Presentations are probably the most fearful thing for a college student, or maybe its just me? What I aim to do in this blog is to tackle what is the best way to carry an effective presentation, and helping you get over the dreaded public speaking scenario.
Everyone that I've known that has done a presentation have always been totally mortified. People get nervous, fearful, queasy or forgetting where they are in their presentation.
When I was doing my own presentation, I followed these simple texts that helped me
1. be ready for it! Preparing yourself is one of the most important elements of presentations. Practice your presentation, rehearse your lines, and maybe record yourself speaking so you know how sound speaking.
2. be calm! Don't get nervous or anxious, to avoid this you just need to be prepared. Try focus more on the presentation more than the audience
3. use a bit of humour! There's nothing worse than sitting in a room with a monotone presentation. Use humour to lighten the mood, or to break the ice at the start, but don't try to be the next Lee Evans as well.
4. The details! Pay attention to the details, make sure you know your surroundings well so you know where you stand, literally. Plan your presentation and everything else will fall into place!
