Within each chunk you’ll want to identify a word that’s more important than the others that really helps convey your message. STEP 3: Be aware of your pace. When you say the stressed words, make sure to hold the vowel(s) in the stressed word a little bit longer. Doing this creates a distinct pace. Listen to me say the paragraph again and notice when I speed up and slow down. STEP 4: Practice, Practice, Practice! Chunking, might feel too exaggerated at first, but keep practicing! The more you practice, the more natural you’ll start chunking. Great speakers make their presentations or speeches sound effortless, but it always takes a lot of practice. I hope you enjoyed watching Part 2 of Chunking! Let me know in the comment section below if you have any questions!
