Presentation basics

Focus on delivery craft so your audience can follow along.

During presentation

  • Slow down — especially when nerves spike.
  • Use deliberate, measured speech.
  • Be intentional with pauses to let concepts land.

PowerPoint tips

  • Use PowerPoint Presenter mode. Use a virtual desktop if you need to switch between PowerPoint and other applications.
  • Exit Presenter mode: press Escape.
  • Restart from current slide: press Shift+F5.
