Class Experience

Welcome to an exciting public speaking class, which in its totality is expected to help you gain more confidence in public speaking. The class will entail a live feed interaction between pupils and the teacher. The class will not only be delightfully interactive but will also aim to forge grace, composure and coherent expression for different situational speaking instances.  Please see the following breakdown below:

•	Brief welcome and salutation
•	Sequential flow for public speaking i.e. audience profile, communication strategies etc.
•	What makes a great opening?
•	What makes a great main body?
•	What makes a great conclusion?
•	Aspects to consider and incorporate for public speaking
•	The power of body language
•	Voice projection and cadence
•	Enchanting and effective story-telling

Students will have comprehensive speaking practice and above all fun while learning.
I am looking forward to interacting with you and help to tailor your approach to public speaking. Finding and projecting your voice in an effective way for fruitful communication is a scintillating experience.

Due to discussions about the importance of non-verbal communication and verbal interactions in the conversational classes, it is imperative to have your camera on. Please subscribe only if you are able and comfortable to interact with your camera on. Outschool policy doesn't require cameras to be on past the verification stage. However, as per this particular conversational class format, it is required to have your camera on for the full duration of class.

No prior experience is needed, but please be prepared to interact in order to build your confidence and maximise the benefits of the session.

Please note:

•As there is significant preparation made before each session, there will be no refunds for unattended classes. Special consideration will be made in some circumstances if communicated before the session begins.
•Feel free to utilise the classroom recording, if you miss a session. If there is a single student booked in for the class, unfortunately, there will be no content to review.

Looking forward to helping you on your communications journey.

Learning Goals

The students will have a fantastic opportunity to practice the different elements of public speaking and conversations in mock trials. Therefore, equipping them with essential tools for growing their confidence.

Teacher expertise and credentials

2 Degrees

Master's Degree in Science from University of Derby

Bachelor's Degree from Davenport University

I am extremely pleased to have qualified with a high honour Bachelors degree in Business before completing my Masters degree in Sport and Exercise Science. During the programs I was able to successfully complete relevant modules, such as, 'Presentation Techniques', 'Practitioner Development' and 'Field experience in Business'. These modules gave me a comprehensive overview of presentation etiquette and powerful public speaking experience. I have also received a certificate for my performance in 'The Project' competition, hosted by the West Michigan Chapter of Project Management Institute for representing my university(Davenport University). The competition allowed my to present in front of a panellist of professional judges and opposition universities within Michigan. I have done a variety of speeches around the world, interacted with various institutional leaders, presented to senior directors in multinational companies and I have thoroughly enjoyed my experiences. I am very appreciative and empathetic when it comes to interacting with different levels of students and adopt a bespoke communication style for the different personalities, in order to enhance their learning experience.
