Default Re: Please help me learn my lines

Don't memorize it verbatim if you're only giving the presentation once. You'll sound like a robot or a bad actor, and you won't be able adjust the presentation to respond to audience reaction. Plus, if you forget a line, it may throw you off and it'll be obvious to everyone.

Memorize a fairly detailed outline of the points you're going to cover, and if there are specific passages that are particularly important or complex, memorize them word-for-word.

It'll be less work, and a better presentation.
