Presentation Skills
Barry Brophy
In conversations, people use concrete language to communicate with stories, examples, analogies, demonstrations, interaction, images and videos. Coupled with this, they use their voice, eyes, hands, body and emotions to add emphasis and punch. In presentations, however, people tend to speak in the abstract, fill their slides with bullet points, go way over time and speak without emotion or tone. This course explains why presenters do this and how to put it right. It gives many tips on creating content that you can present as naturally and energetically as you would in a chat with a friend.

The Move Up a Grade Revision Strategy
Ross Maynard
Exams are a difficult time. There are no quick fixes, but you can get a better grade with a good revision strategy. This course presents the revision strategy I used to get the second highest mark in the finals of my accountancy qualifications and 10 A's out of 11 exams through three years of accountancy study. The revision strategy guides you through each phase of revision, and the exam itself, to help you get the best possible marks.
