About the course

My Confident Public Speaking course introduces the skills needed to plan, prepare, deliver and evaluate a successful business presentation for all occasions.

The ideal course for complete beginners, for the nervous speaker and for those who’d like to brush up their skills and build confidence.

Learners discover why we get nervous, what nerves do to us and how we can deal with them, and explore techniques for developing a strong, confident voice and effective body language to support the message.

This course features lots of practical speaking experience, useful exercises and my helpful feedback and guidance for future development in an enjoyable, safe environment.

My courses can be tailored to your business requirements.
