I wasn't kidding, don't talk like some gangstah rappah to da homies and da bitches in the audience.
A professional attitude helps, that includes correct language. Don't keep your hands in your pants, look at everyone. Don't talk too fast or too slow. Don't run around like a nut. Don't be a statue either.
Don't talk to much about irrelevant things. ie stay on topic.

Also, tell us what the occasion is. ie are you running for president, introducing the new Ferrari or is it some presentation at school?

Go forth, watch Steve Ballmer videos on Youtube, and don't be like that.

School presentation, slides often help there, teachers love slides and handouts. School never is about doing things rights, it's about doing what the teachers likes.
Have your classmates ask complex questions and be prepared with some good answer. Teacher love good responses to good questions.

Speak to the audience not to the roof,Keep your talk kinda interactive like if you could ask questions,be gentle and pollite a <UST,wear normal but gentle and pro looking way,PLS brush your shoes shine if youre not behind a stand,every once look at different points in the audience,once in a while look at someone and talk to him,Dont be a pupuet,Those hands you have and the face:they have motions and emotions.MOST Important;control your voice.Thats the best way to get attraction.And dont talk like I typed in the points?Get it.Organization is a must too.And get that how I pointed my point out.Kill them all!!

Go slower than you think you should be going. That's number one. Number two is being clear and knowing what you're talking about, REHEARSE your speech. Don't look at one point in the audience, look at all the audience, oh and if the teachers in your line of sight make sure you make eye contact. Slides are good. Don't stutter, don't go uhh, hmmm, uhmm. Use emotions (if applicable). Hands out of pockets of course. You should use good vocabulary, but don't use words people won't know, that's pointless.
