Should I script my workshop or teach more freely?

You do not need to script your entire workshop word for word. Instead, use an outline to guide your teaching. Let your slides help keep you on track as you move through the material.

This approach gives you structure while also allowing flexibility and a natural, confident delivery. Prepare key bullet points for each section, and practice your transitions ahead of time. That way, your message will come across as polished but still conversational.

The goal is to sound like yourself, not like you are reading. Let your personality lead the way.
