How to give an oral presentation in French

by Lingoda Team

Published on November 18, 2016 / Updated on November 9, 2022

Eventually in life, the time will come when you will have to present in front of a group. If you are giving a speech in a foreign language like after learning French, it can be very challenging since it often adds extra insecurity to the mix. We will give you some tips on how to give an oral presentation in French:

Preparation is key. In order to succeed in your presentation, know your topic well. You will be the expert in the classroom and realizing this will boost your self-confidence and keep your nerves under control. Remember to use technology to your advantage, visual aids (maps, photos, film clips, graphs, diagrams, and charts) can enhance a presentation, but don’t rely completely on them since it might be distracting for your audience.

Pay attention to your posture, stand straight and don’t rock back and forth on your heels, or do anything that might distract from your content. Speak in a clear, audible voice, loud enough to be clearly heard in the back row.  Never, ever mumble and be confident about your research and content.

Learn languages at your pace

Tips to give an oral presentation in french.

• Structure and order . France is not an exception. Let the audience know at the start how your presentation will be structured. A brief outline will prepare them for what you are about to say.
• It’s not what you say but how you say it.  This may sound like a cliché, but it’s a general rule for life. Understand that you will probably be nervous, accept it and move on. Deep breaths will help control the speed of your speech and will give the impression that you are more confident in what you are saying. Avoid having spicy food or caffeine drinks right before and make sure your breathing pattern is normal.
• Talk! don’t read . Nobody enjoys seeing a speaker burying his or her face in a script, reading stiffly from a piece of paper. Try to talk from notes, or, if you use a written-out text, try to look down at it only occasionally. In a speech, it is crucial to be able to transmit the ideas and concepts that you have been preparing and working for so hard, so don’t worry too much about the words.
• Make eye   contact  with people seated in all parts of the room, another fundamental aspect of public speaking. Don’t be afraid of using your hands to emphasize your ideas. Sharing space with the audience can also communicate your interest in sharing your results with them, so don’t be afraid of moving around the stage to help you reach out to every corner of the room, and also cover up any nervousness you may be experiencing.
• Don’t be afraid of questions and interruptions.  Actually, this is one of the best things that can happen, because it shows that someone in the audience has engaged with what you’re saying, and, if you have the time to offer a brief response, it can actually lead to genuine progress on the point you were making. Plus, two-way conversation is always a tension-reducer.
• Always try to make an impact with your audience.  Something that they’ll remember. Finishing strong can be a good way to achieve that. Always be sure to have a compelling conclusion to your presentation in which you highlight and summarize the points you made to your audience.

How to Introduce Yourself and Others in French

Perfecting Les Présentations

• Pronunciation & Conversation
• Resources For Teachers

When you meet French speakers , you need to know how to introduce yourself and what to say when you are introduced. French can be a bit tricky when introducing yourself or others depending on whether you know the person to whom you are making the introduction(s) or even if you have had any contact with the person. In French, those circumstances all require different introductions.

Basic Introductions

French uses the verb  se présenter, not  introduire,  meaning to introduce something into something else, which translates into English as "to insert." The most basic introduction in French, then, would be:

• Je me présente. = Let me introduce myself.

Using s’appeler is the common way of introducing yourself in French. Don’t think of it as “to name oneself” because it will only confuse you. Think of it in the context of introducing your name to someone, and link the French words to that context instead of applying a literal translation, as in:

• Je m​'appelle ... = My name is...

Use je suis with people who already know your name, such as those you have already talked to on the phone or by mail but never met in person, as in:

• Je suis... =  I am...

If you don't know the person or have never spoken to him on the phone or contacted him by email or mail, use  je m’appelle,  as noted previously.

Introducing by Name

There are also distinctions between formal and informal introductions, as well as singular versus plural introductions, as noted in the tables in this and the subsequent section.

Meeting People

In French, when you are meeting people , you have to be careful about using the correct gender , as well as whether the introduction is formal or informal, as in these examples.

French Names

Nicknames — or  un surnom in French — are much less common in this Romance language than in American English, but they are not unheard of. Often, a longer first name will be shortened, such as  Caro  for Caroline or  Flo  for Florence. 

Cheek Kissing and Other Greetings

Cheek kissing  is certainly an accepted form of greeting in France, but there are strict (unwritten) social rules to follow. Cheek kissing is generally OK, for example, but not hugging. So, it's important to learn not only the words that go with cheek kissing — such as  bonjour  (hello) — but also the social norms that are expected when greeting someone in this manner. There are also other ways to say " hello " and ask " How are you? " in French.

