The lecture course trained you to hear a roadmap. This course puts you on the other side of the room.
Korean presentations open in a very predictable way. That predictability is a gift: the first thirty seconds can be prepared word for word, and a confident start carries you into the content.

저희 includes your group and excludes the audience. That is exactly right for a presentation.
