Video lessons

Unfortunately, not everyone has the gift of eloquence, but this does not mean at all that this skill cannot be developed in oneself. We all know that a person who knows how to speak beautifully can be listened to for hours! And yet, it should be noted that there are a considerable number of different nuances that are important to take into account when developing the skill of rich colloquial speech.

It is important to breathe properly when speaking Surely, listening to the smooth speech of the announcer or some charismatic presenter, you caught yourself thinking that you yourself would like to be able to speak like that. Of course, this can be achieved if the technique of speech is developed. However, first of all, for this you should learn how to breathe correctly - deeply, calmly and imperceptibly. Pay attention to the fact that speech breathing is different from ordinary breathing. This is a controlled process. As you know, diaphragmatic-costal breathing is considered the most convenient for speech. In this case, inhalation and exhalation are performed using the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. The most capacious part of the lungs (lower) comes into activity. At the same time, the shoulders and upper chest remain practically motionless. You can learn to control your breathing on your own. Place your palm between the abdomen and chest - on the area of ​​​​the diaphragm. When you inhale, the abdominal wall will rise slightly, the lower part of the chest will expand. Exhalation will be accompanied by a contraction of the muscles of the abdomen and chest. When speaking, the inhalation should be light and short, but the exhalation should be smooth and long (the ratio is approximately one to ten). When the speech process occurs, the value of the exhalation increases to a large extent. Before speaking, it is worth taking a quick and deep breath, which is carried out both through the nose and through the mouth. Meanwhile, only the mouth is involved during speech exhalation. Proper speech breathing can be called the basis of a beautiful sounding voice. If you breathe incorrectly, then this will lead to instability of the voice. Speak confidently, clearly and distinctly When speaking, try to avoid mumbling - speak clearly, distinctly and confidently. Practice reading books aloud - do it slowly and with expression, sometimes speed it up, but keep talking with expression. Gradually, you will develop the habit of this manner of speaking in everyday life. You need to constantly train gestures and facial expressions Gesticulation and facial expressions can be called a non-verbal means of speech, which should also be trained. Try speaking in front of a camera or a mirror to see if you are gesturing too much and "off the mark". Sometimes, this can greatly distract the interlocutor from the topic of conversation. It is also important to observe your facial expressions - both an indifferent facial expression and an excessive display of emotions are unacceptable. In the second case, it may just look ugly. Your gestures and facial expressions should look harmonious, smooth and natural, and only sometimes emphasize the meaning of what was said. It is important that the listener still focuses on the meaning of the text, but not on your face or hands.

Competent? Literacy does not come immediately. Rules and recommendations will not help if you do not read books, if you are not interested in reading.
