Types of Speeches
⚫On the Spot Speech

⚫Prepared Speeches
Manuscript
Memorized
Extemporaneous
IMPROMPTU
⚫The speaker is given no time to prepare
for the speech; he or she is given a topic
and must immediately begin speaking on
it.
⚫This speaking style involves thinking on
one’s feet and being able to plan the flow
of the speech as the speaker is giving it.
How to Construct your Impromptu
Speech
● Opening
- Open by addressing the guests, judges, etc.
- Brief introduction/opening sentence
• Body
- Cover the main points
- Use clearly worded simple sentences and
link the theme/s
• Closing
- Be brief and look for an elegant closing
that links back to the theme
Sources of Content
● Description
- Explaining the WHs and H
- Using the senses of sight, smell, sound, etc.
• Illustration
- True story
- Fictional story or character
- Personal experiences
• Facts
- Evidences, examples, statistics, current
events
Strategies in Organizing
and Delivering an
Impromptu Speech
Past, Present, Future Model
Example: “Robin, how’s your European initiative
going?”
“Brett, thanks for asking. Five years ago we were

getting our foot in the door in Europe. Today we
have five subsidiaries in Germany and
Switzerland. Looking ahead – we anticipate
growing our brand in the United Kingdom and
Italy. I’m excited about how our vision is
becoming a reality.”
PREP Method
Point: I love Facebook
Reason: I have two reasons for this one: one, it
helps me easily reconnect with old friends; and
two, I’m updated on the happenings around me.
Example: Through Facebook, I’m able to contact
my old friend from other countries and reminisce
about wonderful memories. Also, through posts
on FB, I learn about the current events in the
country.
Point: Facebook, indeed, is a useful social network
site. That is why I love it.
Rule of Three
Example:
• Opening
• Rule of Three: Giving your main 3
points/steps/ways)
• Closing
Bridging
This entails building a connection between
what you do know and what you do not know.
Example: “I would imagine the conflict in

Israel to be like a conflict in my own self. The
following are some steps that I observed in
patching up the conflict, which, in a micro
level, may be considered important for
everybody…”
Rephrasing
It is rephrasing or redefining the topic into
something that you want to talk about. If you
are given a topic that you do no like or is not
right for you, don’t despair. Simply reframe it
as a topic you would like to respond to.
Example:
“This question reminds me of the
complexities in differentiating two concepts in
science. These are natural science and social
science. Just like democratic and
parliamentary, these two differ of concepts
and processes….”
Playing Devil’s Advocate
It refers to you standing on the opposite
side.
Example:
“Instead of allocating more money to
national defense, why not allow it to
education? Let me tell you why education
should be prioritized…”
C.A.R. Strategy
● Challenge — State the

problem.
● Action — Offer a solution.
● Result — Cast a vision for

the post-problem future.
Prepared Speeches
⚫The most common type of speech is a
prepared speech.
⚫For a prepared speech, the speaker has
been:
(1) Given the topic in advance
(2) Had time to do background research on it
(3) Had practiced the delivery of the speech
* Preparation does not necessarily mean
memorizing every word.
Prepared Speeches
⚫Extemporaneous – often delivered with
the aid of note cards to help the speaker
remember key point and content order.
Prepared Speeches
⚫Memorized – recited from memory
without the aid of scripts or cue cards.
Prepared Speeches
⚫Manuscript – the entire speech written
out for reference. The speaker reads the
speech verbatim from prepared written
text containing the entire speech.
Lesson Summary
⚫The impromptu speech. This is a speech
that has no advanced planning or practice,
like a toast at a wedding.
⚫The extemporaneous speech involves the

speaker's use of notes and some
embellishment to deliver a speech.
⚫Some speakers use a manuscript speech.

This is a delivery where the speaker reads
every word from a pre-written speech.
⚫Lastly, a memorized speech is the act of

memorizing the information in a speech
and presenting it without using notes.
Let’s Practice!
⚫What is the difference
between knowledge and
wisdom?
⚫How to become
productive at school?
⚫Children should not play
video games.
How did you spend
your summer
holiday?
What is your most
embarrassing
experience? Why?
What must be changed
in our current
educational system in
the Philippines?
If you were an
animal, what would
you be? Why?
Give three steps on
how we can
eliminate plastic
waste in school?
