​​Many members of Toastmasters face with difficulties with grabbing of attention in the begging of the speech. #tm_tips from Aizhan Zhumabayeva will help you to solve this problem✊🏼

Here are 3 quick methods that will help you to grab the attention:

1️⃣ Open your speech asking a question. Ask simple yes/no questions so that audience can raise hands and get involved.
2️⃣ Use some object: a book, a chair, etc. People will be curious about it and start listening.
3️⃣ Start with well known facts or share facts about you. For example: I am vegetarian, global warming is killing the Earth.

On the photo below winner of Toastmasters International Speech contest 2014 - Dananjaya Hettiarachchi uses rose to grab the attention 🌹

Try at least one of the methods and see how useful it can be!🙌🏼

What does President do at his free time? Plans trips, contests and writes Bible!😱

​​People say that if you don’t look into a listeners you seem a liar. 😬
To make your speech trustworthy read 🆕 #tm_tips from Aizhan Zhumabayeva

Ohhh… I remember first few minutes in my speech: the ground goes under the feet, and, Oh God, do I still have to look at these people? Impossible! I am so nervous!😲

Now I know the secret and I will share it with you:
1️⃣Before you speak, pause and connection with distinct listeners. It means that you should not just look into the crowd but see each and every person 🧐
 2️⃣Maintain eye contact with individuals for 3 to 5 seconds. This is the same practice you naturally follow when engaging in normal one-on-one conversation.  Any longer and you make the other person feel uncomfortable.  Any shorter and you look less than trustworthy⏱
3️⃣ Don’t look into listener’s eyes if he/she isn’t looking and listening at you. This is just wais of time, hold your attention only on those who seem interested in you 👀

Remember to make contact with the audience establish eye contact firstly!🙌🏼
