DITTY

The FREE speaking practice email service

Improve your speaking ability in a minute a day ... free of charge.

Practising impromptu or prepared speaking on a regular basis, even for a minute a day can help improve your speaking and thinking skills.

Subscribe to the DITTY service where you receive two topics a day during weekdays (so you can practise with someone else, should you wish) on a wide variety of subjects, along with suggested techniques for practising. 

The DITTY service is based on a Dale Carnegie principle and has been running since 2002, providing thousands of practice topics to people worldwide.

It is of benefit  to those who would like to improve their speaking skills and their confidence for work, business, education and social situations. It can help when you are in meetings, at network events, in interviews, giving presentations, learning English, attending public speaking groups ... and more.

Sample topics include:

Are women treated differently to men in work when it comes to promotion?

Do you think there are life forms on other planets?

Where is your ideal place for a holiday?

Is 65 a good age to retire? 

The main purpose newspapers exist is…

Look out of the nearest window and describe what the view would have looked like 100 years ago
