6 min read ยท Published 2026-07-16

A short presentation follows a fixed shape.

Opening

"Good morning everyone. Today I will talk about improving English at home."

Body (3 points)

  1. Practice daily.
  2. Use free tools.
  3. Record yourself.

Support each with one line.

Closing

"To sum up, small daily steps bring big change. Thank you. Any questions?"

Link phrases

"First", "Next", "For example", "In conclusion". They guide listeners.

Delivery

Speak slower than normal. Pause after key points. Eye contact with different people.

Practice
