About this talk
• I used to be extremely afraid of speaking in public
•In fact, I was so afraid that I could hardly speak
•But, because I had to speak, I spent a bit of time thinking about it
• Today, I will share with you some of my reflections on how to do presentations
•I am actually quite nervous to talk about it here

Slides
•Every decent talk is accompanied by slides
•Text is difficult to read so, slides should not have more than 6 first level bullets
•The text should be no smaller than 12 pt
•A good slide has an engaging design
•Don’t just use a standard design
•Show that you care
• Let’s see what a good template is made of ...
