(public speaking) Is Your Choppy Speech Putting Your Audience to Sleep? Posted By : The Voice Lady

Choppiness in speaking occurs when you pause too often. And, if they have to wait too often or too long for you to resume your words, they will stop listening. While it is much easier to learn to speak smoothly when reading printed words, it is also just as important to work on your conversational speech. If you find that you are afflicted with choppy speech in conversation, I suggest you record yourself speaking just as if you were talking to someone at the kitchen table or at work. If you are motivated, you can successfully learn to speak smoothly and put an end to your staccato speech forever.
