This is the speech part of "Speech and Debate." An Extemporaneous Speech is where you only have 30 minutes to research, write, and memorize a 7 minute speech based on current affairs.
In this series my goal is to convert a complete beginner into someone who can write an entire 7 minute speech in 30 minutes and can work towards memorizing it in that time too!
Throughout this session, I will go over the basic structure of an Extemp speech, how substructure plays in, and how to research and memorize effectively. We will do several drills too!
*No prior experience required! Just bring a paper, pen, and preferably a laptop so that you can research!*
