Considering five types of speeches

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is a relatively brief article by Diane Windingland on pages 10 and 11 of the November 2024 issue of Toastmaster magazine titled Exploring 5 types of speeches. She discusses informative, persuasive, entertaining, demonstrative, and ceremonial ones, and which is the best type for your goal.

 

What is missing? There is no link to educational material from Toastmasters. But at Toastmasters NZ you can find a .pdf file of the current Pathways Level 3 Project on Persuasive Speaking. And elsewhere from the former Advanced Communication Series you can download .pdf files of The Entertaining Speaker, Speaking to Inform, and Special Occasion Speeches. There is an article about the Special Occasion Speeches manual by Maureen Zappala on pages 22 to 25 of the December 2016 issue of Toastmaster magazine titled It’s a Special Occasion.

 

Also, at the APSU Writing Center for Austin Peay State University you can download .pdf files for Informative Speech, Persuasive Speech, and Demonstrative Speech.

 

Of course, as I blogged about on October 5, 2024 in a post titled Free 2023 e-book on Public Speaking as Performance you can download an e-book with entire chapters on informative, persuasive, and special occasion speeches.
