PREPPING FOR DEBATE 2017: PRESENTATION AND DELIVERY
On the 5th of July, Honsbridge organised lessons
on how to deliver a great speech by a guest instructor, Mr Ranjinath Muniandy. Present are
some Honnets along with Mr Sandeep and Mr Bakhtiar.
The objective of this lesson is to help Honnets improve
their presentation skills in preparation for the Debate Competition. Each
Honnet volunteer to deliver a speech based on any subject of their choice and
Mr. Ranjinath, Mr. Sandeep and Mr. Bakhtiar will provide comments on how to
improve their presentation.
The highlight of the lesson is Wan Hariz, who presents a
moving speech on depression and how he overcomes it by helping those in need.
Mr. Ranjinath, Mr. Sandeep and Mr. Bakhtiar gave commendations, as well as
comments on how to improve on his speech.
The lesson ends with a video presentation about a
Toastmasters International champion, Darren Tay. Darren Tay talks about facing
and dealing with bullies, while wearing a white underwear outside his business suit.
Darren Tay uses humour to disarm the audience and to ease tension while telling
his story about his being bullied and delivering a serious message behind his
speeches. The overall lesson behind the presentation is to know how to deliver
the best speeches by using story and humour to engage the audience.
Hopefully, Mr. Ranjinath's lessons, along with advice by Mr.
Sandeep and Mr. Bakhtiar, would help the Honnets in tackling whatever
challenges they face in the Debate Competition.
We wish the Honnets good luck and goodspeed!
