Why is handheld microphone technique so important for speakers? Have you ever seen someone speak into a handheld microphone and yet been unable to hear them clearly, you’ve probably been tempted to blame the PA system? But what if I told you that the cause of this all too common problem is the presenter’s poor microphone use, not the technology. . Bad microphone technique is like bad breath. 1) Microphone Directionality. 2) Microphone Distance.

At WEV graduation the other night, I noticed that a few of the speakers still could barely be heard, even though they were using a microphone. So I want to reiterate, because without this tip, nothing else you remember about microphone handling matters: You still have to speak up and project your voice, even though you are using a microphone. The microphone can't do all the work. Download my free handout "What To Do With That Pesky Microphone.".

It's probably a good idea to use a microphone if there are more than 30-40 people in a room, but it depends on the venue. The microphone should be close to the speaker's mouth, but not too close. You still need to project your voice even though it is being amplified by the microphone, but you don't have to shout.

If you are speaking in any venue that is larger than an average sized classroom or conference room, I strongly suggest using a microphone to prevent vocal strain. There are two types of microphones you are likely to encounter. This type of microphone usually has a battery pack, which you attach to your waistband, allowing you to move about freely. The second type of microphone is hand held or fixed to a stand or podium.

Public speaking often requires the speaker to use a microphone. The type of microphone you use is dictated by the venue of your event, the purpose of your presentation and the size of your audience. There are three types of microphones: shotgun, handheld and lavaliere. Each type of microphone is described below, along with tips on when to use them.
