Class Experience

US Grade 7 - 10
Beginner - Advanced Level
The foundation of a really great speech is a really great outline.  Strong speakers are prepared speakers.  Learn how to create an outline with a clearly stated (1) introduction of a topic, (2) supporting points that connect to the topic, and (3) a powerful conclusion. 

A good speech outline helps organize your thoughts and clearly present them with poise and confidence.  Discover tips to confidently deliver a convincing speech.  As a contest judge and public speaking teacher, I share information about speech judging criteria that will speech delivery.
