Being good at presentations in any language requires a very complex skill set, and for some of us, they are always a real challenge. But if we make small attempts to present simple and brief concepts\u2014like we&#8217;re doing today in this Club session, our minds will register these as successful milestones, and next time we&#8217;ll feel a bit better, a bit more in control of the situation, and perhaps even pleased to be able to share something with a group of people who are expecting it. Today, we want to lift the veil of embarrassment off the concept of presenting in English, by inviting you to make 3 micro-presentations with us.
