Test results:

Now out of the above questions, if you chose point 1 then you gained 5 marks for each, 4 marks for third point and 3 marks for the second. So calculate your scores and study your results below.

From 0 to 15 points. Obviously, you did not have sufficient experience in performing, and therefore, you did not develop stable skills in this kind of activity. There are different techniques of public speaking, you can use them, or you can not imitate anyone. The main thing is self-confidence and constant practice.

From 16 to 36 points. You have an average score. So you are equally familiar with success and failure in this area. Analyze what you are failing, and try not to make such mistakes again. Your performances will become more stable and interesting.

From 37 to 50 points. You have a good grasp of the intricacies of public speaking. Most likely, speaking in front of an audience excites you, communicating with listeners is a pleasure. However, do not succumb to the ease of dialogue with the audience and do not neglect the thorough preparation for the performance. Remember: the best impromptu is the one that is prepared.
