Question:

I gave a speech today, and someone said I needed to work on my TONE and PITCH.?

What in the world are they talking about? Can you give crystal clear definitions and examples of each?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: When you're angry or sad or happy, your voice naturally has a different tone. Sometimes it's softer or more harsh. Your pitch changes also with emotion.
When you give a speech you want to appeal to your audience so you should start out with a fairly mellow tone. As you get more involved in your speech then you can change your tone according to how you feel about the topic.
