Speak up! – Speaking With Confidence and Power Part I – 4 Day Camp
Public speaking is not just about the words spoken, it’s how you show up in the room (virtual or in person). This course is ideal for introverts who may shy away from speaking in groups.

Whether on stage or in a small group, insecurities can pop up when speaking. These insecurities don’t typically show up in what we’re saying, but rather how we are saying. During this interactive 4-day camp, students will practice the basics to commanding a room. Each day we will review a skill and spend the majority of class practicing the skill. During each class, all students will have an opportunity to practice, as well as give and receive feedback to each other. Day 1: Introduction to public speaking. How do you show up? How do you want to show up? Students will learn the basics of public speaking and share their experience with public speaking. Students will set personal goals for improvement during the camp. Day 2: Confident Body Language. Is your body language saying what you want it to? Students will learn how to engage an audience (big or small) with body language. Day 3: Powerful Tone. Is your tone supporting your message? Students will learn how to keep an audience engaged with their tone. Day 4: Confident and Powerful Presentations. Students will practice their skills with short, fun presentations. Our classroom is a collaborative community that is a safe space for practicing a very challenging skill (public speaking). To create a more comfortable environment, students can help decide what fun topic will be used for their practice presentations. No prior experience or knowledge is required for this course.

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.
