What do you think makes a good or a bad presentation?

Classic Presentation Style

This is very important. Think about the audience, they will be asking: Is this interesting, why am I here? Surveys show that the audience decides if they are interested in the first seven seconds. So the first seven seconds must be good!

Start and finish with a bang: Use a famous quote, tell a story, or ask a questione.g. “Is it better to be proactive or reactive?’; “My dream is to put a computer on every desk and in every home … “ Bill Gates.

Know the audience: Who are you presenting to? What do the audience know? What do they expect from you? Is English their second language?

Know your material: Make sure you know the subject in detail. Practice your presentation and deliver it naturally. Don’t read from notes. Keep it clear and make sure it has a structure.

Concentrate on your message: The central theme (in the title) must be linked to every point you make.

Use good linking and signaling: Tell the audience that you have finished one point and you are now moving onto the next one. Lead them from point to point.

Body language: Breathe slowly and don’t speak quickly, it will sound nervous. Have good posture, control your hands, make eye contact with different people in the audience, be enthusiastic … smile! Smile! SMILE!
