"5 Stars! Quality speaks louder than words, and the very first thing that comes to my mind when I am watching all the videos is that TJ Walker really put his effort & go the extra mile to design this wonderful course for anyone who is looking for a good public speaking course. He doesn't waste your time but instead, points directly to the most important thing to do in order to be a good & effective presenter.

*****

"5 Stars! This is a very well constructed training with patience and understanding for learning the audience. I would highly recommend this to anyone desiring training for public speaking." Brian Smith

*****

"5 Stars! I learned all possible points for an effective presentation and the speaker. The do's and Don'ts. The verify important one, TJ reinforcing every time that one should rehearse their speech in front of camera and record, playback, self evaluates and improves upon etc. Finally, ask for feedback from friends. I am not at all bored in listening to the course. One of my expectations is If I get downloadable notes like a bullet point on each specific topic. That will help the new people learning the Public Speaking or presenting skills." Palani Paramasivan

By Busari Emmanuel on 12/29/2022

Every communicator should take this course no matter the area of specialization. Tj teaches so well such that you could even become not just an excellent presenter but a good writer later on. I however kept looking for the discussion section. It would be better if there’s a room or group or community for those taking the course where ideas could be shared and questions could be asked and answered instantly before the next session. Frankly speaking, I have enjoyed every bit of this course.

By Katarzyna on 9/27/2021

its a very good course. I love the structure, that it is split into small presentations so it is easy to keep being focused. Also the key points are repeated a lot of times so it is really memorable. It's easy to believe that your advice work because you show your key points while presenting. really great course. thank you.

By Lorna Paul on 5/23/2020

My name is Lorna Paul, I live in ft Lauderdale Fl I'm so happy I took this class, it helps me a whole lot because I'm a divorcee I've been through some hard times in my life that i want to share with other people and i help people who's going through the same kind of difficulties or any difficulties for that matter. I have been speaking way before my divorce concerning other parts of life because I love speaking period. Would love to have a little bit more explanation about it but overall great course. I will be posting some video soon.

By Samy Basta on 5/8/2020

This is by far one of the best PS courses I've taken. TJ takes the time to address every aspect of public speaking, your move, dress, voice tone, etc. He really cares to review your homework presentation, and advise you. This course is a MUST for anyone who is serious about improving their presentation skills. Thank you TJ!

By Katelyn Duncan on 1/9/2019

The instructor was always responsive when watching student videos or if students asked questions. I liked how the videos were short and concise for each topic as it kept the student engaged and not overwhelmed. This is a great course for beginners. At times it did feel repetitive but I think this was to reinforce the points and to remember those key things if anything else from the course (i.e. practice and record yourself). I took away a few good points for public speaking but feel that some things I just can't change for the type of presentations I give at my job (i.e. not having a graph with more than one variable as sometimes I need to explain these detailed graphs or statistics in the presentation). I would have liked more tips on technical presentations but maybe this is an additional course I will take next.

By Omar Emad Alhijazi on 3/22/2018

i thought that it will be more useful for me, i really hated the Um and Ar Advice, i am not sure if i will take more courses for the same person.

By Nd on 2/13/2017

A really good, thorough course, covering lots of topics. There was nothing revolutionary new for me so far (somewhere on section 5), but it's wonderfully presented, and even as just a reminder it brings everything together in a very effective way. I'm not sure I personally would pay the full price for it (I got it on a Black Friday sale), but I guess if you know nothing about public speaking and you're looking for just one course to tell you everything from beginning to end, that might be the one.

By Joel on 12/27/2016

This is the same course as "public speaking in 24 hours" by same owner but this includes many additional useful tips, rules, recommendations and bonus materials. This is a very complete course. One big warning, as any other course only useful if you practice. The most complete course on public speaking you can find around. Amazing, Thank you TJ.

By Yiannis Pteris on 6/12/2016

Hi TJ, I really like the way you approach, explain and talk about any concept but because in this course the body movement, body language and eye contact are fundamental parts, it would be more beneficial for us if we could see your whole body, how you move around, the pace of your movement, your posture ... I believe that if we have an example, one model in our mind regarding the body movement, it would be more powerful than just the advice and tips you give, which are fantastic any way. THANKS.

By Ruth Fenton on 8/5/2015

This course is a must for anyone who wants to learn the art of outstanding presentations and public speaking. It provides a step by step guide to creating real impact, getting your message across and key strategies to improve your performance. Presented in a clear easy to follow format TJ really does provide value.
