What are the guidelines in delivering a declamation piece?

1. Practice is the best!

-you should memorize your piece earlier before the competition, check out you intonations, pronunciations and the right expression.

2. Be you.

-you don't have to impersonate or imitate someone in delivering a piece. You must have an originality so the audience may see a character in you.

3. Relax.

-before and during the competition, you must master comfortable gestures and movements. Don't overwork your voice and body the day before the competition. Avoid unnecessary hand and body movements when performing your piece.

4. Have a strong stance.

-when performing, you need to have a charismatic view from the audience and judges. You need to bring that story that is in you. Deliver you speech with feelings and sincerity.
