mam your english communication is excellence could you please give me some tips to enhance my english like you
Leila, nowadays we are making presentation via MS Teams without applying presentation mode. Could you do a video with some tips for these types of situation? Merci
helpful video .thank you ma'am
@@technicalabhicse5478 00 as an English as a Second Language instructor since 1973, I encourage you to listen to excellent recorded English videos here on RUclips, then practice saying the same words. Make a voice recording of your speaking and continue to practice until your English is the way that you want it.
@@doboyle1955 Thank you for the tips
"Your slides shouldn't make sense without you". That's a real eye-opener. Thanks!
Then here's my teacher getting angry because "our ppt doesn't make sense"..
Now I understand it lacks "...without us"
Although I agree with this statement in theory, but I feel that verbally giving the answer may not register with some viewers - those who are aural learners will pick up, whereas many of my students didn't understand, till the answer was visually displayed and then re-explained.
So, when I ask a question in one slide, I not only explain this verbally, but follow-up with the answer displayed on a subsequent slide. Although this may be boring for those who have understood, the majority (who didn't) now got the point - which is what is the purpose of having the PowerPoint session, in the first place. It shouldn't be a brand-building exercise, but an attempt to transfer knowledge.
@@vikrammgokhale that's why u give handouts later
Yes, this got me too.
@@abdullah.a.nahyan Actually, personally, I don't believe in giving any handouts. My maxim is: Say what you want to say (in the class itself) or else your presentation is incomplete. All doubts should be resolved, while both the student and the lecturer are present. In fact, I encourage my students to make their own notes, based on their own understanding - I don't want them to just mug-up stuff from a handout (which is usually the case, when one is given). But this is only my personal opinion...😉
This is so profound !!! Your slides shouldn’t make sense without you !!!!
"Your slides shouldn't make sense without you"🔥🔥🔥
Good tips! PowerPoint with office 365 is transformational, the morph, zoom and icon features have drastically changed the way I have done every presentation in the last 3 years!
Three quick tips that are spot-on, packed with quality, vision, and value. I love your take on notes, slides, and pdfs. Thanks, Leila. :)
Your slide shouldn't make sense without you !!! So powerful
Thank you Leila! I would love to see more videos on Power Point presentation tips.Your videos are always the most helpful!
Excellent message! “Your slides shouldn’t make sense without you” are words to love by! Thanks!
Straight to the point video. Precisely what I needed. Kudos to you lady.
Excellent tips Leila, thanks for your advice. I fully agree that the presentation on each slide should be as small and clear as possible, straight to the point.
Thank you for the great Lecture and again reminded that simplicity is utmost sophistication. Regarding the branding, I suppose it would be helpful to infuse unification into the single slides,,, :)
I like to add a 4th section to my PPT: at the end include critical communication info such as call in numbers or a Webex session number. You don't have to show that info, but if you need it due to a glitch you always have it for reference - you may forget your yellow sticky with the info but you always have the PPT.
Thank you for the simplicity and whole tips!
Love it!!! Since I stumbled across your videos i'm hooked. I hope you will produce more. I'm in class currently and have to write papers each week. Our class is on its last exercise in Excel and I am seeing more of your videos being used. We will be in PowerPoint very soon I have posted your video on my power point paper. Your topic is informative for the newbies who are just starting out. Thank you
I just love your delivery. I bindge watch your channel. It's addictive. It makes me feel like my learning is an endless mountain I must climb and I am enjoying the view when looking down.
Awesome! Thank you!
So helpful to watch just before creating my course presentation! thank you Leila
Highly appreciate your great video!!!
Powerpoint, yes! Please make more videos with presentation tips and general Powerpoint tips.
Pointing out a common but rarely acknowledged problem and solving it. Very helpful
This is really insightful. Realized I have been presenting handouts and overusing the company logo.....thank you your tips are very helpful
Hi Leila! As always - an excellent presentation and an inspiring visual message. Thank you.
