A Good Presenter

How to deliver an interesting and engaging presentation

The Basics

• Spend time making sure you don’t have technical problems

• Speak up• Be excited! • Talk to your audience

Know What you are Presenting

• You made your presentation– you should know what is on it.

• Try not to look at every slide; instead, look at your audience. Try to look people in the eye.

• Don’t put info on your slides that you don’t understand– it is embarrassing and unprofessional.

Please Talk to Us! • Many presenters read their slides word-for-

word. We all know how to read and don’t need this.

• Talk to your audience– add information that might not be on the slides but relates to the text.

Interact with your Audience

• Ask questions, pass out items… give your audience a way to participate and not sleep during your presentation.
