Speaker notes

How it is used

Used with presentation software or printed slide copies. Check display settings so private prompts do not accidentally appear on the audience screen.

Example sentences

1. I added the calculation method to my speaker notes so I could explain the figures without crowding the slide.

   Supporting detail stays available to the presenter while the visible slide remains simple.

2. Please remove the outdated client name from the speaker notes before tomorrow's presentation.

   Private presentation prompts also need updating, even when the audience-facing slides are correct.
