language, such as hand
gestures or pointing to a
slide which will help
emphasize key points.

29. 2. Use your voice to

periods of silence. They
give you a chance to
gather your thoughts
and your audience an
opportunity to think
about what you have
just said.

30. 3. Use your body language
to communicate
• If you appear bored or tired of
what you're talking about, the
audience will emulate this.
• Stand straight and
comfortably. Don't slouch or
waddle.
• Make eye contact with people
within the audience. Looking at
your audience brings them into
the conversation.

31. 3. Use your body language
to communicate
• When we communicate
with friends, we naturally use
their hands, face, and body to
feature during
communication.
• Try doing it in your
presentation. It'll make things
way more interesting for the
audience
