motions, gestures, eye contact, touch and etc.
Body language can have a significant effect between a dull, static presentation and
a dynamic, engaging in one. Obviously, body language has a wide range of
components, thus we have separated it into five classes:

· Facial Expressions

· Eye contact

· Posture

· Gestures

· Position and movements


FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
Facial expressions are also among the most widespread forms of non-verbal
communication / body language. The expressions used to convey fear, outrage,
bitterness, anger, sadness, happiness and satisfaction are comparable all through
the world. The expression on an individual's face could in fact help decide whether
we trust or accept what the individual is talking about. Surprise, Disgust, Fear,
Confusion, Excitement, Happiness, Sadness, Anger, Contempt, Desire

EYE CONTACT
The eyes are habitually referred to as the "windows to the soul" since they are
equipped for uncovering an extraordinary deal about the thing an individual is
feeling or thinking. As you take part in discussion with someone else, observing
eye movements is a characteristic and significant piece of the communication
process. Eye contact is crucial when it comes to presentation. The way in which
you use eye contact and look at your audience depends on the size of the room and
the audience.

GENERAL TIPS

POSTURE
Whether you are sitting or standing, the manner by which you hold yourself is
inconceivably significant and establishes the tone for the entire presentation before
it's even started.

form of a person. Posture can pass on an abundance of data / information about
how an individual is feeling as well as clues about personality, characteristics and
qualities.

GESTURES

signals. Waving, pointing, and utilizing the fingers to demonstrate mathematical
sums are extremely normal and easy to understand.

A good posture will put you well while heading to presentation success, yet on the
off potential for success that you have still without moving some other part of your
body, it can make an exceptionally odd impression. Then again, over practiced or
misrepresented hand signals can be off putting and look unnatural.

● The “V” sign

POSITION AND MOVEMENTS

presentation. It will be clear directly up whether you have any flexibility and
adaptability over where you position yourself or on the other hand assuming that
movement around the space is even conceivable, however it's generally worth
considering.
