This video made me realise that the best way to deliver a presentation is not to try and look professional but to be as relaxed and calm as possible and just be yourself. This video helped me land my dream job. Thank you.

Hello, fellow new and semi-experienced public speakers. I've been a public speaker for decades and although I'm not interested in making a video about it I thought I'd share some knowledge on what I've learned.
Public speaking is a skill you can learn just like you first learned to ride a two-wheeled bike. To learn how to ride a bike you first needed to assemble all the ingredients. [A bike, road or driveway, helmet, maybe knee and elbow pads.] The same is true of public speaking. My experience as a speaker as well as studying other speakers has taught me the four main ingredients needed to give a good presentation. They are:
#1] Be comfortable and relaxed. [Duh!] I'll explain how to easily master that.
#2] Have respect for your audience. Be sure you are giving them, leaving them with, something of value.
#3] Know your subject! You have no right to get up and speak if your knowledge on the subject is less than at least the human average. Study! You don't need to be an expert but earn your right to publically speak about the subject you've chosen.
#4] Put yourself into your delivery. BE YOURSELF! Honestly, you'll never please everyone but if you try to be someone that you're not, you'll probably end up pleasing no one. Just be your honest self and let the chips fall where they may.
Those are the 4 top points I'd recommend. The 4 ingredients that make up a good speech and speaker. Obviously, there are other tips like write your speech and be sure to edit it a few times. Make your speech tight and fast. I'll write a three-page speech and by the time I've condensed my thoughts and edited it, I'll be down to a single page. Tight, fast, and hard-hitting. Your audience deserves no less. I always end a talk with a take-home gift for the audience if possible. Most of my speeches are on science-based self-manipulation practices. So it's easy to offer a take-home gift that if the information is used at home it will improve their lives. Get creative, create a gift. If you are not yet experienced in public speaking you'll need to PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, your speech at least 10 times over 3 to 5 days. After the first day, your subconscious will start working on it and better prepare you for your second day of practice. It's a lot of work but so was learning to ride your bike at the beginning. Later in your career, you'll pick up your bike at a moment's notice and just ride it naturally.
Okay, so this is the tip that will have you standing comfortably and relaxed while speaking in front of any sized audience. The hardest part to overcome for public speaking is in standing up, breathing, and thinking all at the same time. Everything else can be put together, assembled, or prepared beforehand but how can you prepare yourself to be comfortable and relaxed? Before even choosing your subject, writing/editing your speech, or committing to giving a talk, practice the following exercise. Remember, what we want to achieve is to have you standing up, speaking, breathing, and feeling comfortable all at the same time.
#1] to give a good speech one must know their subject.
[Everyone knows their ABCs and everyone can count to 60.]
#2] Get professionally dressed up, as you would when you're doing the real thing.
#3] Stand in your living room, face the couch, and slowly recite your ABCs.
[Pronounce each letter as if it were a word. Use body language, use emotions.]
#4] Recite your ABCs, then count out loud to 60, then recite your ABCs again.
The purpose of this exercise is to get you up on your feet learning how to stand, breathe, talk, and feel relaxed all at the same time. Eventually, your speech will replace your ABCs and counting out loud to 60. If you've done your homework you'll be able to pull it off just as easily. As a bonus, if you can, assemble a few friends who also want to learn this skill you can take turns doing this in front of each other. Listen to each other and offer each other advice on how to improve. If alone, practice your hand and body movements, making eye contact with the couch, and make some occasional pauses in your already fully memorized ABC/count to 60 speech. Within days you'll feel so much more comfortable standing up and speaking out loud.
Sorry to say but even after decades of public speaking I still get a nervous rush before every talk but that nervousness - completely dissipates - as soon as I start talking. Public speaking is just another skill anyone can master if willing to do the work.
Hope this helps. :)

The biggest problem is fighting off nervousness which he didn't have to do with either presentation so this does not address the biggest obstacle to a good presentation feeling nervousness and anxiety.

[aishwaryar]

He is an excellent teacher. He helped him where he did wrong ( Conveyed it politely) and he appreciated when he improved. Wow what a great Teacher he is!

[midwinterstars]

Me while waiting for my turn : overly confident that I can do an ✨excellent✨ presentation.

Me while presentating : uh? What is it again? *blank

[enough]

The way the professor reacted to the presentation was amazing

[thejaziephru]

The first one is me everytime I do a presentation😂😂

[jmlee]

I was once taught very interesting story about presentation skills. I was taught that the key part of good presentation is not about the content itself but how you handle it. You want to be the person who controls the flow and atmosphere of the room when you are present in front of the people. It is hard to be comfortable in front of public so you need to practice for it. After that I realized that my lack of confidence is rooted from my lack of practicing.

[jealoussphynx]

Teachers like him always inspire me to be a teacher.

[Ali-elih]

First topic was history. Second topic was stress. Oh gee I wonder why the second presentation was better, surely it had nothing to do with the topics being more relatable/easy to understand.

[aymanhalim]

Gladly, Ranjit got a teacher to support a teacher to highlight his problems in a constructive way and the teacher didn't even underestimate him . Instead the teacher encouraged him to give presentation for the next time.
I just anticipate that I get a mentor like this in my life.

[rainLhes]

i could listen to the professor read through all the terms and conditions and still have a great time listening to it. the way he speaks is calming yet clear at the same time!

[rahuldas]

[aashi]

I can't think of a way to tell a personal story for my presentation on ancient china tomorrow.
Me tomorrow* A thousand years ago me and my family went to china

[FollowingThisRoadofAsphalt]

I gave a presentation today on the HIV . I agree I didn't have that much background knowledge on the topic, so answering the questions was a bit difficult and they were not up to the mark either.Our teacher didn't hear my whole presentation, cause there was a error in my poster and told me that she expected better from me.At first, I felt too sad about it and was not ready to face anyone.Now that I have seen this video, I understand how important it is to have good background knowledge on the thing you are speaking about.Thank you.

[liviu]

I've done about 10 presentation, overall in a group, the first I couldn't breathe properly, then it got easier, I cool look at people more and spoke louder and more confidence, the key is practise and being aware of your mistakes, also I uncontrollably volunteered to present first, always.

[saimasofi]

This is what a real teacher is. Great job Sir, its teacher's success which reflects through his/her students.🌼

[gunjan]

I did a presentation today and the first part was good. I made eye contact and talked about my topic well but at the end I ended up rambling and stuttering and some questions I didn’t know how to answer. Now I think I failed :(

I wanna get better but it’s hard not to get nervous when you know others are judging your every move.

[himadrigoyal]

For the good presentation - we have to take full knowledge about that topic which we have to present in class 🤓
This create a more confidence in ourselves ☺
