Seen as you say presentation rather than speech or address, Id say you are aiming at around 2000 words as a maximum.
100 words a minute is a fair clip to be speaking at if you are also demoing examples, slides, etc. With pauses, pace and interruptions, I wouldnt want to be trying to fit more than this in.
For your personal style, youll have to practice it and see.
Good luck.

Well, if you’re going to just read the whole thing, about 3000. 2500 if you read kind of slow or expect possible digressions. But reading an entire presentation is not very interesting and can be hard to follow, and your teacher might not appreciate it unless that’s what he/she asked for. An outline might be better.
