Use positive body language Balance your body on both legs Keep hands out of the pocket Keep eye contact with the audience Keep a smiling face Change pace / delivery, but not too

Keep the presentation short by focusing on the information
Try to Make the start and end touchy Look cool, calm and feel easy Be clear and audible (Neither shout nor whisper) Deliberately pause at key points – emphasizing the importance of a particular point Use sense of humour
15
Some DON’T’S Don’t lean against the wall Don’t stick to dais
Don’t bend a lot Don’t cross your arms behind your back Don’t repeat the things Don’t rush or talk deliberately slowly (Be natural) Don’t joke – always disastrous unless you are a natural expert Try to end it with quotation

SET UP Go to the class/meeting room early
Check out seating arrangement / sound / visual system Sit on the chair of audience to check out so that the audience may not have any problem

Murphy’s Law If anything can go wrong, it can be any time/ any stage, especially at the last moment (So be ready). If it happens, relax and collect your thoughts again.

ALWAYS REMEMBER! The more prepared you are, the less worried and
more effective you will be.
