A host essentially runs the show or introduces people.
A presenter would be like someone presenting a lecture, or an award
A compere is like a host, they would introduce a presenter
And an MC would be like a host as well, an example I can think of would be an MC of a panel at a convention like comic con.
Hope this clears up things
