Quick tips
Use ONE notecard with words, not sentences. This will give you more scope for audience engagement and eye contact/looking in the camera.
While practicing, record your speech to keep track of time, delivery, body language and overall organization.
Check your grammar. Your outline should have full sentences.
Be careful with words. We do NOT want to hurt or offend anyone in the classroom.
Practice! Practice! Practice!
