HOW TO GIVE AN ORAL PRESENTATION IN ENGLISH
Making an oral presentation on any topic is a standard requirement on any course. If the presentation has to be in English, anxiety may arise in those who do not feel fluent in that language. However, by following some basic guidelines, satisfactory results can be achieved:
1. PLANNING:
If the topic is free choice, choose a subject you feel confident about.
Brainstorm the chosen topic for your presentation.
Select the main ideas that will be focus of your presentation, i.e., the relevant points that are most likely to interest the audience.
Plan the number of slides needed for the presentation.
|
2. STRUCTURING:
-
Organise an initial draft with the main ideas already selected, bearing in mind that there should be an Introduction, a Development and a final Conclusion that form a coherent structure.
Design the slides to be used in the presentation: order of contents, selection of photos, drawings, graphs…
|
3. PREPARATION:
-
Write in simple and clear sentences the contents of the presentation considering the time you will be given for your oral presentation.
-
Prepare the necessary slides (you can use applications such as Powerpoint, Prezi, Genially or similar): choose a format and font size that can be easily read by the audience, and add audiovisual content -not excessive- that will make the presentation more interesting.
-
Write some supporting notes with basic ideas and/or an outline to remember during the oral presentation.
-
Prepare all the technological devices (pen-drive, computer, etc.) you will need and, before the presentation, check that they work properly. Have supporting notes available so that you can give the oral presentation without any technology if it fails at the last minute.
-
Anticipate possible questions you may be asked at the end of the presentation and prepare the answers.
-
Memorise your presentation and rehearse it orally as many times as necessary to fit the given time limit.
|
4. ORAL PRESENTATION:
-
It is a good idea to start your presentation with a question or something that will catch the attention or curiosity of your audience.
-
Never read instead of speaking from memory (use your supporting notes if necessary).
-
Speak slowly, vocalise and show interest in what you are saying, pointing out your self-confidence.
These expressions can be useful for your presentation:

Remember that following the above steps is the key to a successful oral presentation.
