*How to get the attention of news bookers
*How to speak in memorable sound bites
*How to look confident and comfortable on TV
*How to rehearse on video
*How to get into opinion journalism
This journalism course is delivered primarily through spoken lecture. Because the skill you are learning is speaking related, it only makes sense that you learn through speaking.
The skill you will learn in this class is not primarily theoretical or academic. It is a skill that requires physical habits. That is why you will be asked to take part in numerous exercises where you record yourself speaking on video, and then watching yourself. Learning presentation skills is like learning how to ride a bicycle. You simply have to do it numerous times and work past the wobbling and falling off parts until you get it right.
This journalism course contain numerous video lectures plus several bonus books for your training library.
