  1. Posture Keep your spine straight and rotate your shoulders back. Keep your head steady. Keep both feet flat on the floor and a little apart. Take a walk to the front of the room and say “good morning” to your classmates. GIVING A PRESENTATION

  2. Look directly at your classmates. Looking other places can mean that you are not prepared or did not practice, or are not confident. Look in a partner’s left eye, right eye, face, nose and chin for 4 seconds. Walk to the front of the room, look directly at the class, stand straight and say “Good morning.” LOOKING AT THE AUDIENCE

  3. Smile before you begin talking. Change your facial expressions when you are talking to show the meaning of what you are saying. Don’t wiggle, touch jewelry, play with glasses, touch your hair, hide your hands, or stand frozen. Move naturally as you stand and speak. MOVEMENT

  4. Only use your hands to show: • Size • Enthusiasm for your topic • Symbolic action • Location With a partner: Look happy Squint your eyes Look worried Bite your lip Wrinkle your eyebrows Lick your lips Look interested Look angry Look unhappy Look neutral GESTURES

  5. Concentrate on what the speaker is saying. Don’t look at speakers appearance. Don’t sleep or act bored. Don’t write or talk when others are giving a speech. Don’t leave the room when others are speaking. A GOOD LISTENER

  6. Make your information more interesting and easier to understand and remember. VISUAL AIDS

  7. Don’t turn every sentence into a question. If your voice goes up at the end of a sentence, it sounds like a question and listeners do not think you know what you are talking about. Practice these questions and sentences with a partner. ASKING AND TELLING

  9. Don’t apologize Don’t say you are an expert. Don’t say, “I’m going to tell you about…” Don’t use filler words: you know, you know what I mean, like, um, er, uh, ah, well Give your partner a quick talk about dogs. Try not to use the filler words above. SILENCE
