Will this course help my child become confident?
The main objective of the course is to build confident leaders. We work on three levels, first help the child prepare the speech content, then practise with voice modulation with physical aspects and then finally perform and learn to manage pre-performance anxiety and overcome their stage fright.
Will you give my child practice material?
To help your child practice the concepts that they have learnt in their sessions, we provide additional learning materials. You can find this in the ‘My Courses’ section.
What if my child forgets what is introduced in the class?
We provide notes after every session for the child. You will also get to watch the session recordings after the session, in case the child wishes to recap any concepts. You can find these extra materials in the ‘My Courses’ section.
Will the course cover vocabulary, writing and grammar?
We will definitely help children structure their thoughts and write a good speech. However we won't be teaching the children to read or write or focus exclusively on vocabulary. The focus will be preparing the children to perform on a wider stage with confidence.
How do you conduct Public Speaking classes online?
Public Speaking sessions are conducted online on our custom-built interactive video platform called Funroom! They are live interactive sessions between learners and facilitators where we teach all the pillars for public speaking and advanced techniques. There are lot of interactive exercises with performance sessions at end of each module to make your child a confident speaker