How to present yourself during a french interview

When you're seeking employment, it's crucial to understand how to present yourself professionally in French. Whether it's during an interview, a conference, or a meeting, you must be able to discuss about yourself, your skills, your motivations, and goals. This is an opportunity to make a favorable impression on a potential employer and position yourself as the ideal candidate for the job. Here's a guide to some key phrases and examples to use during a professional presentation in French.

The initial interaction with the recruiter: "Parlez-moi de vous"

The first interaction with the recruiter is important. Your presentation, even if it’s brief, should capture your audience's attention and establish your credibility. The commonly asked first question is "Parlez-moi de vous." Introduce yourself with simple sentences (name, age, current position). For example, you can use the following phrases for self-introduction:

• Bonjour, je m'appelle (...) et je suis (...) = Hello, my name is (...) and I am (...).
• J'ai obtenu mon diplôme de (...) il y a (...) ans en (...) = I graduated from (...) (...) years ago with a degree in (...).
• J'ai travaillé en tant qu'(...) pendant (...) ans chez (...). = I worked as (...) engineer for (...) years at (...).

Example: “Bonjour. Je m'appelle James et j'ai 38 ans. J’ai obtenu mon diplôme de Harvard il y a quatorze ans en ingénierie. J'ai travaillé en tant qu'ingénieur pendant douze ans chez Microsoft”

Discussing your work experience and skills

The second part of your presentation should demonstrate that you possess the skills and qualities required for the position. You should really read thorough the job description to tailor your responses according to the required skills. Highlight experiences relevant to the position you're interested in and use professional vocabulary. Also, don't forget to conduct some research on the company to distinguish yourself from other candidates.

• J’ai de l’expérience dans le domaine de/du (...) = I have experience in the field of (...).
• Par exemple, dans mon poste actuel, je suis responsable de (...) = For example, in my current position, I am in charge of (...).
• Cela montre que je suis (...) = This shows that I am (...).
• J’ai d’excellentes compétences en (…) = I have great (…) skills.
• Au cours de ma carrière, j’ai énormément appris sur (…) = During my career, I learned a lot about (…)

Example: “J’ai de l’expérience dans le domaine de la technologie de l'information (IT). Par exemple, dans mon poste actuel, je suis responsable de la gestion des réseaux informatiques. Cela montre que je suis responsable et capable de gérer les urgences. J’ai d’excellentes compétences en résolution de problèmes. Au cours de ma carrière, j’ai énormément appris sur la programmation.”

Presenting your strengths and weaknesses

It's very likely that the recruiter will ask you the inevitable question about strengths and weaknesses: “Quels sont vos qualités? Et quels sont vos défauts?” How you respond can significantly influence the recruiter's opinion. It's important to prepare for this question and answer it spontaneously. Be honest and focus on your interlocutor's expectations.

What are your strengths?

Highlight qualities related to the job you're applying for. Even though this exercise is challenging, don't be overly modest. Here are some examples of qualities to emphasize during an interview:

• Organisé(e) = Organized
• Ambitieux(se) = Ambitious
• Créatif(ve) = Creative
• Discipliné(e) = Disciplined
• Flexible = Flexible
• Curieux(se) = Curious
• Empathique = Empathetic
• De bonne humeur = Good-tempered
• Aimable = Kind
• Serviable = Helpful
• Rigoureux(se) = Rigorous
• Compréhensif(ve) = Understanding

Here are some examples of phrases to present your qualities in different contexts:

• “Mon souci du détail est une force essentielle, garantissant constamment un travail de haute qualité.” = “My attention to detail is a key strength, consistently delivering high-quality work.”
• "Je suis connu(e) pour mon adaptabilité.” = “I'm known for my adaptability”
• "J'apporte une attitude positive à chaque projet.” = “I bring a positive mindset to every project”
• “Avec un fort sens de l'initiative, j'identifie proactivement les opportunités.” = “With a strong sense of initiative, I proactively identify opportunities”
• “Mes solides compétences en organisation se sont manifestées dans ma capacité à gérer plusieurs tâches simultanément” = “My strong organizational skills have been evident in my capacity to manage multiple tasks”

What are your weaknesses?

