I have always enjoyed public speaking. Even as a child, I would learn jokes and anecdotes that I couldn’t wait to share with others. Every time, I would improve my storytelling skills with different intonations, sound effects and facial expressions that would give life to them. Later on, I became a teacher and had to use and improve these skills to talk about more factual and sometimes less entertaining ideas. I have now spent thousands of hours public speaking in different settings with audiences ranging from 1 or 2 to hundreds - and I still love it!

I strive to continue to improve my own skills but I also want to help others acquire similar skills and reap the rewards that come from them.

Whether you are preparing for a presentation at work, at university or you want to gain confidence in a public or social setting, I really believe that this course can benefit you.
