Public Speaking is a skill that is very important for everyone to be able to do successfully in their every day lives. Yet, it is something that is very scary for many children, I want to help them build their confidence and their skills at the same time! This is a beginner's public speaking class, and there is no prior knowledge required, just an eagerness to learn! I have a degree in Communications and it is something I have always been passionate about teaching and sharing with others. Public Speaking in particular is something that in the professional world, and academic world, you use every day. Being able to stand up in front of a crowd and confidently share a story, inform others, or persuade an audience is a priceless life skill that I promise your child will benefit from. Throughout the course of this class, I will teach the basics of public speaking (using the PVLEGS method): Poise Voice Life Eye Contact Gestures Speed These are the key basics required when crafting a successful speech, and I want my students to walk away from this class with the knowledge and the tools they need to craft a perfect speech. This will be an engaging and entertaining course where your child can build friendships and learn, while building their confidence by giving them the skills they need to succeed. Being successful at speaking in public comes from an inner confidence that I hope to help foster in your children during this class, as we learn and grow together. I hope to see your child in my class!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! My name is Jenna and I am so excited to be teaching for Outschool!
I have a degree in Communications (with a focus in Advertising), and English! I have been an online teacher for 2 years now, and I love being able to connect with kids all over the world and share knowledge to help them grow.
My philosophy behind my teaching, why I do what I do, is to help children become more confident in themselves, and to share the knowledge they acquire in my class with others. I hope to create a spark and make learning a joy for my students and to help them become the best versions of themselves.
My teaching style is interactive and full of high energy. I want your students to be engaged and interested in what we are learning. I always strive for high-interaction based learning. I love discussion based classes where I can have conversations with my learners.
As a teacher, I have many interests and things I hope to bring to the table. I love Communication, Reading, and English. I have so many things I hope to share with my students, and learn about their passions along the way too! I am very passionate about movies and television, as well as sharing my knowledge with others.
My classes will all be focused (in one way or another) on helping your child grow into a better version of themselves. Sometimes through classes focused more on personal growth, sometimes through learning, but with the ultimate goal of helping your child succeed and for learning to be a fun and safe space for them to thrive!
* As this has been a recurring issue:
In the case of late students - I have a policy where I do not wait in the classroom longer than 10 minutes (regardless of class length) without students there. If your child misses class or is more than 10 minutes late as the only learner, please reach out and I would be happy to direct you to Outschool's happiness guarantee or arrange a make-up class time. Thank you!
