Sorry guys I didn't want to overwhelm with information, but seems I did the opposite :)
I am visually impaired but it is to the extent to which I can't see Power Point slides or any presentation aids (flash cards etc). 
I use the screen reading package JAWS to create the initial presentation slideshow. 

I expect not to have any screen reading software pre-installed on the computer I will be using in class. 
I could always use my own laptop, but that would mean changing the configuration of the projector cables the college has setup. 

The presentation is going to be law based, which I studied last year, but I am unsure of the topic or any additional information about the tutorials. 

I don't know or use brail, I primarily work with technology. 

I guess what I'm thinking of is, when there is a slide on the projector screen, that they can see, what could I do in order to prompt or assist myself? 

Hope this information helps you understand the situation. 

Kindest regards, 

Niall.
