【Objective】
Presentation skill is very important in modern society. However, very few people understand the true meaning of presentation and what really is the effective presentation. Effective presentations are still rare. With an appropriate method of practicing presentation and a step-by-step training, everybody can be an effective presenter. Since this course has been designed for EFL learners, some basic speech training will be given. In addition, speech delivery training will also be given so that the students will be able to do presentation with confidence. If you can successfully convey your message to the audience, and build a mutual understanding with them, you will be able to promote your self-actualization. I hope all of you will attain self-confidence and personal growth by developing your presentations skills.
