Dr. Roy Naraine’s supreme public speaking guide will 10x your presentation skills & help you capture the audience.

Created by: Dr. Roy Naraine

Last updated July 2020

Our take

Based on the ratings of 86 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in July 2020. No course pays to be reviewed.

Dr. Roy Naraine's course is a short introduction to presenting, pitched mostly at business settings, though the listing says it suits anyone. It runs 3.8 hours across 49 lectures, but the syllabus shows 25 of those lectures, about 151 minutes, sit in a section labeled as old, outdated videos. The current material is closer to 78 minutes. It covers building a presentation, home preparation, the auditorium, audience interaction, gestures and common flaws. There are no quizzes, assignments or exercises.

Reviewers like the delivery most. They call him clear, calm and easy to follow, and one notes there is no speech stumbling. Another enjoyed the bit of biology behind the presentation basics. One says they picked up useful tips for upcoming presentations. Complaints are mild. A three-star reviewer found it okay but wanted more interesting elements to hold attention, and one five-star review praises the slow English, which helps learners but may feel sluggish to others. Of 86 ratings, 75 are four or five stars, though most glowing reviews date from 2015 and 2016.

Think of this as a quick primer, not a training program. The last update was July 2020, and the syllabus lists no way to rehearse, which is the step one reviewer flags with "Now practice!" It is a sensible refresher before a work talk, especially for non-native English speakers who want a slow pace. Anyone after structured practice, assignments or feedback should look for a course built around speaking exercises instead.

Best forProfessionals new to presenting who want a calm, plain-English overview of posture, gestures and structure.
Skip it ifYou want speaking exercises, feedback on your own talks, or anything refreshed since 2020.

Pros

  • Clear, unhurried delivery with no stumbling, according to reviewers
  • Covers structure, posture, gestures and common mistakes in under 80 minutes of current lessons
  • Slow, plain English that one reviewer says everyone can understand
  • Adds some biology behind the presentation basics, which one reviewer singled out

Cons

  • 25 of 49 lectures (about 151 minutes) are an archive of old, outdated videos
  • No quizzes, assignments or speaking exercises, so practice is left to the student
  • Last updated July 2020, and a three-star reviewer wanted more to hold attention
The speaker was very clear. No speech stumbling. Content delivered everything you need to know about becoming a great presenter. Now practice!

The act of presenting in front of an audience is still one of the biggest fears people have to face. Whether you're just a student presenting your topic to a class of twenty or a businessman pitching to a full auditorium, it may still make your knees wobble. It can make you sweat in terror while your heart pounds so fast that you're afraid you're going to pass out. Many people think that this is something they could never overcome. They believe that all the great presenters were born in a suit with a microphone in their hand. They couldn't be more wrong....

★★★ Nobody is born a great presenter! GREAT PRESENTERS ARE FORGED! ★★★

They are forged by time, practice, constant learning and being fearless.

In this course I will teach you about all the ATTRIBUTES OF A MASTER PRESENTER:


  • Emanate confidence

  • Become fearless

  • Have a flawless posture

  • Charm the audience

  • Be dynamic and energetic

  • Be memorable and leave a long lasting impression

  • Acquire fundamental knowledge of BODY LANGUAGE

  • Communicate both verbally and non-verbally

  • Craft your speech like a professional

  • Be charismatic

  • and MORE!

Very intresting course. It has given me an accurate and deep understanding of how to organise my presentation. I now have a great insight into how our body movements can impact the presentation. The presenter is authentic. I truly recommend this course to everyone.

By Mariusz Rosinski on 4/21/2015

The course is very interesting so far but also it would be fine to add a subtitle to videos which would be a big advantage for them in the bargain.
