presentation

/ˌpɹɛz.ənˈteɪ.ʃən/

nounprez · en · TAY · shun

Think: “PREZ + en + TAY + shun” — the PREZ (president) is in a TAY-lored (tailored) show, so it’s a preSENtation.

Yes, it's presentation. Don’t drop the second “e”: it’s preSENtation (present + -ation), and it ends with -ation, not -ashun.
