Hi,My name is Rebecca,and in today's lesson.I am going to show you how to give a presentation inEnglish more effectively.Okay?Now,of course giving a presentation is never easy,especially when it is in another language which is not your native language you're going to face some special challenges,And as a corporate trainer who has worked with people frome all over the world,I can tell you that giving a presentation is difficult,but is also one off the most effective ways to improve your English and also to in crease your revel of confidence as a prefessional speaking in English.Okay?So let's look at soome of the stragiesthat you can follow in order to give a presentation that is more sucessful. All right,so I,ve divided the board in to two sections ;the frist part we,ll take a bout things you should not do.So the first thing that you most remember when you're speaking in English and giving a presentation is to use simple language.Many people feel that their English is not good enough and so they try to use very complicated words.Howerver,If you're not comfortable with those wordsor you are not sure of the meaning of those word, It's not going to go over very well. Simple,Clear communication is powerful,so try to remember that point.Ojay?Next:speak sliwly.Because you have an accent and Englush is not your native language,if is going to be a little bit harder forp people to understand you so you need to speak much more slowly than you think.so however slowly you think you are speaking,speak a little more slowly.It will only make it easier for other people to understand exactly what you are saying.Okay?All right The next point is to make sure to have your visuals professionally edited.Make sure that a native English speaker or an editer has checked all your visuals.There is nothing that compromises the professionalism of a presentation more than seeing grammation error or spelling error in the visuals.So make sure to have your visuals professionally edited.The next thing you want to do is to make sure to use more verbs rather than nouns.When you use a lot of nouns it makes.It makes anything that you hear much heavier and difficult to understand.Let me give you a little example of that.Okay?one second.Okay,so for example,If I say: “The delivery of the package took place on sunny afternoon.” That is okay.It is not improssible to understand,but let’s compare it to this. “The post office delivered the package on Sunday afternoon. “It’s much esier in the second example because I used verb rather than nouns.Okay?Next point use action verb rather than passive verb.Let me give you another example “500 apartments were rented by ABC Housing last month. “That’s an example of using passive verb. “500 apartment were rented” ,Right? Let’s contrast that with the active verb. “ABC Housing rented 500 apartments last month” Okay? So you can sec it’s much easier when you use the active verb.The Next point is if possible at all,try to work with a trainer. Try to work with Professional English trainer or a presentation coach who can help you to improve your presentation skill , who can give you feedback on to improve ; what mistakes you’re making,what are your strengths and weaknesses.It will be very,very helpful to you so try to do that if you have the opportunity. Okay? The Next point is to use a lot of transition words in your presentation.This helps your listener to know where you are going. So you can say,for example. “furthermore” , “nevertheless” “on the contrary”. These words explain to your listener what you are trying to say with even more elarity than if you did not use the words, So try to get accustomed to using transition words .Another important point, especially in different parts of the world is to make sure to write down any important number. You need to writte them down so that people can see them clearly and also because in some parts of the world , numbers are described or said in different ways. So fore example : this number is what? “One hundred thousand” , “but in India for examplr they call this “one lakh”. So one lakh is different from saying one hundred thousand, And if your audience is not familiar with the them “one lakh” or with the term “one hundred thousand” then you want to make sure you have witten to number down it is 100% clear, All right? So these are example of thing you should do, now let’s look at some things you should not do. All right? Don’t use abbreviations , or acronyms , or short torm of name of organizations or anything else from your country which other people are not familiar people are not familiar with , Right? Say the entire name and then afterwards you can use the abbreviation once you have explained it. You also want to avoid jargon. Now , what is jargon? Jargon is the special kind of language that people who are in a special , in a particular fied use when they speak to each other. So for example : If you listen to computer guys speaking to each other , you will fell like you landed on another planet because they speak language that only they can understand. So when you are speaking to general audience you want to avoid using jargon. Jut use regular plain English to explain what you mean , that way you will reach more members of your audience. Okay? Also make sure you avoid slang. Even though you might hear native English speakers using slang in their presentation, It’s best that you don’t use it , especially if you are not familiar with how to use it. The worst thing is when we hear non native English speakers using slan in an incorrect way because that doesn’t sound professional at all. All right? And another point to avoid crutch words. Now , what’s a crutch word? For that you have to know. What is a crutch? Well ,crutches are what people use you know , for example if someone has broken their leg , they might use something like this to walk along and they , these crutches , thes sticks support them while they are walking let’s say with a broken leg. Right? Similarly , when people are nervous ,they sometime use sounds instead of words while they are thinking of the right thought or words. So they might say : “Mm , ah , for example , uh like , uh yeah” , and thing like that. These are crutch words and they are often used by people who are not sure what words to say next so avoid crutch words or sounds. Silence is okay of you are thinking. So while you are thinking , try to keep your mouth dosed and avoid these crutch sounds. So these are some basic DOS and Don’ts-right? For giving a presentation in English. There are many other aspects of giving a presentation in English and I’m going to wring some to those for you on the board.
Okay,So here are some other skill that you need to master in order to give a successful presentation in English. You’ll find lots of information on this and other strategies on our website : www.presentationprep.com
