For example, being asked to present at your interview is a common request from employers whereby you are given the subject matter in advance. At university, being asked to present on topics is a consistent demand in passing exams and assessments.
Giving a presentation is evident in most professions. For example, you might be an Engineer, and your boss asks you to deliver an Elevator Pitch for a new product. The quality of your presentation could also be an essential factor in the success of promoting your company's product or service. So, giving a presentation can mean pressure, and as a presenter, you must control your nerves, remain calm and maintain professionalism.
Presenting with confidence is so critical. When speaking to an audience, there is the expectation that you have a unified command of English.
