How to start a presentation is just as important as the ending of one. The opening or beginning of your speech often determines how long the audience will “tune in” to your presentation. If you bore your audience right from the start, you already lost them. You need a strong intro or a strong opening line to grab the attention from the very beginning.

    1. Thinking about our opening lines in advance can also help reduce presentation nerves and make the rest of the presentation easier for both the speaker and the listener. Thanks for sharing 🌟

  1. A simple and to the point. An attention grabber is a cornerstone in your presentation success. One of my very best presentations was in a general public political meeting where I started about a story of a football match that ended an hour before my presentation and I linked it to the topic of my presentation. It was very successful, although the slides were prepared in a very short notice and was not to my standard quality. I got lot of greetings from all audience including the keynote speaker.

    1. Love this example of natural, relevant integrations. I try to be careful not to force or overextend them!

  2. With such a simple and short way, she’s explained a lot meaningful tip. Avoid cliches and be sincere!

  3. I have my first ever presentation today! I was a bit curious to know about how to start it and I’m glad I had a look at this video 🙂

    1. @@ExpertEnglish It wasn’t that bad as I expected! Actually that was a part of my assignment, I’m just waiting for the results now

    2. @@libbegreen3472 oh yeah I’m so sorry I completely forgot to tell you about that. I passed the course with A grade and your video is still helping me out with my presentations. I am so grateful to you. Thank you and sorry!

  4. I will took my final year diploma presentations by 5 days from now. wish me luck! and thank you for this video

  5. Short and simple. Happy to know what type of tools you use for your presentation. I just started with Animaker Deck, happy to learn more tools like that.

  6. For beginners it is fine to be a little telegraphic. The key elements of an introduction are to greet & introduce the topic or issue. You can include a purpose too. Then an outline statement which states the key areas of your talke to be covered. Then invite questions to be asked at the end of your talk. You could also ask your audience a question – rhetorical in nature.. e.g. Have you ever felt a little sick whilst sitting in traffic? Well, today’s topic will look at air pollution and noise pollution caused by traffic jams. Stories or anecdotes or setting the scene or mood is harder to do for lower level English learners; however, this inductive manner of getting to the point or purpose of your talk is a novel approach for sure.

    1. I would not promote the cliché way of starting a presentation. It’s the main reason the audience mentally switches off, because they instantly know another uninspired presentation is coming their way. Step out of your comfort zone. That’s where the big win is.

    2. @@ExpertEnglishI agree here. While beginners in all facets are granted a bit more leniency, I’d recommend starting off the right way to not get into bad habits as they get better and to hopefully get those wins right off the bat! 😀

    1. Im learning how to present a group project, without the group project even started. PANIC MODE ACTIVATED

  7. I told a prospective customer this, brainstormed from the video: I’m so happy that Amy Gerety brought up introductions.

    Introductions are important, it begins the story about who is involved and why we are all here. I like the story idea and the why! Another sales tool I can use, thanks.

  8. I’m watching this video right now, sitting in class, waiting for my roll number to be called for the presentation. Thanks for helping me at the very last moment Expert Academy. ❤
