  • Hi, it's Carl Kwan here and this is Presentation Quick Tip #3.

  • In this video, you're gonna learn a great way to start a presentation and get the audience's

  • attention. So what you're gonna say is, "I was going

  • to tell you about A, but instead, I'm going to tell you about B."

  • Now B must be related to A and it should also be a kind of a story about A.

  • So for example, "I was going to tell you about the human genome, but instead, I'm going to

  • tell you a story about a boy who lived down the street from me who was really sick.

  • So the rest of the story is gonna be how the boy was sick and how the human genome was

  • able to help him. The human genome project, that is, of course.

  • So how that was able to help him is gonna be a much more interesting story than just

  • talking about the human genome. So again, what you'd say is, "I was going

  • to tell you about A, but instead, I'm going to tell you about B."

  • And that is Presentation Quick Tip #3. If you have any questions or comments, please

  • leave them below this video. Thanks again.

  • Talk to you again soon. Bye-bye.
