Title: My oral on Euthanasia
Post by: ally1784 on March 12, 2021, 07:08:07 pm

Hey, since I'm doing an oral about euthanasia, and if I"m presenting the speech at a protest, I said my audience is the community at the protest, specifically adults. However, my teacher said it was too vague, so who would be my audience?

Hey there!
Your teacher is likely telling you that they want specifics: what age ranges would be at the protest? 12-18? 19-25? 25-40?
When considering where you're speaking: is it a professional environment? Public protest or indoor meeting? What would the gender disparity be? Mostly female? Mostly male? Equal parts of both?
When creating a speech it's really important to be targeting the age ranges/genders with anecdotal examples you know will sway your audience.
