Putting my presentation together this time round is much easier and I have a significantly clearer idea of what I want to say and how I am going to structure the presentation.
This week I have also tried practicing my presentation to some family members who took great joy in booing whenever the um's and ah's made their way to my lips. Nevertheless, their advice and patience has certainly encouraged me.
Kirti and I have also agreed to get together at some point and practice too, and I think this will be a great confidence booster also.
The biggest benefit so far, is that with having written my thoughts out in the paper, I no longer need my notes to know what I am going to say. I feel that I know the content and structure of my research well enough to do without. This may allow me to keep my hands from fidgeting and my gaze on the audience throughout.
