Public speaking can be terrifying! These one-on-one coaching sessions are designed to help students become more confident speakers in any environment. In each class, students will practice for upcoming presentations, speeches, or interviews. During our first session, we will discuss the student's goals, upcoming projects, and comfort-level with public speaking. The student will be assessed to determine how future sessions should be structured. Students will work each week to improve their overall presence, focusing both on what they say and how they say it. Students are also welcome to bring accompanying visuals (PowerPoint, Google Slides, etc.) or materials (job descriptions, resumes, literature, scripts) to incorporate into our sessions. Our classroom is a collaborative community that is a safe space for practicing a very challenging skill (public speaking). Students will not only receive feedback from the teacher, but will also assess themselves. Scheduling Note: Each session is a one time session. Additional scheduling options available upon request.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Joy and I’m so excited to welcome you to our Outschool family. Let me share a little about myself. I enjoy teaching students to communicate confidently to accomplish their goals. Their goal could be acing a school presentation or convincing mom to purchase the new popular video game. You will find that my classes include topics including:
- Confident Communication Skills
- Communication Skills for Introverts
- Public Speaking & Presentation Skills
- Goal Setting for Success
- Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel
Currently, I have my bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and I am a Certified Life and Leadership Development Coach. I have experience presenting in the classroom and corporate setting. I’ve worked for multiple Fortune 100 companies and will bring real world experience in a fun and interactive environment.
Our classes are a partnership between the students, their families, and myself. Each class is hyperactive, meaning the students will be speaking and participating throughout class. All students will have the opportunity to share their thoughts, experiences, and presentations to the class. Students will have the opportunity to offer and receive feedback from their peers. This not only creates a collaborative learning community, but also reinforces learning. I also weave the student’s interests into the lessons to keep them engaged.
When in class, you may hear a funny tune. I'm no professional, but I love to make up impromptu songs, rhymes, and raps on almost any subject. So, your student is not on YouTube or TikTok. It's just our creativity on full display.
