Speaker's tip (Look, then move): Good: looking around the room, a few seconds per person, every section including the back row, glancing at notes and then up. Poor: staring at the ceiling, the floor or the slides, reading with your head down, looking at one friend only. Match your face to your words: warm smile, serious face or surprised look.
