Hmm... Speeches... I just came back from school being a spokesperson fo a group of British teachers, and I think I can lend you a few tips. First, noone likes long, dry speeches that are only to the point. Add humor, add feeling, it doesn't matter what subject you're presenting. If you're forced to improvise, say the very first thing that comes to mind. Emphasize the meaning of a sentence, not the structure. And never, never look in a blank spot on the wall. Eye contact with just one person in the group will make the whole group feel like you're talking to them all, and will help them listen. Just don't stare at one person for more than 10 seconds or more.
Hmm... I think that's about all you need to know for now- Maybe I'll post more later.
