Making Presentation in English

While making presentation in class alone or together with your friend, you should do you best to provide common and specific information on the topic you’ve chosen. You should also try to do it in the most effective and understandable way. To be successful, it would be better to observe the following recommendations:

- first of all, make a plan which will include the introduction, the body of presentation and the conclusion. Make notes in order to widen every item and not to forget the details;

- usual time frame is 5-7 minutes (for the audience not to feel tired);

- use the words and phrases from the list given below for your classmates to be interested in your topic and not to loose the line of you logic;

- watch the audience (!) and evaluate the impression you produce, emphasize the most important items and even repeat them to make your speech brighter and more attractive;

- always be ready for questions and even initiate them yourself to explain the most difficult for understanding spaces;

- if it is possible, use some pictures, diagrams, video or audio fragments to make your story vivid and alive;

- don’t forget to thank your audience for listening to you.
