Good presentation skills can set you apart in your career. Whether you're presenting to clients, colleagues or a conference audience, how you deliver your message is just as important as what you say. At The Presenter Studio, we train professionals from all backgrounds to become powerful and persuasive communicators. Here are five expert tips to improve your presentation skills straight away.

Start strong. Your opening sets the tone, so begin with a clear, confident message. Avoid long-winded intros — instead, lead with impact by stating a powerful fact, asking a question or telling a short story.

Be conversational. The best presenters sound natural, not scripted. Avoid robotic or overly formal language. Instead, use everyday language that sounds like you're talking to a real person. It helps the audience feel connected and engaged.

Focus on one core message. Many presentations fail because they try to do too much. Simplify your content so your audience walks away remembering one key point. If you’re clear, they’ll be clear too.

Use your voice and body language to add energy. Vary your tone, pace and volume to keep things interesting. Don’t be afraid to use pauses — they give your audience time to digest what you’re saying and give you time to think.

Practice out loud. Reading silently isn’t enough. Rehearse your presentation aloud so you can hear how it flows and fix any awkward phrasing. Practising also helps reduce nerves and boosts confidence.
