For non-native speakers of English, we may provide pronunciation and intonation advice feedback during rehearsal to improve the ability of the audience to not only understand the presentation, but shift the focus to what the person is saying, not how the person is saying it. Vocabulary and business idioms appropriate to the topic will also be emphasized to ensure that desired outcomes are achieved.
