Question

What are some examples of clear transitioning statements for an informative speech? A clear period of change from one conditional topic to another while tieing up the previous topic all in one whilst moving to the next. Any ideas or examples for words I can possibly use in my speech?

Answer 1

If you could tell me the topic I could help you more. It’s too general

Answer 2

‘Moving on’
‘On the other hand’
‘While blah blah blah,’

Answer 3

Depends. Could make more if you’re doing like a pro con informative thing

Answer 4

The topic is homeschooling, my thesis is, "Recognizing that many have a misunderstanding of homeschool, it is important that we define what it is, the academic and social opportunities, and the parental opportunities."

Answer 5

Ah okay. Usually transitioning statements should be used when we move on to a different paragraph. Mind you tell me what paragraphs you’re trying to transition between?

Answer 6

That sounds like a pretty cool topic, i’m going through my informative topic for my English 2 class

Answer 7

I haven't totally written out my body paragraphs yet, but I need to write it out as if I'm speaking since it's a public speaking class. But so far I know that my 3 main points are Academic, Social, and Parental opportunities.

So the end of my Academic point/paragraph would have to move on from academics to social. Then social to parental. Then my conclusion which is pretty simple.

What I have written for point 1/Academic is: The general public's idea of homeschooling is that the children that partake in this system are weird, sheltered, close-minded or dropouts. In reality, homeschooled students are some of the most diverse students academically. 67% of homeschooled students successfully graduate from college, have a more pleasant college experience as a graduate, and are more likely to have a higher college GPA. While 61% of public students successfully graduate from college, less of a pleasant experience in college, and an average college GPA. --

That's all I have written down atm, lol

Answer 8

‘While they soar in academics, homeschooled students tend to have a better social outlook in their lives as well!’

Answer 9

That’s one idea. Idk what you’re going to put for social
‘this benefit carries directly over to social opportunities’
since you’re talking about basically simularities in how homeschooling can benefit those three things, you can use statements such as ‘Likewise’, ‘Similarly’, etc.

Answer 10

Or maybe, like
‘Contrary to popular belief, etc etc etc’
‘The stereotype being around of homeschooled students not doing well academically is false.’ (this statement allowed you to dive deep into why. the evidence. I wouldn’t recommend this if you have like a specific amount of words to meet. It kind of cuts short of the intro to your body paragraph)

Answer 11

I always try to make an essay kind of easy for the reader to envision in their shoes. I make it somewhat personal with easy examples to go along, and in my college midterms it’s worked far still. lol.
For example, for the intro, you could be like ‘Alexander is a stay at home student who achieves and excels in all his classes. Alike other students in Alexander’s shoes, this trait is fairly common. [insert the stats about dropout rates here]’ and then you can move on to other supporting arguments beside that drop out rates or whatever . You won’t need much of a transition sentence here.
