It is a great match! Improving my communication skills and knowing how to do a public speech is a great knowledge to have. Also the speaker presents how and where to research for stories and ideas that you may use during your speeches.

By Eline De Picker on 1/31/2021

Practical content and advice, nicely applied, and immersed with stories. However there is quite some duplication in stories, and sometimes that concept of storytelling is somewhat overdone. But still very appealing and interesting.

By Patricia Lindsey on 12/23/2020

Desmond is an amazing teacher, he is very detail when telling an stories you do have to have a good attitude. Desmond I love story about the musician. And how that we have to practice practice over your speech always have preparation. Looking at the big picture.

This course was a good fit for me because the Instructor left no stone unturned. He was very thorough, he humanized the material by including personal experiences and broke all of the course content down, making it easy to understand and properly execute it's application.

The topic was interesting

By Jennifer Duffy on 10/7/2020

A lot of redundancy.

By Adrianne Nelson-Caviglia on 9/16/2020

Some things were good, but I found some of it was repetitive. Also, if there were more visuals instead of watching the speaker talking the entire time. I like the slides the were shown.

By Virginia P Byrd on 9/13/2020

Great info that can be used for personal and professional speaking.
