Avoid announcement like: “Today I am going to tell you a story about…” Instead, just do it.
Make sure that the purpose of your story/claim is clear without making an announcement like “The story I am going to tell you today is going to illustrate how much of an animal lover I am.”
Be sure that you can tell your story in the allotted time (2-4 min)
Choose a single image that you can project at some point during your speech that will aid in your storytelling.
