Google slides

Google slides cannot be avoided when it comes to this issue. Mostly because all we need from time to time is one practical and common way to present. All you need in order to be able to use Google slides for presetting is Google account (gmail.com). Google slides is a part of Google documents which allows you to create, share and present multimedia presentation. Google Docs does automatically save your presentation any time you make changes. Except texts you can also insert imagines, items, videos from YouTube, lines and shapes. I think one of the best things you can do by using Google slides is inviting friends or target groups to view your presentations by entering their emails. This is still one of the best opportunities to create and edit presentations online for free.

Probably you will be surprised, but there are more than 25 years since PowerPoint was first launched. Considering this I would say that there is only one manner to be sure you are doing right with your presentations. Which is to stay updated. Try to not be slave of only one program, in this way you can improve your actual skills and develop new ones.

But, what is it asked for you to do during the presentation? We will try to show few steps very shortly and practically for how to be good and comfortable during public speaking.

We all have some level of weaknesses in public speeches, thus first do not take it personal. Firstly, talk simply and be neat. Do not make your speech exaggerated. Be interactive; do not let your audience staring at you all the time. They are main part of your speech. Be flexible! If something unexpected happens just go with it. Something very crucial here is to know your audience, so be well informed in front of who you are presenting and make sure your presentation will contain valid information and come to a good and also short conclusion.

Wishing you a very good luck at your future presentations, and do not forget to learn from your previous experiences.
