TED Talks

This week we analyzed a few TED talks and reviewed characteristics of one to prepare for our own speeches we will have when presenting our Courage Project.


What are the five qualities of a great presenter?
  1. Confident
  2. Organized
  3. Authentic
  4. Generous
  5. Engaging

What are five quick tips?
  1. Let your passion show
  2. Make the audience laugh
  3. Optimize your slides
  4. Use powerful visuals
  5. Simplify your message

What are your strengths as a presenter?
My strengths are writing the speech beforehand because I am confident in writing well and thoroughly.

What do you think will be challenging when you do your TED Talk during the Exhibition?
I think that talking at the right speed and being confident in my presentation will be challenging for me.

What are you going to do to overcome these challenges?
To overcome these challenges I will probably have to rehearse my talk a lot to become comfortable in front of an actual audience. This way I can focus less on the words and more on connecting with the people I'm presenting to.