Flaws are natural, and everyone has them. However, be honest during the job interview and opt for real flaws:

• Distrait = Distracted
• Autoritaire = Authoritarian
• Sensible = Sensitive
• Indécis(e) = Indecisive
• Distrait(e) = Thoughtless / absent-minded
• Étroit(e) d'esprit / Têtu(e) = Narrow-minded / Stubborn
• Susceptible = Touchy
• Difficulté à gérer le stress = Struggling under pressure
• Bavard(e) = Talkative

You can also counterbalance your weaknesses with a positive statement, for example:

• “Je suis bavard(e) mais je sais quand il est temps de travailler.”= “I'm talkative but I know when it's time to work”
• “Je suis stressé(e) sous pression mais j'ai récemment commencé des cours de yoga.” = “I am struggling under pressure but I've recently started yoga classes”
• “Je suis naturellement timide donc je dois faire beaucoup d'efforts pour m'exprimer.” = “I am naturally shy so I have to make a big effort to speak up”

Don't hesitate to ask questions about the company and the position

When your presentation is finished and your interlocutor has asked their questions, you can in turn ask questions about the position and the company to demonstrate your interest and motivation.

For example, you can ask the following questions:

• “À quoi ressemble une journée type dans votre entreprise?” = “What does a typical day at your company look like?”
• “Quelle est l'ambiance de travail?” = “What's the working atmosphere like?”
• “How does the integration process work?” = “Comment fonctionne le processus d'intégration?”
• “Organisez-vous des activités de renforcement d'équipe?” = “Do you organize team-building activities?”
• “Est-ce un nouveau poste?” = “Is this a new position?”
• “Quelles sont les prochaines étapes du processus de recrutement?” = “What are the next steps in the recruitment process?”

Concluding the interview

When the job interview is about to end, don't hesitate to ask the recruiter if they have any further questions. If they don’t, you can then thank them for the time they've spent with you.

• “Avez-vous d'autres questions?” = “Do you have any other questions?”
• “Merci beaucoup d'avoir pris le temps de me rencontrer aujourd'hui!” = “Thank you so much for taking the time to meet with me today!”

Speech in French. Plus, How to Write a Speech in French.

How to start, what to include.

Spearheaded by the French Academy, the people in France take their language very seriously. While Spanish radio announcers laugh at their language mistakes, their northern neighbors are terrified of getting something wrong. So even though you know you may be judged critically by a French audience, you can prepare a good presentation by following the rules of good speech writing. Once you break the process down into small steps, it isn't as frightening as it appears. ‌ Writing a speech in French follows the same basic rules as writing one in English: introduction, body of the speech and conclusion. ‌

‌ Begin by welcoming your audience ‌. "Bonjour (or bonsoir) mesdames et messieurs" will do nicely, as it is the expected French greeting.

‌ Apologize for not speaking French perfectly. ‌ Unless you are a bilingual Parisian who refers to french as français, it is a good idea to admit up-front that your language skills are not perfect. Your audience will sympathize more with you if you are honest.

‌ Start your speech in French with a topic sentence that indicates you are witty and well-versed in French literature. ‌ If you can't think of anything, use a quote from a known French writer bordered by quotation marks, such as Sarte, Renard or Voltaire.

‌ Outline what your speech is going to be about in your opening. ‌ Open with j’ai and let your French audience know where you are going with your speech. It is important to stick to your topic, as the French will expect you to deliver what you promise. This could be an example of indirect speech.

‌ Shy away from humor unless you are practically a native speaker and understand the subtle way the French use double innuendos. ‌ Slap-stick American jokes will alienate your audience and leave you looking like a bumpkin.

‌ Pull your speech together in your concluding paragraph ‌. Politely thank your audience for attending, and giving you the courtesy of listening to your speech. Remember that the French stress manners. This could be an example of direct speech.

‌ End your speech in French with a memorable line that links back to your topic sentence. ‌ If you can't think of anything, resort to repeating the quotation you started with, or using another equally as memorable phrase. Pay attention to verb tenses and french grammar.

‌ Edit your speech in French for common grammatical mistakes. ‌ Remember that the French language has masculine and feminine pronouns, so check to make sure you use "le" and "la" are correct. Try to alternate seamlessly between past tense, present tense, subjunctive, and infinitive. Double check conjugation.

‌ Pronunciation takes practice, especially with french words. ‌ Practice your reported speech out loud and sound out your french vocabulary in order to avoid stumbling. Beginning learners should spend extra time on this.

