The public speaking course is intended for Israelis who speak reasonable english (i.e.- not native speakers) who need to talk to an English-Speaking audience. The course combines training in rhetorics with improving flow and self confidence using English.
The course’s aim is achieved through intensive practice in front of live audience under personal guidance and coaching. This amount of exercises is accomplished thanks to long sessions (4 hours per session) in which complete immersion in English is exercised.
The practice sessions simulate speaking to audience under a variety of business-related scenarios: committee discussions, team work, presentations, negotiations and debate. Every exercise begins with a briefing on the persuasion techniques involved and the etiquettes relevant to the practiced business situation. After the briefing all the participants practice live (no exemptions, no excuses…) and then each participant receives a detail and personal feedback reports, complete with recommendations for the next public speaking exercises.
