Are you animated enough while you speak? / myLot

Iam referring to public speaking or speaking in front of a group of people. Do you think you are an animated speaker, meaning you use gestures a lot and use facial expressions, your voice varying depending on the points you are stressing, etc. I think I am an animated speaker since I use a lot of gestures when I speak in front of a people or anywhere else. I believe that if you don't walk your talk people will soon fall asleep. Have you ever tried speaking in front of a group? If you are a teacher or public speaker, I think this is not a problem, but yet there are teachers who come across as boring because they don't use enough body language to get the lessons understood.

I have spoken to a group of people before and it felt okay. I mean I am not afraid of speaking in public, but I don't love it either.

I think it's more to rhetoric. If you have the skill, people would still listen despite how you move around. Also saying a teacher as boring because they didn't move too much is wrong. It's how you deliver the lessons, not how you move around in class.

Yess at some extent it matters but i think body language also matters
