Practice Your Spoken English Via Presentations

How to practice your oral English and make you do not afraid of open your mouth to speak it out

? Maybe you are looking for a way to make it. In my opinion, presentation is the best way. Here, we're going to consider the value of the 'presentation' in achieving this.

The advantages in giving presentations: It is a good opportunity to practice unaided speaking and it gives others good listening practice. It can also increase the presenting student's confidence when using English. It can also be good practice for the real situation for you when actually need to give presentations in English in your professional lives

I. Let's make it clear what is 'presentation':

A short talk by one or more person to a group of people introducing and describing a particular subject Here we are considering, not so much the 'presentation' as an end in itself as the use of presentations for speaking practice.

Whether you will be keen to give presentations will depend on various factors. Your level is one. From intermediate upwards, you should derive real benefit from this type of activity. Culture is another. Some nationalities are quite used to speaking in public and may be only too happy to have the opportunity to practice their spoken English in this way. Other nationalities are much more reserved and will be reticent or downright unwilling. At the individual level, a student who is an expert on something of great interest may be keener to talk than one who apparently has nothing to talk about. Only you can judge your situation. It may be necessary to introduce the idea of presentations with tact. Imposing a presentation will probably be counter-productive. Asking, suggesting, implanting the idea are more likely to be productive approaches.

II. Choice of Subject

The first question that goes through your head is 'What will I talk about?' may be hobbies, professional activities, past holidays etc. Rarely you may find yourself is a professional sky-diver, brain surgeon or stand-up comedian. Yet, with a little prompting, you will often find you have an interest or skill that is particular to you.

III. Presentation Resources

A number of ELT course books deal with the languages and art of presentation giving. There is a particularly useful chapter in 'Business Class' by David Cotton & Sue Robbins. You'll find useful presentation vocabulary at English Club Business English.

IV. Preparation

Without doubt, preparation is the key element of any presentation. Give yourself plenty of time to prepare. It will give you confidence in the way. You can use any time you could to prepare the presentation.

V. The Presentation

You can prepare some notes or keywords. Just relax yourself while you are making the presentation. Speak out the things you want to say. You will find that you can do it without any difficulty.

VI. Using Video

You can record your presentation by video. After you make it, you can listen to it to find the errors in your presentation. In this way, you can practice your listening at the same time.
