Practice impromptu speaking

Impromptu speaking - Table Topics, in Toastmasters terms - is the skill of organizing your thoughts and speaking clearly with almost no prep. It's what carries you through job interviews, Q&A sessions, and being put on the spot in a meeting. The way to get good at it is simple: do lots of short reps under mild time pressure.

A reliable structure helps. Try point-reason-example-point: state your answer, give one reason, back it with a quick example, then restate your point. Use the prep window to pick that single angle, then just start talking. Aim for a clear beginning, middle, and end rather than saying everything you know.
