INTRODUCTION:
- HOOK: Say something to get people interested in your topic. It might be a question ("How many...?" "Have you ever...?" "What's your favourite...?") a statement (a fact, statistics), or a personal anecdote (not too long!).
- MENTION CLEARLY WHAT YOUR TOPIC IS. If you want to, you can also say why you chose this topic.
- You can also mention (briefly!) the PARTS OF YOUR TALK ("First, I'll tell you the history of..., Then I will tell you the kinds of ..., and finally I will mention how...")
BODY:
- Divide your information into PARTS: history, types, advantages, disadvantages, etc.
- With each part, use TRANSITION WORDS (next, and now, firstly, secondly, etc) so the audience will know you are focusing on a new point ("And now I'm going to tell you about the different clothes that people wear for this festival.")
- You can give your opinion about each part ("The food in this festival is delicious, but I think it's good we don't eat it all the time because it's very unhealthy.")
CONCLUSION
- RE-STATE THE MAIN POINTS OF YOUR TALK (Summarise) ("I have told you about..." "I have explained about...")
- GIVE FINAL THOUGHTS: your opinion, advice, or suggest a future course of action
MORE ADVICE:
- Use audiovisuals (at least 3) such as powerpoint, objects, posters, sound, etc, to make your presentation more engaging.
- Don't read from your notes! Use your own words.
