The words and phrases of the work should sound natural. To achieve this, a competent arrangement in the text of logical accents, observance at reading of pauses which are defined by author's punctuation marks will help.
Learning to see punctuation symbols and use the right intonation of the voice while voicing the text is another important skill in learning to recite.
It is recommended to practice the expressiveness of reading in front of the mirror. This will help the reader to control his facial expressions, if necessary - add gestures.
