             -   Speak naturally
             -   Make eye contact
             -   Don't do crazy things with your hands
             -   Don't do much more than speak, i.e. managing props etc.

2. Be impassioned

3. Balance the format of your information

Presenting yourself effectively can turn you into a presenter that shall be admired for a long time to come.
