Taller de Presentaciones

El taller de presentaciones en inglés ayuda al alumno a desarrollar sus competencias tanto de comprensión como de expresión oral necesarias para llevar adelante o para ser parte de una presentación en inglés. Además, brinda al alumno todas las frases, fórmulas, vocabulario y estrategias tanto para la organización como para el desarrollo y la presentación visual.

An introduction to presentations:

2 OPENING: a) Say a few words about yourself b) Tell the audience the structure of your talk c) Tell the audience how they will benefit from your presentation.

3 MESSAGE: Present a small number of main points – a maximum of four.

4 BRIDGE: Connect each point to the needs/interests of your audience. For example, show the audience how they will benefit or ask them a question.

5 EXAMPLES: Give examples to make your points clear.

6 RECAP: Summarize the main points again. Mention the key benefits – how audience members can apply the information in your talk to their specific situation.

7 BANG! Finish with impact: a link back to your opening Bang!; a dramatic statement which sums up your message; an unusual visual aid; a strong Thank you for your attention; a call to action (something you want the audience to do)
