thank you! I have to speak for about 30 minutes....I know I have enough stuff to talk about but I can't seem to find a way to start it and the order of things to say...arrrrk! I don't want to forget anything, I though no one would be interested in couponing and all my class asked me to talk about that! I don't want to deceive them! lol!

To start your oral presentation, you need a hook -- something to grab the audience's attention.

Maybe you could say, "Would you like to know how to change a $30 grocery bill into a $3 grocery bill? It is possible. There are great online communities that can help you do just that."

You will have the interest of your audience and they will be eager to learn more.

For your conclusion, you can refer back to the "hook" with, " So, now you know how to magically change $30 to $3. More money in your pocket. I am confident that all of you can be a skilled couponer in no time."

I hope this helps.

you could give each of them a coupon (preferably one you do not use)--bring in a few items and say for example--resolve--free, ice tea--free

I agree.
Show and tell. LOL.
Bring the Resolve coupon or printable plus the free bottle of Resolve.

Hi!

I did my presentation, it went super well!!! I spoke for about 40 minutes and didn't have time to say all that I wanted to say, everybody was very interested by what I had to say, they asked a lot of questions and even took notes!

Great to hear. I was wondering how the class reacted. Speaking for 40 minutes -- wow- I assume this means they were very interested.

WTG.

Doing my essay this week. Not a popular topic: why it's a good idea to get a 'flu shot this year. Mine is due Monday at midnight. I have the draft done. Now to "make it pretty".
