Course Details

This course is designed especially for professionals who speak English as an additional language. Improve your pronunciation, fluency and presence in speaking English publicly.

Using the same strategies professional speakers and actors use, build your confidence in different speaking situations, such as talking to one person, or presenting in a team meeting or in front of a large audience.

Understand and practise how to:

use improvisation exercises to handle on-the-spot communications or scenarios where quick thinking is needed
control breath flow to influence sound, speech and delivery
control and manage body language, eye contact and facial expressions
address and manage nerves/stage fright in a variety of situations
organize speech content into templates
use emphasis of key words to create greater impact
slow down speech
practise formal and casual pronunciation, intonation and word choice

By the end of the course, you’ll have practised the entire speech process, from planning your speech to execution. Every class includes a combination of theory/technique and speaking practice.
