Use simple and straightforward language to convey. Offer presentation material like handouts/slides in multiple languages to accommodate diverse language preferences. Speak at a moderate pace and enunciate words clearly to aid comprehension for non-native speakers. Avoid speaking too fast or using slang. If feasible, offer real-time translation services or interpretation to assist non-native speakers. Demonstrate empathy and patience towards individuals who may struggle with language barriers to support audience members navigating linguistic challenges.
