As part of your final marks this term, you will have to give an oral presentation to the rest of the class about a topic of your choice: a sport, a film, a book, a country, a trip, a band, a TV series, a brand-name, a star...
Your presentation must take between 5-10 minutes and it should have some visual or audiovisual support.
It is very important that you follow the tips below:
Oral
Presentations: Do's & Don'ts
- Be organized! The more organized and focused your
presentation is, the more relaxed you'll feel.
- Breathe! (It helps you relax.)
- Don't try to cover too much material. Remember
you only have 5-10 minutes.
- Don't overwrite your visual presentation. Remember this is an oral presentation.
- Do speak clearly, slowly and at an
appropriate level for your audience.
- Use vocabulary that is appropriate
for your audience. If you use new vocabulary, make sure you explain it and
write it on the board.
- Do make eye contact with all members of
your audience.
- Do move around.
- Do use hand gestures.
- Do allow the audience to ask questions at
the end of your presentation.
- Don't read your presentation. You can use short notes, but
reading a presentation is unnatural; also, it makes it very difficult for
your audience to follow.
- Do practice your presentation with a
partner or in front of the mirror.
- Do remember to thank your audience.
Read through these guidelines, too.
You will be evaluated by your classmates as well as by your teacher on this Peer Evaluation Sheet.
