 |
Hi there, I'm Liz Banks. Many people come on our First Presentation Skills course to overcome their fear of presenting. They use phrases like:-
|
to describe how they feel about the prospect of speaking in public ... when they arrive.
But you can go from "Terrified" to "Confident" in just one day!
Our Skillstudio trainers understand that it's quite natural for you to feel very nervous or even terrified when presenting for the first time.
But they'll help you conquer your fears using simple, practical techniques which you'll learn on our one-day workshop.
The same people who felt worried before the course simply can't believe that they have managed to control their nerves, stand up in front of an audience and successfully deliver a presentation. As one scientist from the Health Protection Agency rejoiced, "The impossible has been achieved.”
First Presentation Skills - confident presenting in just one day
Our one-day public and in-house First Presentation Skills workshop is ideal for you if you currently have little or no experience of public speaking but expect to take the plunge soon.
With a maximum of 8 people on the workshop you'll get lots of help and personal coaching from your expert trainer.
In just one day you'll
- Have taken the first steps to becoming a good presenter
- Be able to control nerves and deal with common fears
- Be able to speak more confidently in front of an audience
- Know how to develop ideas
- Know how to plan and structure a presentation and
- Have enjoyed the experience!
You'll leave the workshop with your own personal development plan and a toolkit of techniques to turn that plan into action. You will also leave the workshop with a buzz and a great sense of achievement.
Our public workshops take place throughout the year in London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow & Edinburgh. (See our calendar further down this page for workshop dates.)
And you can book your place on a workshop for just £297 + VAT (£348.98 including VAT).
You'll enjoy the unique learning experience
Our trainers use a wide range of practical, enjoyable, tried and tested approaches to bring out the best in you. So you'll find your workshop highly interactive, supportive and fun. You will quickly build your confidence as you experiment and learn.
|
You'll learn a number of simple practical techniques to help you relax when under pressure and to take control of your nervous energy before you present. |
|
You'll learn voice exercises to help build vocal confidence. And as your trainer is also a voice coach they will provide you with the personal coaching you need to succeed. |
|
Your trainer will have a strong background in drama. So they are expert in helping you to use body language to develop a stronger more confident presence. |
You'll be surprised at how much you can progress during our one day of intensive training.
