Proposal-Model Question 2 Task: Helping With Students Presentations: A Proposal
TASK
Students at your college have to give a spoken presentation as part of their final assessment and
need some help. The school director has invited you to send a proposal outlining any problems
students have with presentations and suggesting how these problems could be overcome.
Introduction
In this proposal I will describe some of the difficulties students at this school have with
preparing their final presentations, present the key needs to be addressed and conclude by
making a series of recommendations on how teachers at the school could assist students with
overcoming the obstacles to giving a successful presentation confidently.
Current situation
Following discussion among the students, it has become clear that many of them are feeling very
nervous about the upcoming presentations. A number of students are struggling to select an
appropriate structure. Comments made suggest that students lack previous experience in public
speaking and would like opportunities to practise before the final assessment.
Students require additional help with topic selection and presentation structure, and opportunities
need to be provided for students to gain experience in front of others.
Recommendations
If these suggestions are implemented, it will lead to increased student confidence and
performance for the final presentations.
