Avoid talking in a monotonous voice. Speak distinctly and at a volume loud enough for everyone to hear without either shouting or sounding as though you are whispering. Respect your time limit, do not go on and on or finish way before the allotted time decided. Humour should be used with caution as it can work in your favour or even go against you.

Depending on your preference, you can inform your audience to ask questions during the presentation or after it ends or even both. Repeat the question for everyone to hear as well as make sure you understand it well, before you start answering it. Keep responses brief and to the point. If you do not know the answer, say that you will check up on that and revert back. Do not fake an answer to appear knowledgeable when you may not know the real answer. It is better to be truthful rather than give a wrong answer. You can offer a source where the answer could be found.

The more often you practice presenting to an audience, the more confident you will get. You will be able to understand what works best for you. You will be more willing to try out new techniques of presentation. Practice makes one perfect! As long as you know about your topic, are enthusiastic about it, are professional in presenting that is all that matters. Little bit of nervousness is natural. So expect that, take a deep breath and enjoy yourself during presentations.
