How to Make Rapid and Easy Progress in Learning to Speak in Public:
Speak about something that:
a) You have earned the right to talk about through study and experience
b)You are excited about: and
c) You are eager to tell your listeners about.
Presentation Tips:
1. Make brief notes of the interesting things you want to convey to your audience.
2. Don't write out your presentation in full.
3. Never, never, never memorize a talk word for word
4. Fill your presentation with illustrative examples and visuals.
5. Know far more about your subject than you can use.
6. Rehearse your talk by conversing with your friends and family.
7. Instead of worrying about your delivery, find ways of improving it.
8. Don't imitate others, be yourself!
