Goals:
1. To begin, proceed, digress, summarize and end a presentation, and to respond to questions in an effective manner
2. To convert written into spoken English: stylistic differences
3. To practice correct pronunciation and intonation
4. To deliver a talk in a relaxed manner using effective visual aids, but without reading
5. To analyze one's own presentation and (in groups) others' presentations in a supportive, affirmative manner, including attention to body language and visual aids.
