5. CONCLUDE…. Review your main points Provide a final focus Tell your listeners how they can use the information

CONS FANCY FONTS• Fancy fonts are rather difficult to see• If you make use of PowerPoint during

presentation avoid fancy fonts.• Fancy fonts are very difficult to see. • Rather use simple fonts such as Arial

or Times New Roman.• Make sure the font is readable.

6.SPELLING AND GRAMMAR• This is one of the most important

things in any presentation.• Many people do not double check

their spelling and grammar.• This makes people lose focus on your

initial message.• So always makes sure to check

spelling and grammar.

7.NO CONCLUSION• Do not neglect giving a summary

when you are done with your presentation.

• This reminds the audience what your main point was.

• Not including a thank you slide is bad presentation manners.
