In Wikipedia Website said, 'Public speaking is speaking to a group of people in a structured, deliberate manner intended to inform, influence, or entertain the listeners.'

The appropriate body languages produce an interesting oration. Eye-contact is the most importance body language which all of speakers would have. Audiences will pay better attention to you if you look at them while you speak. If you are not confident enough, you may think their heads are only turnips and cabbages. Hand gestures are frequently used while you are speaking. You should move your hands sometimes, but not always to cause natural speaking. For example, raise one finger up when you said one, or open wide your hands when you mentioned to all audiences. Do not stand still even you speak on serious topic. The stage belongs to you, utilize it. You should walk around the stage to catch all of audiences. Using body language can help you overcome your nervousness and deliver a better speech.
Without any speaking skills, even the best title of the world can be boring. Good speakers open a speech with a dramatic statement and end with an impression that makes the audiences want to applaud. Do not open like you do not know exactly what you will say, you will be less reliable. Your ending should give useful properties, such as motto or suggestion. Many famous speakers make an excellent rhythm and know when they should pause for audiences' reaction.

Lastly, good delivers know which part has to stressed or unstressed for breaking down boring. Imagine you are listening to monotone speech, would you like to sleep?

Once there was a speaker who had never spoken in front of a lot of people had competed in the Provincial Speech Contest. She had thought she could not do it as well as another student who had brought the victory for the school. She had to prepare and practice speaking skills with appropriate gestures and appearances within four weeks. When the day came, there were many rivals with their qualified speaking who she would compete with. Anyway, her first public speaking, applauses occurred around the hall as soon as she had finished that did not happen to every competitor, and she is me!
