    That’s the “say what you’re going to say, say it, then say what you said” advice from school. It’s ok if you don’t know any better, or maybe for particularly boring work presentations, but it isn’t a golden rule that most people blindly repeating it think it is.

    Think about the best presentations you’ve seen. They never do that. They’re engaging enough that you don’t need repeat things three times.

      I didn’t get that in school, perhaps we’re in a different country or something. It’s not about being engaging or following a guideline. It’s about setting goals and checking if you achieved them.

      Every audience is different, every student learns at their own way and pace. A one size fits all solution doesn’t exist. Some presentations may be awesome, but that takes more than just a good script and slideshow
