Course Description

This course is designed to illuminate why the best public speakers can enthral an entire room full of people. Anyone who needs to learn about speech delivery, how to give oral presentations or how to speak better publicly can benefit from this course, with its in-depth approach to building confidence and creating actionable awareness.

Learning public speaking may seem impossible. But it isn’t a skill reserved for the few. Anyone can be an incredible orator.

In this course, you’ll get equipped with a skill set that enables you to harness the art of public speaking.

Delivering a great speech is a massive accomplishment. For an audience, experiencing a stirring rendition is both exhilarating and uplifting. Because a powerful speech appears so effortless, it’s easy to assume delivery is innate to the speaker. But the key to being among the best public speakers is to discern what each speech or presentation needs and be aware of what you have to offer.

This course will delve further into learning how to master public speaking. It will not simply iterate how the best speakers have accomplished their feats, but it will open avenues to how you can personally apply the best practices in effective public speaking.

With actionable plans, you’ll build awareness to be memorable, exhilarating, and enjoyable in ostensibly effortless public speaking. The course will tackle speech writing, personal development (in the context of learning public speaking), and - most of all - how to deliver.

You’ll learn how to deliver your core message with impact. You’ll see how to create an effective speech at short notice.

In addition, you’ll see how to cope with hang-ups and qualms that tend to hold people back, learning how to avoid these obstacles in your own personally developed strategy. On top of that, you’ll know what to prepare for with questions in a public speaking setting.

Mastering the art of public speaking does not require some elusive enigmatic charisma or other idealised personality traits. It is something that shares authenticity from an individual to their audience. This course will activate your ability to convey yourself with confidence, relevance, and power in any public speaking situation.

It's short and without any materials, examples. I'd be pleased if there was some short examples how to hook the attention in addition to 30 seconds speech that you may change your tone for it. For presentations as well, I've payed enough to have some example presentations the speaker was talking about. I really think that I could get all this info for free just watching YouTube or how other speakers behave.

By Konrad Godt on 3/4/2024

The presenter here is a speaker who demonstrates what good speaking is all about. He covers many details which when mastered, and taken into account, can transform a good speech into a great one. In addition, he emphasizes the measures needed to ensure success. Visiting the venue where the speech will take place, getting a feel for the place, ensuring that conditions which can be controlled are addressed are points that surprise us, but they indeed make sense. For example, we should dress a little above the audience when possible, but we should dress for comfort. The speaker makes us aware of the measures we need to take, to ensure its success even when a number of things could go wrong. He explains why these details are paramount. Furthermore he addresses how audiovisuals are best exploited and reminds us that they can enhance our presentation and not end up distracting the audience. The most important point to keep in mind, is the purpose or goal of the speech, and how to keep focused on this goal. Last but not least, he reminds us to think about our audience, as they are the target of our ideas. Our ultimate purpose is to cause a change in thinking and a resultant action. This is a well formulated speech on how to give excellent presentations.

This course is thorough and has given me the needed impetus to take a leap forward in my public speaking career. Fantastic course all round.

By Gordon A Fiddler on 6/14/2022

I am an AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) speaker. I speak at Treatment Centre's and at times, on Conference panels. I first learned how to do this as far back as 1993. I even learned this in 1987 while in 4-H. Ever since I had developed a natural ability to speak in front of large crowds. My largest yet was 500+ at a Conference in Winnipeg in 2010. Sober by the grace of a higher power for some 21 years now.

By Roz Johnson on 10/25/2020

A slightly more advanced course, and it's perfect for my needs. Thorough and filled with nuggets of wisdom. Very good so far.

By Patrick OMalley on 5/8/2019

Better than the other Udemy course by TJ Walker, and it's easier to listen to this speaker. However, there's no way it's going to deliver on the "10x your impact in an hour", unless you were absolutely horrible,

By Thusara Wijesena on 4/30/2019

This is a very basic course but the materials delivered by this course are valuable. The lecturer shares his immense knowledge and experience openly without hiding anything. The way he spoke is very simple and can be easily understand by a non native English speaking student.

By Bineet Lenka on 6/22/2018

Udemy is best courses for marketing it help me a lot. It has different type of courses it make your life successful. This course is WONDERFUL! Just what I needed. , however. I am having a great deal of difficulty understanding the instructor. His accent to me makes it difficult to comprehend all the terms. I'm getting used to it now but I could use it a bit clearer.
