BEP 10 – Describing Charts and Trends |
03 Jul 2024
|
A good graph, diagram or chart can bring your presentation to life. Remember that "a picture can paint a thousand words". Putting graphical information into words can be easy as long as you keep your sentence structure simple. In your reading, you will come across a great variety of words and expressions to describe trends. However, when you speak you should only use words whose meaning you are totally sure of. Use clear and familiar words at all times. Remember that your one objective in giving your presentation is to get your message across to your audience clearly and simply. Your objective is not to impress your audience with your extensive vocabulary. First, you're going to listen to someone describing three different graphs during a presentation. Then we present the language and grammatical structures you need to accurately describe trends. After that, you can practice using the language by completing a number of exercises. And finally, we'll summarise the topic in our podcast lesson. |
