- Access Your Work: Start by opening the Google Slides presentation you want to narrate.

- Unveiling Speaker Notes: In the "View" menu, click on "Speaker Notes." This is where you'll add your script and narration cues.

- Craft Your Script: Beneath each slide, write your narration script in the speaker notes section. Be concise and clear, providing cues for when to advance to the next slide.

- Embrace the Mic: Go to the "Slide" menu, choose "Record narration," and follow the prompts to allow Google Slides to access your microphone.
- Test Your Setup: Before recording, run a quick audio test to ensure your microphone is working correctly.
- Start Recording: Click the "Record" button and begin your presentation, speaking along with your slides as you go. Google Slides will capture your voice and sync it with the slides.
- You can also add existing audio if it is available from insert tab → and click audio.

- Fine-Tune Your Delivery: After recording, you can play back your narration to review and edit it as needed.
- Accessible Sharing: Share your narrated presentation with your audience, and they can watch and listen to your voiceover online.
