"I'm not sure if I understand your question."

"This talk/presentation is specifically relevant to..."

Other tips: 

• Make (100%) sure you know the correct pronunciation  of (certain) words! Especially specific words related to your topic. 
  e.g. 'Euthanasia', 'conspiracies', 'psychology'(and other words starting with /ps/) 

Other tips:

• Free speech not your thing? Prepare what you say in advance. But.... try to sound 'natural' during the presentation.
• TIME yourself when practicing. We will stop you when your bit is too long.  

Other tips:

• Watch and learn. 
• TedTalks, vlogs, YouTube, documentaries etc. 
• Notice native speakers' accents and pronunciation. (And even the way they talk/connect sentences)

Did I forget anything?
