8. Beforeyou start making a presentation • beforeyou start, askyourselfsomequestions: • what do youknowaboutthe audience/ recipient? • for whoisthepresentation made for? • how much time I have? • whatisthepurposeofthispresentation? isit a study material, orisit just a background for my speech? • what do I want to hand over? • what do I want to sharethroughthepresentation?

9. Same basic principles • keepitshort • use facts, not generalities – not any fuzzy concepts • customize for every audience • simplifyyourgraphics – simplegraphicsthathighlighttheimportantthings • keppbackgrounds in the background – simple, single colour, neutralcolor background • clear arrangement • use readeablefonts • becarefulwithtoo much ofitalics, ALL-CAPS orboldface • in the end, the extra graphics, for example in PowerPoint, are useless – itisneccessary to focus on what‘simportant

10. Clear arrangement For the tomato sauce, peel and finely slice the garlic, then fry in a good amount of olive oil until lightly coloured. Pick and tear the basil leaves, then add to the pan with the tomatoes. Using the back of a wooden spoon, mush and squash the tomatoes as much as you can. Season to taste. As soon as it comes to the boil, remove the pan from the heat. Strain the sauce through a coarse sieve into a bowl, using the spoon to push any larger bits of tomato through. Discard the basil and garlic left in the sieve, but scrape any tomatoe goodness off the back of the sieve into the bowl. Pour the sauce back into the pan, bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Cook until it’s the perfect consistency for spreading on your pizza bases. For the pizza dough, sieve the flour and salt onto a clean work surface and make a well in the middle. In a jug, mix the yeast, sugar and olive oil into 650ml lukewarm water and leave for a few minutes, then pour into the well. Using a fork, bring the flour in gradually from the sides and swirl it into the liquid. When it all starts to come together, work the rest of the flour in with your clean hands. Knead until you have a smooth, springy dough. Place the ball of dough in a large flour-dusted bowl and cover with a damp cloth and place in a warm room for an hour until the dough has doubled in size.
