About the Workshop
Public speaking – these two words have struck fear and terror to people everywhere in the world and yet, we all need to do it!
This public speaking workshop is especially designed for both native and non-native speakers of English. Public speaking is one of the most important life skills a person can master. It is more than the ability to stand up before a group of people and communicate a message; it includes articulating and conveying ideas with confidence and credibility.
You will develop skills for better control of postures, gestures, movement and voice through our unique drama based exercises and games – the same exercises used to train and prepare actors for the stage.
Our aim is to empower you to speak confidently in any situation; whether at home, at school or at work.
This workshop focuses on the following topics:
- Physical presence
- Self confidence
- Body language awareness
- Voice and pronunciation
- Movement
- Language and fluency
- Projection, articulation and intonation
- Pace and delivery
Note
This is not a workshop on doing PowerPoint presentation or going through the theories of presentation skills. This workshop focuses on YOU as a speaker and how to connect with your audience. All exercises are 100% hands-on and active participation is required.
