How can I improve my speaking skills without taking speech class?

March 29th, 2010

I have trouble explaining things. In other words, I have trouble putting my thoughts into words. Often when I talk, I have trouble picking the best words to explain something. Often I choose poor wording and people don’t exactly understand what I was trying to say to them. Also it takes a lot of mental energy for me. Often I have to mentally prepare what I have to tell a person before hand so I can explain things to them effectively. When I write, I don’t have as much of a problem because I have more time to paraphrase what I am trying to say, but when I talk, it’s a struggle. Can you tell me some tips and tricks in what I can do to improve at this? Do you know any exercises I can do to improve my speech? Thank you very much!
