How to Write a Speech

Every once in a while, we will be required to make a speech. This could be in class, during certain events in our normal course of life, or even at work. Therefore, it is important that we are all equipped with the basic skills of how to write a good speech and how to present it as well.

When writing a speech, there are key things of which one must take note. Firstly, there is the topic of the speech, and its intended message. Secondly, is the type of audience. The target audience has a great influence on the tone of the speech, words used, and even the length of the speech. For instance, one cannot use the same tone when speaking to a board of directors as would be used when speaking to a class of students.

How to Write a Book Review

You will be called on to write many reports and papers in college or at a university. One of these is a book review, which you shouldn’t confuse with a book report. In a book report, you describe the book, its characters, and plot; however, in a book review you must also provide a critique of the book as well. A book review will be used, not to show an instructor that you have read and understand a book, but instead it will be used to determine whether a book is a good choice for inclusion in a report, as a source for some research you are conducting, or in a library or collection.

Just like a book report, before writing a book review, you should first read the book! Make notes along the way about positive and negative aspects of the book. If you are reviewing the book for inclusion as a source for a study or report, your notes should focus on aspects that have to do with your research. You may also want to read some outside commentaries or reviews to see if there are points that others bring out that you might have missed. Be sure to cite these sources if you use them in your review. Continue reading How to Write a Book Review
