TED 연사와의 대중 연설 (10-14세)

Students in this fun, interactive class will strengthen their public speaking confidence as they (1) practice public speaking and communication skills such as volume, tempo, and eye contact, (2) prepare different types of speech as about topics that interest them and (3) participate in conversation.  Through conversation, students become comfortable with one another in a safe, positive environment.

Speeches are typically 1 - 4 minutes long.  Students develop an outline for delivering presentations.  I provide students with an outline and resources before every speech via Outschool email.

Great speakers are prepared speakers.  Each speech provides students with opportunities to practice different speaking skills:

Speech #1:   "All About Me" Speech / Create an Outline
Speech #2:  Storytelling Speech / Speak with Expression
Speech #3:  Demonstration Speech / Use Words to Explain a Task
Speech #4:  Storytelling / Vocal Variety
Speech #5:  Report / Using Facts to Support Your Topic or Opinion
Speech #6:  Debate Skills / Using Facts to Support Your Position
Speech #7:  Persuasion / Using Words to Influence Others
Speech #8:  Motivational Speaking / Storytelling & Inspiration
Speech #9:  Impromptu Speaking  / Imagination & Acting Skills
Speech #10: SMART Goals / Using a Process to Pursue a Goal

As students practice public speaking skills, they receive positive feedback and encouragement to boost their speaking confidence. 

This class runs in 10-week cycles.  It is not necessary for students to attend these classes in order.  Students may also take this class more than one time to practice different types of speeches and public speaking skills.  I will extend the class and add more sessions if students want to learn additional public speaking skills.

This ongoing course provides novice speakers with opportunities to gain confidence as they practice new skills and receive encouragement. Experienced speakers will have opportunities to receive evaluative feedback to sharpen their public speaking skills.

I hope to meet your child in our online classroom!  Please contact me if you have any questions.

*** If your child enrolls in this class after the start date, you may want your child to attend my one-session class, "Create an Awesome SPEECH OUTLINE for a Presentation or Contest.”  The outline is a tool students use every week to prepare a speech.
