Description
Would you like to put the strategies that you have learned about public speaking into action? This one-day course enables you to practise your public speaking in a context of your personal choice. You will be able to employ your vocal and physical tools with presence and impact whilst controlling your stage fright, speaking from the diaphragm, and building a deeper rapport with your audience whether that be an individual across a table or a room of 300 people.
You will need to complete the Introduction to Public Speaking course prior to enrolling onto this course.
What will I learn on this course?
On this course, we take time to build a tool kit of skills such as body language and posture, to breathing techniques, to building resonance and gravitas in your tone.

After working on using the voice to bring text to life, you will receive tailored feedback within the session and tips and tricks to practise in your own time or before a big presentation.
