Presentation skills #02
 Speak clearly, firmly and confidently as this makes you sound in control. Don't speak too quickly, you are likely to speed up and raise the pitch of your voice when nervous. Give the audience time to absorb each point. Don't talk in a monotone the whole time. Lift your head up and address your words to someone near the back of audience. If you think people at the back can't hear, ask them.
 Use silence to emphasize points. Before you make a key point pause: this tells the audience that something important is coming. It's also the hallmark of a confident speaker as only these are happy with silences. Nervous speakers tend to gabble on trying to fill every little gap.
 Keep within the allotted time for your presentation.  Delivering the presentation within time is the most important.Neither take more time nor go away before time.  Take along a wristwatch to help you keep track of time – the assessor may cut you off as soon as you have used the time allocated, whether or not you have finished .
 Eye contact is crucial to holding the attention of your audience.  Look at everyone in the audience from time to time, not just at your notes or at the PowerPoint slides.  Try to involve everyone, not just those directly in front of you.  Walk around a little and gesture with your hands.  Bad presenters keep their hands on the podium or in their pockets!.  Don't stand in one place glued to the spot hiding behind the podium! Good presenters will walk from side to side and look at different parts of the audience.
 t can be very helpful to practice at home in front of a mirror.  You can also record your presentation and play it back to yourself: don't judge yourself harshly when you replay this - we always notice our bad points and not the good when hearing or seeing a recording or ourselves! Time how long your talk takes.  Run through the talk a few times with a friend.  It's normal to be a little nervous. This is a good thing as it will make you more energized.  Many people have a fear of speaking in public. Practicing will make sure that you are not too anxious.  In your mind, visualise yourself giving a confident successful performance.  Take a few deep slow breaths before your talk starts and make a conscious effort to speak slowly and clearly.
 Build variety into the talk and break it up into sections: apparently, the average person has a three minute attention span!
