The Art of Public Speaking: A practical public speaking workshop using acting techniques.

From 29.21 Fr /h

Class Description

Public speaking is a skill that can open doors in every aspect of life, from school and university presentations to job interviews, business pitches, and everyday communication.

This interactive workshop uses practical acting techniques to help participants become confident, authentic, and engaging speakers. Rather than focusing on theory, students will learn by doing through theatre exercises, voice training, storytelling, improvisation, and presentation practice.

Participants will discover how to manage stage fright, project their voice with confidence, use effective body language, organize their ideas clearly, and connect with any audience. By the end of the workshop, each student will deliver a short speech and receive constructive, personalized feedback in a supportive environment.

No previous acting or public speaking experience is required—just a willingness to participate and grow.

Extra information

Suitable for beginners and anyone looking to improve their communication skills.

Wear comfortable clothing that allows for movement.

Be prepared to actively participate in speaking exercises, and short presentations.

Please bring a notebook and a bottle of water.

This is a judgment-free, supportive environment where making mistakes is part of the learning process.

Communication is the most versatile and sought-after skill today. Whether it's to succeed in an oral exam, convince during a job interview, lead a professional meeting, or simply overcome shyness and express oneself clearly, speaking is something that can be learned and practiced.

I offer you tailored support to unlock your potential, structure your thinking and give impact to your interventions, both oral and written (in person or online).
The strategic focus of our work:
Ease and Oral Eloquence: In-depth work on non-verbal communication (posture, gaze, gestures) and paraverbal communication (voice management, intonation, rhythm, silences).

Managing stage fright and stress: Breathing and grounding techniques to overcome the fear of public speaking and transform stress into positive energy.

Structuring techniques: Learning impactful argumentative structures. How to capture attention from the first few seconds, maintain audience interest, and conclude with a powerful message.

Written expression techniques: Clarity of style, choice of vocabulary, writing of professional emails, reports or impactful speeches.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

Preparation for TCF Canada, DEFL and DAFL for all levels.

I have a master's degree in business engineering and international trade, a certification in French as a Foreign Language and a master's degree in teaching.

Methodology :
- Initial assessment: For each support I will carry out a diagnostic assessment to identify the student's strengths and weaknesses in the subject concerned (mathematics, French, science, etc.).
- Personalized approach: Courses are adapted to the student's level, with individualized monitoring. This includes practical exercises, targeted revisions, and explanations adapted to each learning pace.
- Progressive objectives: we set short and long-term objectives together to motivate the student and measure their progress.
- Learning techniques: I use interactive methods (online exercises, educational games) and revision sheets to help memorize and understand key concepts (flashcards, etc.)

Typical sessions:
- Course of the sessions:
- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to introduce and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.
- Questions and corrections: 10-15 minutes at the end to answer the student's questions and correct mistakes together.

I help professionals communicate clearly and confidently in meetings and stakeholder conversations in English.

If you need to lead discussions, explain decisions, or handle pushback — this is for you.

Many professionals can speak English, but struggle to:

Lead meetings confidently
Explain ideas clearly and concisely
Handle difficult conversations
Respond effectively to questions or challenges

That’s what we focus on.

With over 15 years of leading international programmes, I understand how communication works in real business environments — especially under pressure.

Sessions are practical and focused on real scenarios:

Leading and structuring meetings
Explaining complex ideas clearly
Handling questions, objections, and pushback
Speaking with clarity and confidence

This is not general English.
It’s focused coaching to help you communicate effectively in real work situations.

👉 You’ll leave each session with clear improvements you can apply immediately.
