Effective strategies (check those that apply):

- ✅ reviewing my notes so that I am prepared to speak about the topic
- ✅ practicing in front of a mirror, a friend, or a family member
- ✅ timing the presentation
- ✅ researching the topic ahead of time

Not effective / avoid:

- ❌ practicing speaking as quickly as possible to warm up my voice — rapid speaking hurts clarity; better to warm up with breathing, humming, articulation exercises and practice at your planned pace.
- ❌ putting all of my notes in my visuals so I can present without notes — slides should highlight key points; overloading visuals with full notes loses audience attention.
