Additional Strategies
Use evidence and reasoning to support each of your main points. Present both sides of the issue. If you forget to address what your critics believe, your argument will be one-sided. Make sure you address any possible counterarguments, then demolish them with strong evidence to support your points.
Use transitions for clarity. These can be internal summaries or previews. For example, Now that I have discussed X, and explained why it is so important, I am going to turn to Y and show you the benefits
Conclusion
Give a signal phrase such as In conclusion or In closing or As I bring this to an end and a clear summary of each main point.
