Split screens while presenting and sharing

Hi, I need to present via zoom, when I'm doing so, the presentation mode goes full screen and I cannot see my notes (I either have to use my phone and it's too small, or print them our, but it's long). Is there a way I can split screens and one part will be a shared presentation, and another my notes? When I just do the split screen (on MacBook pro), it works, but as soon as I start presenting via zoom, it goes full screen back. thanks in advance!

For screen sharing and looking at other apps at the same time it works best to use 2 screens (most computers support a second screen via HDMI). Even your TV can serve as a second screen. Also after screen sharing go to "show meeting" for more options.
