Just because you use it.
Summarising
Similarly, after a part of the information has been narrated, we need to summarise what has just been said so that the listener can clear his or her mind.
●Let’s summarise briefly what we have looked at.
●Here is a quick recap of the main points of this section.
●I’ d like to recap the main points.
Transitional Statements
When starting a new narrative, it is important to signal to the listener that they are ready to receive a new piece of information, for example:
●Now I’d like to recap the main points of this section.
●Now I’ d like to turn to–
●Now let’ s look at–
●Now I’ d like to turn to–
Nowlet’s look at–
●1 d now like to move on to the next part–
●Now let’ s look at.–
●Now let’ s look at.
Narrative details
Sometimes we may want to go deeper on a particular issue, and that’s when the following example sentences can be used:
●I’d like to expand on a particular issue.
●I’d like to expand on this aspect/problem/point.
●Let me elaborate further on-.
Involving diagrams and charts
It is important to remember that most presentations use diagrams and charts.
Because diagrams are far more intuitive than words, and it’s easier for the audience to receive the information in them, you can make use of some diagrams to express the information appropriately in your presentations.
When talking about charts and graphs, the following example sentences can be used as a transition.
●Looking at the chart you can see–
●As you can see from the chart.
●As you can see from the graph,….
●The graph/ chart shows–.
●If you look at this table/bar char/low chart/ line chart/graph, you can see that…
Quoting or foreshadowing
Since presentations can’t backtrack or jump around like text, sometimes we need to remind the audience of what we’ve mentioned before or forewarn them of what they’re going to cover next.
What will be covered next.
●I mentioned erler… .
●We’ II come back to this point lter-.
●As Isaid at the beginning,…
●This relates to what I was saying earlier–
Let me go back to what I said earlier about…
Introducing the Topic
The first thing a good presentation needs to do is to introduce the topic so that the audience is prepared for what you are going to say.
●The aim of this presentation is-.
●My presentation today is about–.
●TodayI’ d like to talk about.-.
●What I am going to talk about today is…
List the main points
Since Presentation is a form of language input, it should be more logical, so you should elaborate the order and main points of the narration, and have a clear outline.
●My talk will be in two (three, four) parts: Frt,-after
that,-. then,”. fnaly,.
●’Il begin by looking at… Then, I’II move on to.
Towards the endi “Il ….
Entry Phrases
For each part of the narrative, we need a point of entry, and these are good choices
●Let me start with some general information on…
●Ithink everybody has heard about”, but hardly anyone knows a lot about it.
Emphasise the point
When it comes to the focus of the Presentation, we want to emphasise so that the reader knows that this part is the main focus and is prepared in advance.
●It should be emphasised that—.
●I would like to draw your attention to this point-.
●This is important because.
Explaining the problem
Sometimes the audience may not understand a particular part of our narration, in which case we need to restate it so that the audience understands it completely.
●To put it more simply,”
●What I mean to say is…”.
●So, whatl’ m saying s…
●To put it in another way-.
