Test your Speaking Pace
Practice reading a transcript aloud at different paces to better understand how different speeds sound.
Description
The pace at which you speak can have a dramatic effect on your audience. Some speakers talk way too fast, making it hard to understand what they are saying, while others speak too slowly, causing the audience to switch off.
In this exercise, you will better understand how different speaking paces sound.
Start by selecting a speed to speak at, for example, 160 words per minute. The speech transcript will then start scrolling at this set speed, forcing you to speak at this pace.
Repeat the exercise at different speeds, allowing you to compare how a change in speaking pace can dramatically alter how you sound.
