Practice scenarios

Public speaking & life events practice scenarios

You have to speak in front of people. Maybe it's a best man speech, a maid of honor toast, a eulogy for your grandparent, or a retirement send-off for a coworker. Maybe it's a valedictorian graduation speech, an award acceptance, or a conference talk with an expert in the front row. This category also has a budget ask to a CFO, a big idea talk with a skeptical parent listening, and an impromptu speaking drill. Each scenario is a practice conversation. You talk out loud or type against an AI character. That character pushes back. The best man talks with the bride's grandmother. The maid of honor talks with the groom's uncle. The eulogy speaker talks with Rosa's younger brother. After you finish, you see what landed and one line to say better. Pick the event that's coming up for you. If none is close, start with the impromptu drill to warm up.

How do I choose which public speaking scenario to practice first?

If you're honoring someone who died, try the eulogy for a grandparent. If you need to persuade at work, try the budget ask to the CFO or the big idea talk. No event soon? Use the impromptu drill.
