TYPES OF

SPEECHES
 INFORMATIVE SPEECH
“informative” means educational
are speeches that are intended to teach
particular subject matters to a group of
audience.
The audience is expected to learn useful or
interesting things that have to do with
specific topics of interests such as
significant people of today or those from
history, interesting places, or any subject
matters which audience may need.

 PERSUASIVE SPEECH
A speech whose goal is to change the listener’s
opinion, attitude, or belief regarding a certain topic
(usually controversial) by providing materials that
can or will help convince the audience.
It is meant to convince the listeners why the
speaker’s side of the equation is more beneficial.
The speaker’s assertion must be supported by
historical data in the form of statistical results and
experts’ testimonies as well as comparisons and
contrasts (e.g. before and after) between the
speaker’s side and the listener’s side of the equation.

ENTERTAINMENT SPEECH
Entertainment speech is not a comedy
sketch.
The purpose is not only to tell a series of
jokes. Neither is it the purpose of the
speaker to have the audience laughing
throughout the speech. To make the
listeners smile or feel lighthearted after
the speech is enough.
 HOW TO WRITE
ENTERTAINMENT SPEECH?
1. Prepare the backbone. The backbone of
your speech is composed of the main ideas
of a narrative, informative, or persuasive
speech. Your introduction will be a
statement of your thesis – the main idea of
your whole speech. Similarly, your
conclusion will be a creative restatement
of the same thesis.

ENTERTAINMENT SPEECH?
2. For each of your main ideas, add
anecdotes, jokes, witty comments, and other
entertaining remarks that will capture the
audience’s attention.
3. Write your thesis. Turn it into your
introduction by re-expressing it in a way that
is entertaining to your audience. Just as in
writing your other main ideas, you may
express it with an anecdote, joke, witty
comment, or entertaining remarks.

4. Restate your thesis as your conclusion.
Your conclusion need not contain
entertaining remarks. Simply inviting your
audience to accept your conclusion is
enough.
5. Edit your speech for grammar and word
use.
