1.PRACTICE- PRACTICE- PRACTICE!!!
Some Important Tips:
1. Print out a clear and corrected copy of your transcript. Underline or highlight the words that are difficult to pronounce and/or the words that are important and need to be 'emphasized or stressed'.
2.Practice with a partner or practice in front of the mirror.
3. Make sure to 'enunciate' and to 'project your voice' so that the audience can hear you!
4. Practice many times so that you know your part well, and you will not have to depend on your transcript that much. Remember, eye making eye contact and 'connecting' to your audience is important.
5.Coordinate your transcript and PowerPoint so that your presentation 'flows'.
6.REMEMBER TO BRING IN YOUR TRANSCRIPT ON MONDAY FOR A FINAL DRESS REHEARSAL.
