Self introduction speech tutorial including
12 speech topics and a sample
outline
to write a self introduction for if you have to
develop a brief self
introduction that
tells the audience what you want them to know
about you.
In other words: tell who you
are and what you are about. This page deals with
self introduction speech topics for
speech class or other public speaking
speech opportunities in life for a good
first impression.
Another
short speech for introducing yourself is the
elevator speech, meant for business purposes. The
key question for a succesfull and
effective self introduction speech in both
occasions is: how much and
what
information do you want the audience to know about
you?
Rules of Thumb for
Self Introduction Speeches
Rule number
one is: focus on one speech topic. If you have to
come up with a very brief 30, 60 second
or a somewhat longer - two or three
minutes - self introduction, make sharp choices.
Do not write an
award winning boring
autobiography :-)
Due to
the fact you have to write your speech around one
theme, I recommend to develop one aspect of
your life. That aspect will tell who
you are and what you are about. Some people call
this self introduction
speech type a
one-point speech, because it's based on one speech
idea.
12 Sample Self
Introduction Topics
Look at the sample
self introduction speech topics and pick out the
aspects of your personal life you want

and when
questions. That's an effective
way to outline your first thoughts.
1.

That always works in a speech for self
