In this ongoing club, learners will gain an understanding of impromptu speaking and will practice their public speaking skills with their own speeches and presentations each week. ESL friendly. Being a successful public speaker requires children to draw on their own experiences of life, their beliefs and their own understanding of the world. Bringing this together in planning, writing and speaking gives them an opportunity to express their opinions. Public speaking is also a social activity. It reinforces the childβs confidence and promotes personal development. Children learn to perceive people, their behaviour and their reaction to what is being said. Each week will follow a different theme and the class will work to help learners develop their ideas, organise them and deliver an effective speech. Each class will also cover an important aspect of public speaking, such as making eye contact or supporting your ideas with evidence.
