to the contentClass Experience
Public speaking is an invaluable skill that many people lack. It does not come naturally for most and takes practice; the goal of this class is not necessarily for students to become comfortable with public speaking, but to become *less uncomfortable* with the process. Students will learn what it takes to deliver an effective speech, as well as tips & tricks that help reduce nerves before and during the speech. These skills are transferable to real life situations! The confidence built by practicing public speaking will help students interact with others in social situations and will serve them well both in school and the workplace. This is a 4-Class self-paced version of the course I offer, where students learn at their own pace on their own time, and correspond between with me between lessons. For each class, students will view the content video (since most of the videos exceed the size limit available for upload to Outschool, I am posting them on a private YouTube channel made only for my classes, and then each video will be embedded within the classroom--at no point will students leave the OutSchool learning platform) with a specific focus and can then submit any questions via classroom messaging--while asynchronous, I will be available throughout the week to answer any questions within a timely manner. Additionally, there will be notes and suggested activities (not mandatory) that accompany each lesson. I am on Eastern Standard Time, which doesn't matter as much with this being an asynchronous class, but am most available from 7:00am - 8:00pm (EST) for correspondence. I will offer staggered sections so you can enroll during a period that works best for you! What we cover (topics subject to being rearranged based on need & feedback): Material will be presented via a prerecorded video with a supplemental handout of what is covered; students will be encouraged to ask questions, offer observations, and any suggestions via messaging in the "classroom", which will be addressed in a return message or additional video.
