Ep. #14 - Creepypodden

Are you ready to become a powerful presenter? As an educator, my mission is to unlock the presentation skills of my Business English (BE) students. In today's professional world, the ability to deliver captivating talks is a game-changer. In my classroom, I guide students on structuring their presentations, using impactful visuals, delivering engaging speeches, conquering nerves, and acing audience questions. By exploring the secrets of great presentations, we learn how to captivate audiences from the very beginning, organize ideas effectively, and leave a lasting impression. We delve into the art of visual design, creating visually stunning slides that enhance our messages. Through practice and feedback, students develop their unique speaking styles, mastering storytelling, body language, and voice variation. We address the fear of public speaking head-on, equipping students with techniques to manage nerves and build confidence. Additionally, we tackle the art of answering audience questions with poise and precision. With a supportive environment and practical strategies, I empower my students to become confident presenters who leave a lasting impact.

How to Present and Speak in Business

Mum: Hi remember me?

Dad: Oh yeah, aren’t you wait, aren’t you the mother of my children?

Mum: Yes, how are you doing? Haven’t seen you in a while! 

Dad: Now I’ve put them to bed, I’m great! 

Mum: Today was exhausting!

Dad: Tell me about it. What time were you up?

Mum: About 4:30. I need that early morning time to get myself together and actually do some work before it all goes to hell.

Dad: Every night, I tell myself I’m going to do that, and every morning when the alarm goes off, I tell myself I need just a few more minutes of sleep.

Mum: You’re a night owl, I’m an early bird, it’s just how we are.

Dad: But I want to be an early bird and watch TV at night instead of doing the work I need to do. By the way, thanks for helping me out today. I owe you. Tomorrow, they’re mine.

Mum: It’s fine. Apart from when Justin dropped his yogurt, I think it went pretty well.

Dad: Oh, I don’t think anyone even noticed the screaming child while I was presenting – and if they did, they probably didn’t want to say anything in case they have their own children screaming on call in the future.

Mum: I don’t think I’m convinced about this hybrid working situation. Don’t get me wrong, I love not having to commute every day. With my job, that’s easily two hours of the day I get back. But organizing myself and kids and work?

Dad: Yeah, it’s a challenge. Some days I feel on top of it all, but there are days when I feel like I’m a terrible employee, a terrible father and a terrible husband.

Mum: (with joking intonation) Oh honey, don’t think like that. Trust me, you’re a terrible husband EVERY day, not just some days.

Dad: Just for that, I’m not going to tell you where Becky hid the chocolate Nutella.

Mum: I’ll just go and buy more.

Dad: or the car keys

Mum: Fine. You’re a wonderful husband on most days.

Dad: I’ll be wonderful tomorrow while you’re in your meeting. What are you doing again?

Mum: I’m just leading the meeting, but the CEO is going to be there.
