Description

Public Speaking. Imagine winning the next public speaking contest you enter. Wouldn't it be great to know that when you are competing in your next public speaking contest, that the judges all perceive you as confident, engaging and memorable? 

  In this How to Win a Public Speaking Contest course, you will learn the following: 

  * How to avoid the most common blunders most speech competitors make 

  * How to use video to polish your presentation 

  * How to tailor your speech to the judges' concerns 

  * How to improve all aspects of your platform skills 

  This course is delivered primarily through spoken lectures. Because the skill you are learning is speaking related, it only makes sense that you learn through speaking. 

  The skill you will learn in this class is not primarily theoretical or academic. It is a skill that requires physical habits. That is why you will be asked to take part in numerous exercises where you record yourself speaking on video, and then watching yourself. Learning presentation skills is like learning how to ride a bicycle. You simply have to do it numerous times and work past the wobbling and falling off parts until you get it right. 

  This course contains numerous video lectures plus several bonus books for your training library. 

  TJ Walker has been coaching and training people on their presentation skills for 30 years. Now, through the power of Udemy's online platform, he is able to give you the same high quality training that he gives in person to CEOs, Fortune 500 executives, and Presidents of countries. Only you can now receive the training at a tiny fraction of the normal fee for in-person training. 

  How long this course takes is up to you. The longest part of the course involves you speaking on video, critiquing yourself, and doing it over until you like it. But if you get to the point where you love how you look and sound when you present it will be well worth the time spent. And having this skill will save you time for all future presentations in your life. 

  You can begin improving your presentation skills right now. You may have an opportunity to speak out as soon as tomorrow, so why waste another day worried that your presentation skills are not up to high standards. Enroll in this course today.
