Description
At some time or other most of us have to make a presentation of some sort. Speaking to an audience can be a very challenging experience in one’s own language, let alone in a foreign one.
Presenting addresses both the skills and the language required for giving effective presentations.
The six units cover:
– The first few minutes.
– Using equipment.
– Organising what you want to say.
– Maintaining interest.
– Dealing with problems and questions.
– Summarising and concluding.
Presenting provides six core units, each containing these sections:
– “warmer” to raise awareness of the skills involved in effective communication and to introduce different strategies for developing these skills.
– “presentation and practice” of core language connected to each skill.
– “over to you”, which allows students to apply what they have learned to their real-life work situation.
