The Art of Public Speaking: A practical public speaking workshop using acting techniques.

From 51 C$ /h

Class Description

Public speaking is a skill that can open doors in every aspect of life, from school and university presentations to job interviews, business pitches, and everyday communication.

This interactive workshop uses practical acting techniques to help participants become confident, authentic, and engaging speakers. Rather than focusing on theory, students will learn by doing through theatre exercises, voice training, storytelling, improvisation, and presentation practice.

Participants will discover how to manage stage fright, project their voice with confidence, use effective body language, organize their ideas clearly, and connect with any audience. By the end of the workshop, each student will deliver a short speech and receive constructive, personalized feedback in a supportive environment.

No previous acting or public speaking experience is required—just a willingness to participate and grow.

Extra information

Suitable for beginners and anyone looking to improve their communication skills.

Wear comfortable clothing that allows for movement.

Be prepared to actively participate in speaking exercises, and short presentations.

Please bring a notebook and a bottle of water.

This is a judgment-free, supportive environment where making mistakes is part of the learning process.

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.
