Essay number 2:

Write your own tips to be successful perform your presentation when Ma’am Rina ask you to
do so in front of class.
Hints:

Introduction paragraph:
Presentation is one of the things to test your speaking skills to many people. A good
presentation is a presentation that can convey the right message to many people.
Everyone must have good presentation skills because everyone will be required to be able to
speak in public like a presentation in front of a class

Points of Tips:

1. Prepare Well

In conveying good and precise information in a presentation, it is very necessary to prepare

well. The preparation is to maintain health by paying attention to diet so that stamina is
maintained in making presentations.

2. Pay attention to the intonation, tone of voice and volume of voice

If you make a presentation in a flat voice without expression, it will make the audience
decline to listen to what is being conveyed. Use intonation and tone of voice to draw the
audience to focus on the person presenting. Do not use a volume that is too soft and too loud.
Make sure the voice can be heard clearly.

3. Master the Material

Before making a presentation, prepare the material very carefully. If you have mastered the
material, the audience will pay more attention to what is being conveyed. Avoid viewing
presentation slides that will make the audience get bored quickly.

One of the things that can be done is to reread the material that has been prepared and make a
question and answer simulation. This will minimize the answers that the audience will ask
cannot be answered and will also be able to master the material well.

4. Don't be stiff and panic

When presenting, don't just be stiff and silent like a statue. Walking or moving on stage will
make you look relaxed but serious.

Closing Paragraph:

Those are 4 tips that you can follow in order to make a good presentationThe point is, no
human can become a reliable presenter all of a sudden. All of them require practice and time
for adequate evaluation.What you need to remember is to stay calm and confident. That way,
it is guaranteed that your presentation will succeed in capturing the hearts of the audience.