• Ask a native French speaker to check your speech to be sure you got everything right.

It takes time to learn French, so go easy on yourself but you still must sound professional.

9) Je suis ______.

What Melinda French Gates’s Philanthropy Could Look Like Post-Gates Foundation

Under an agreement tied to her departure from the organization she co-founded, the philanthropist will receive $12.5 billion to pursue her own charitable goals..

Melinda French Gates , a major philanthropic player who created the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation alongside her former husband, Microsoft (MSFT) co-founder Bill Gates , is leaving the organization to pursue her own charitable endeavors. She will do so armed with a $12.5 billion payout and an eye toward issues affecting women and families.

“After careful thought and reflection, I have decided to resign from my role as co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation,” announced French Gates today (May 13) in a post on X , adding that her last day at the foundation will be June 7. “This is not a decision I came to lightly.”

Gates and French Gates, who have respective fortunes of $130.3 billion and $11.3 billion , founded the philanthropic organization in 2000 and have donated a total of $59.5 billion toward it as of last year. One of the world’s largest foundations with an endowment of $75.2 billion and more than 2,000 employees, it has funneled billions towards global development and health initiatives fighting tuberculosis, polio, malaria and AIDS globally . “I am sorry to see Melinda leave, but I am sure she will have a huge impact in her future philanthropic work,” said Gates, who will become the organization’s sole chair, in a statement .

The couple finalized their divorce in 2021 following 27 years of marriage. At the time, they agreed to conduct a two-year trial co-chairing the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation with the condition that French Gates would resign if either one decided they could no longer work together. While French Gates in 2023 confirmed her intentions to remain with the foundation , her recent decision to leave was spurred on by a desire to reshape her future charitable plans with a focus on women’s rights, according to a statement from the organization’s CEO Mark Suzman , who confirmed that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will be officially renamed the Gates Foundation.

French Gates will pursue her own philanthropic goals with $12.5 billion

The 2021 contingency plan also stipulated that French Gates would receive personal funds from Gates outside of the foundation’s endowment that would be earmarked for philanthropic endeavors if she left. Under the terms of this agreement, she is set to receive an additional $12.5 billion in funding. “This is a critical moment for women and girls in the U.S. and around the world—and those fighting to protect and advance equity are in urgent need of support,” said French Gates. “I’ll be sharing more about what that will look like in the near future.”

Even though gender equality is a key area of the Gates Foundation initiatives, French Gates will “not be bringing any of the foundation’s work with her when she leaves,” said Suzman. The philanthropist’s personal charitable efforts have included teaming up with MacKenzie Scott —who also struck out on her own philanthropic path after divorcing Amazon (AMZN) ’s Jeff Bezos —and other donors to pledge $45 million last year toward revitalizing Seattle’s waterfront.

Her primary alternative channel for philanthropic giving, however, is the firm Pivotal Ventures. She founded it in 2015 with an overarching mission to advance equality; pledging $1 billion of her own money to the organization in 2019 and creating a philanthropic arm known as the Pivotal Philanthropies Foundation in 2022 to support its grantmaking. The firm’s goals of improving women’s lives via access to capital and advancing female careers in public office have been reflected in recent op-eds written by French Gates for Bloomberg and Time respectively.

In addition to co-founding the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Gates and French Gates in 2010 also launched the Giving Pledge, a campaign advocating for the wealthy to donate the bulk of their fortunes to charity, alongside Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) ’s Warren Buffett . In an individual Giving Pledge letter written post-divorce in 2021, French Gates emphasized that Pivotal Ventures would play a significant role in her future philanthropic plans. “In the last two decades, I’ve seen that, at its best, philanthropy plays a unique role in driving progress by taking investment risks that others can’t or won’t to explore new ways of solving old problems,” she said in the letter, adding that “my giving will continue to focus on the people for whom barriers to equality are the highest.”

Who is Alexandre Sarr? What to know about potential No. 1 pick in 2024 NBA Draft

The owner of the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft is still to be determined by Sunday's NBA draft lottery . But the player taken with the top pick seems to be a near-lock.

French center Alexandre Sarr has been at the tops of NBA analysts' mock drafts for months. USA TODAY predicted he would be the first name off of the board as early as fourth months ago and stood by that prediction even after certain college players established themselves in this year's March Madness tournament.

