Especially for ESL Students…
Use visual aids. ESL students find this especially useful!
- PowerPoint or a Poster can help the audience “see the words” you might be afraid of pronouncing!
- Attention is off of you!
Write out words phonetically (as they sound).
Writing in your language of origin vs. English? Try it both ways to discover what works best for you.
Talk it through in both languages. Then eventually more and more in English. The idea is to memorize “concepts” and the “order” of your speech.
