TIPS FOR PRESENTERS:
1.       Don’t memorize your presentation. Make brief notes to guide you.
2.       Practice many times.
3.       At the beginning, relax, take a deep breath, and wait until the audience is quiet.
4.       Speak loudly and clearly, and use your voice for stress and emphasis.
5.       Use gestures to show meaning. Make them slowly and clearly.
6.       Use simple visual aids that everyone can see.
7.       Most significantly, make eye contact with the audience as you speak.
8.       Don’t say, “Finished” or “That’s all” at the end. Smile and say “Thank you” and ask audience for question.
9.       Think about how you can do better next time and fix the mistake.
I think that seven and eight is most important, which makes presentation more powerful.

Personal introduction


 

Hasan Abdullah Al-Hammadi

I’d like to introduce Hasan Abdullah Al-Hammadi

He was born on 24st February 1990 and so he is now 20 years old. He was born in Dhalma but now lives in Abu Dhabi in Khalifa A City. He has three brothers. In his free time, Hasan likes playing football, meeting new friends, reading books, and swimming. He has visited two other countries, the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia.

His ambition is to be a writer and establish his ideas to people, and to be a pacemaker in the future.

His best holiday was when he went to the United Kingdom to visit Madame Tussaud's and Big Ben and take some pictures.

He thinks the best thing about ADMC is the timetable because he likes the afternoon learning.

And the worst thing is the IELTS system which is not helpful for students.

His motto is: When you are in light, everything will follow you. But when you enter dark, even your own shadow will not follow you. That is life. 

Now you know a little bit about Hasan Abdullah, his family and leisure activities.
