That brings us to the end

You should use this right after your last big idea. Do not say it while you are still explaining facts. Say it clearly and slow down your voice a little. This gives the audience a second to process everything. Usually, you follow it with a 'thank you' or an invitation for questions. For example, you might say, That brings us to the end of the presentation. Does anyone have questions? It makes you sound organized and professional.

This is perfect for any structured situation. Use it at the end of a business meeting. Use it when you finish a school presentation. It works great for tour guides or podcast hosts too. If you are explaining a long process to a colleague, use it to show you are done. It creates a clean break between 'talking' and 'doing.'

Avoid using this in very casual chats. If you are telling a friend about your weekend, it sounds too stiff. Don't use it if you have more points to make later. It is a 'final' phrase. Also, do not use it if the situation is an emergency. You don't need formal transitions when the building is on fire! Keep it for times when you are the main speaker.

In Western business culture, 'signposting' is very important. Signposting means using phrases to tell the audience where you are in your speech. English speakers value structure and clarity. We hate 'awkward silences' where no one knows if the speaker is finished. This phrase prevents that confusion. It shows you respect the audience's time and attention. It is a hallmark of a confident, trained speaker.

You might hear people say That concludes my presentation in very formal settings. A more casual version is That’s all I’ve got for today. If you are in a hurry, you might say That wraps things up. Some people prefer We’ve reached the end of our session. All of these do the same job. They all signal that the 'information flow' is stopping now.
