How should I prepare for a presentation?

- Organize your presentation logically
- Practice every day the week before (if possible)
- Don’t procrastinate
- Know your audience
- Adjust your presentation to meet the needs of your audience
- Be positive
- Record yourself while you are practicing
- Re-watch the presentation
- Focus on your eye contact, tone, pace, gestures
- Ask for peer/parental feedback
