As in every language, it boils down to highlighting the significant part of speech, namely, the words that hold the essential meaning. You can trap your audience by combining pitch, volume or length <strong>to spotlight the key words<\/strong> in your talk. Particularly, when it comes to polishing your discourse, pauses are significantly important. It is always useful putting in halts and stops around ideas, usually after a key word, as a way to emphasize the most important thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>Attendees were really proactive and shared their own experiences about learning how to shape their tone. As Ms. May said to conclude the session, <b>the secret is to\u00a0<strong>keep up the\u00a0<\/strong>practising<\/b>.
