Appearing to deliver a presentation is not an easy thing. The reason is, no one can become a great speaker in a short time.
Of course, it takes sufficient practice to be able to speak in public fluently. Especially if the presentation delivered will affect academic and performance assessments.
Great communicators always make it a habit to practice presentations like they are preparing for a theater performance. In fact, Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, spent a lot of time practicing presentations. It’s not surprising that he is still considered one of the best presenters of all time.
So, how did Steve Jobs practice presentations to become known as a great presentation presenter? Come on, take a look at the complete review below, Beauties!

Steve Jobs also always paid attention to every detail in his presentations. Each presentation slide is made with a simple design, but still attractive.
Not only that, Steve Jobs also paid attention to the movements he made with his hands at important moments, as well as the speed of his delivery. He increased his speaking speed during some parts of the presentation and slowed down when he wanted to get his message across.
3. Practice Really

Steve Jobs practiced for a presentation like an actor practices for a performance. In fact, Steve Jobs also did a rehearsal on stage to deliver each presentation slide out loud.
Reading presentation slides over and over again will not help you build the confidence needed to stand up and speak in front of an audience. For this reason, try asking your friends to watch you practice your presentation.
4. Ask for Feedback

After practicing your presentation, don’t forget to ask for feedback from friends! Find out what other people think about the slides, sequence, message, or turn of phrase you use. If you want to get better, you need help from others.
5. Schedule a rehearsal
