About

Public speaking is an important skill, but hard to do well. The good news is, presenting doesn't have to come natural to you in order for you to love and become good at it! In these sessions, there will be classes and practice for: Oral Reports Mock Interviews Impromptu speeches The Anecdote Group Discussion and two learners will be able to lead their own group discussions!
