What's worse than reading off slides?

It is bad enough that some people tend to read from slides. Even worse is, when people put conversational words on the slides and then read it. What I mean is words like "Now let's go to the next slide" highlighted with an arrow. This is what you would say. It is completely useless for your audience and clutters your slides with distractions from the real content.
Put these transition words or phrases for dramatic effect ("here we go.......") on your notecard or just remember what you want to say. Your audience will thank you a million and you can take the next step towards more professional slides.
