the feelings of the presenter, anything from passion for the subject, to depth of concern for the audience.

Try to unfreeze your face right from the start. For example, when you greet the invigilator, smile! You won't want to smile throughout the entire test, but at least at the appropriate moments. It's only on rare occasions that you may need to be somber and serious throughout. Work on your body language-gesture, stance, and facial expression-to make the most of every speaking opportunity.