You 3rd advice is very good....not logo on every slide. It comes just in time for me before I post my website next week! You are a blessing to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're great.. so much respect for u and your professionalism... thanks aloy
Thank you for your tips. The one tip on abbreviating words too much is spot on. I remember when I was a new employee and went to meetings where most of slides had weird acronyms. It confused everyone.
Thanks for sharing these tips Leila!
"Your slides shouldn't make sense without you." Gold.
I loved that too. I mean we all hear it that less is more and whatnot but this really clicked!!!
Awesome tips and appreciate you sharing them with us.
greatly helpful tips. thanks
This is very helpful, thank you😃
Nicely explained. To the point. Thanks a lot.
Very useful tips.. thanks
Very Nice and Informative Video! Thanks!! 😎
Simply brilliant. Thank you.
The Power of being to the Point.Thank you very much!
Excellent tips Leila, flavored with a humorous acronyms stories.
Please keep couple more Powerpoint tips coming as presentating ur findings is becoming as important as the analysis if not more!
Very well said
This was very helpful ‼️💯
This is so needed. I've seen more PowerPoints that are more like root canals than informative. When done correctly they can be so artistic and captivating. I hope that you do more of these to show the masses how to present properly.
I'v seen some of them too :) Glad you like it!
This is useful and helpful. “Your slides should not make sense without you” is my take home. Nearly put
So informative .. thank you ..
Thank you, really helpful for me
Top! Principles that may seem basic but which are definitely key. “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” never gets old...
So true, Pedro!
Another great video! Thanks, Leila. You brought out some things that I hadn't thought of.
Thank you! I'm glad you find it useful.
Thank you for uploading, great video
Perfect and helpful as always. Thx a lot.
Especially the hint about the branding.
You're very welcome Rudolf! I'm glad you find the tips helpful.
that's excellent explanation.
you are the best PowerTrainerWomen.
Great video, thank you! I will use this to help my students prepare for their presentation exams.
Thank you so much for this.
It am new to power point presentation and looking for how best to do it.
I'm so thankful to have seen this .
I can now get my own set up to present soon .
Nice and useful tips. Thanks!
Really good tips. Thank u.
This is great information.
I’ve learned to use slides as a visual representation to support what people are saying. They should tell a visual story with the oral story of the presenter.
I really try to avoid bullet points but they are necessary sometimes.
Too much animation needs to be avoided too.
Thanks for sharing.
Your videos are very helpful .
Awesome tips, thank you!
It takes time and effort to create wonderful youtube videos and PowerPoint presentations. Great tips!
Great tips! Thanks
TQ Leila. Will learn from your tips
Thank you, insightful
Great to see you now doing PowerPoint. Can you also show how to use an embedded Excel sheet in PowerPoint?
Thanks for the useful tips!
Very Useful Leila..... Keep Going 👍
Thank you for such detailed and helpful tips on power point presentations.
You're very welcome. Glad you like it.
Thank you, Leila! Your tips and practices have been incredibly useful while preparing for ppt presentations. Hoping to see further content similar to this video. :)
Wonderful!
great tips. thank youso much
I always love your videos. Never stop
every time your guidance is valuable !, Thanks !
My pleasure. Glad you like the video.
Good learning great video and concept
Always great video’ s. I agree with all your points and it’s when you present on a regular basis that you realise that text heavy or over populated slides are the worst. I always think back to the simplicity of Steve Job’s presentations. 1 word can say it all. Would be great to see more PowerPoint videos from you. Thanks
Thanks for your comment and your support. I'm planning to make more PowerPoint videos. Agree - Steve Job's had great presentations -except for the 3d pie charts :)
Great video as well. You took your own advice.
A nice video again with some really useful tips!!
Glad you like them, Sanjay!
I like your presentations so much, I hardly really listen the first time. But it's a plus; it helps me listen again, again and again.
I'm glad you like the videos Emmanuel!
Brilliant. Thanks for the share
Thank you … useful for me..!!!
Very spot on! Love these advices!
Thank you Alvin! I'm glad you like it.
Thanks. This was a good 3 pointer on better PowerPoint presentations. Why? Because these 3 points are the very ones I found to be the most valuable when designing presentations a couple years ago. Great confirmation.
