Persuasive Speech Topics

Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience that there is a necessity for Americans to become bilingual.
America has become a bilingual nation since a numerous population of Hispanics have been immigrating to the country. Since the population of Hispanics immigrants is large, Spanish has become American’s second language therefore many companies have Spanish speakers that are able to provide a better customer service. I would like to speak about this topic because as a native Spanish speaker and I can relate to it. I can persuade people to learn a new language and show them the advantages it can bring to their lives. And also show them how important knowing a second language can be.

I believe that people, especially teenagers should be taught how to use protection in school so they won’t have to go through the hardship of having to raise a child at their young
