How to Practice a 5 minute group presentation | |
If you're still working on memorizing your script, then only read off of paper or notecards. No phones because phones = distration. | |
Have one person start the recorder and record the entire 5 minute presentation on the voice recorder on your phone. | |
Put the recording phone on the table, and everyone else put your phones away. | |
Present as if it's the real deal. Visualize your success. | |
Each of you have a pen and paper ready for the review session, so you can take notes about your own words and delivery. | |
After the presentation, take a little break, high five each-other. Take a moment to feel good about how far you've come. | |
Regroup and sit down together. Play back the audio. Listen to yourself carefully. Ask yourself, do your words sound like you? Are any sentences too big of a mouthful? Are you noticing that your words are changing a little bit from your script? That means your brain knows better. | |
This will take around 15 minutes for setup, presenting, and reviewing. | |
Do this 3 times in a row and then take a longer break. Shake it off, get some water, bathroom, fresh air. | |
With focus, you can get between 6-10 rounds of practice in before lunch! |