Sarr, 19, played in Australia's National Basketball League this year and has stood out as one of the top prospects available in this year's draft class. With his tall frame, long wingspan and versatility on both sides of the court, he's made a strong case to be the first player taken in the 2024 NBA Draft.

Here's everything to know about the French standout hoping to become the second straight No. 1 pick out of his home country.

Olivier Giroud announces he's heading to MLS: 'Milan will remain in my heart forever'

The french striker will reportedly join lafc after the end of the current serie a season.

Olivier Giroud has announced that he will leave AC Milan at the end of the current season and head to Major League Soccer. The French striker will leave the Italian giants after three seasons where he won the 2021-22 Serie A title and, according to multiple reports over the past few weeks, will join Los Angeles FC. 

Giroud announced his decision with a video message posted on his social media accounts as well as those of the club. 

"I'm here to tell you that I will play my last two games at AC Milan. My career continues, but in the MLS. I am very very proud of everything I have done for the club in these three years. It's the right time to say it. Sorry, I'm a little emotional. My story with Milan ends this year, but Milan will remain in my heart forever."

Oli has something to say 💌😢 #MerciOlivier #SempreMilan — AC Milan (@acmilan) May 13, 2024

The French international joined AC Milan in the summer 2021 and scored 48 goals in 130 games in all competitions. After playing for Montpellier, Arsenal and Chelsea, he joined the Rossoneri where he won the Scudetto in 2022, scoring some key goals like a brace against city rivals Inter in the Derby della Madonnina. Giroud is now set to start a new adventure in MLS where he will play for LAFC.

Tom Brady, Jamie Foxx Take the Stage at Fox 2024 Upfront Presentation

By Joe Otterson

Joe Otterson

TV Reporter

• Tom Brady, Jamie Foxx Take the Stage at Fox 2024 Upfront Presentation 10 hours ago
• Snoop Dogg, Michael Bublé Join ‘The Voice’ Season 26 as Coaches 15 hours ago
• ‘The Floor’ Renewed for Seasons 2 and 3 at Fox, Host Rob Lowe Signs Unscripted First-Look Deal at Network 1 day ago

The 2024 Fox upfront presentation featured an appearance by Jamie Foxx in one of his first public appearances since his health crisis last year .

Foxx took to the stage and did his best to crack up the crowd of advertisers, a tall order considering the bar had yet to open. He gave it his all though, showcasing his trademark wit and charisma, reminding the attendees “You got free alcohol after this. Let’s get f—ed up!”

Popular on Variety

He also did his best to have a little fun with Fox Entertainment CEO Rob Wade, attempting to get Wade on his feet for a round of applause from the audience at least three times.

During Fox Sports’ time onstage, superstar quarterback Tom Brady made an appearance ahead of his debut as an onscreen NFL analyst . “Obviously there were a lot of opportunities that were presented,” Brady said, “but when I walked out of my first meeting with Fox, they reminded me so much of the amazing teammates that I had over a long period of time.”

Brady closed the show with a nice bit in which he “looked at the film” from earlier in the show, highlighting the strategic benefits of advertising with Fox before he, Michael Strahan, and Ramsay shouted “Let’s f—ing go!” to start the afterparty.

Fox’s ad supported streaming service Tubi was also heavily featured, with Lauren Graham taking the stage to talk about her upcoming Tubi series “The Z-Suite.” Graham then introduced the stars of the upcoming Tubi original movie “The QB Bad Boy and Me.” The prominent presentation of the movie was interesting, as NBCUniversal had earlier also taken the chance during their upfront to hype their upcoming theatrical release “Wicked ,” marking the second movie to get a push during the TV-focused upfronts .

The Fox News portion was also much better this year. Instead of relying on painfully stiff banter between the hosts of “The Five,” they instead brought out Benjamin Hall, a Fox News correspondent who was seriously injured while reporting on the war in Ukraine in 2022. Hall received a standing ovation from the crowd before handing things off to anchors Bret Baier and Dana Perino, who previewed Fox’s 2024 election coverage.

One would also not be remiss to think that Fox had hardly any scripted shows on its broadcast slate. The new fall drama “Rescue: HI-Surf” and the mideason medical drama “Doc” got trailers during the presentation, but aside from appearances by stars like Jon Hamm, Joel McHale, Rob Lowe, and Ken Jeong, very few Fox scripted shows got the spotlight.