Thanks for taking us to another level madam.
Hi Leila.. great tips. I don't do that much with PP, but your comments and perspective can be carried over to how to design and present pages or components of a workbook in EXCEL. Always something new and valuable to think about from your channel. Thanks again and thumbs up!
You're very welcome Wayne! Many thanks for your support.
Great tips - thanks so much!! Great video too. It was short and straight to the point. "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication"
Glad you liked it!
Excellent, 'your slides should not make sense without you' was the best, and the example of before n after slides tells a lot of dos n don'ts at a glance.
I'm glad you liked this tutorial. Thank you Syed for your comment and support.
Very short and concise
Lovely. THanks!
This is a powerful insight. This simplicity was lacking in my slides. I am now able to make them understandable
Glad it was helpful.
As usual, your videos are great
Awesome tips 👌🏼
Great advice, many thanks 😊
My pleasure!
Thanks for the information..
I totally agree with handout versus visual cue. And also the emptier a slide the better. When it comes to presentations I think I am at my best when almost every slide just contains images that help me to build and support my narrative.......they do say a picture paints a thousand words 😊
So true :)
Thanks for these helpful tips 🙂
These really helped me
My pleasure 😊
Great video. Our company policy is to distribute decks at least 24 hours in advance of meetings. So they become dense. But your suggestion of the more detailed PDF would maintain the slide presentation as it should be. You could do a whole course on editing presentations to more powerful solutions. Thanks!
This is so great.
Excellent points. I can't tell you how many times I've been to presentations and had to sit farther back, and the presenter's slides were so complex and crammed that I couldn't read them from where I sat, so I quickly tuned out the presentation and was bored.
The tips are very helpful and succinctly stated. What may seem like a subtle modification (removing a logo from every page or using a watermark instead), can make a significant difference. I'd like to hear from Leila on PPt presentations to different audiences and for different purposes - to persuade, inform, etc.
Excellent advice and one of your best videos. Thank you.
Glad you like it!
You know those situations where you think you're doing well, and someone comes along WITH SOLID ARGUMENTS and proves you wrong? This tutorial is a good example! Once again you do it Leila, Thanks a lot!!! 😉🤜🤛
Leila: just wanted to tell you how much I like the way how you present your videos - it is so camly presented und very clear such that even I, not PP expert, can understand them
Thanks for the kind feedback Felix!
Thanks for sharing experience. Simplicity is a key and it's art to present complex things in simple way
Agree - It truly is an art.
I loved the video. It’s exactly what I teach my clients. Based on this and some of your other videos, I’d say that our approaches to slides are very similar. Which is why I am curious about one thing. You sometimes seem to use the word “presentation” as a synonym for “slide deck”. For example “... PowerPoint presentation...” I know that almost everyone does the same, but I feel that this reinforces the misconception that the sides are the presentation, i.e. they need to contain everything and be a document that is self explanatory. I would argue that the slides should not make sense without the presenter delivering them and the follow-up document should. Which I think you describe as the “neighbor test” and you seem to be advocating too. This is why I keep insisting with my clients that they use the word “presentation” for something that is much bigger (a presenter delivering a talk and using slides as visual support for what is being said) and that they call the visual support, if it comes in the shape of slides, a “slide deck” or just “slides”. I wander what your thoughts on this are. Thanks in advance and have a lovely weekend.
Great Work Leila Gharani, you are a brilliant trainer with out of the box practical approach
Thank you for the kind words Muhammad.
Agree with every word.Thanks so much. I have the same discussion with colleagues who want to plaster their documents with a logo on every page and who still try to use their slides as their speaking notes!
You're very welcome Erica. It's great you're spreading the word. It's a difficult habit to get rid of... for me the first one was difficult to adjust to.
I agree with you Leila on everything you have mentioned! :)
Great ideas and tips Leila. I'm going to be presenting some information to an internal group this month and will now go back through my slides and apply your tips. Thanks again.
Great! All the best for your presentation.
Very effective video indeed.
