My Project

Technology continues to shape the landscape of education and the workplace, students must be equipped with the necessary skills to succeed in this ever-changing environment. Among these crucial skills, proficiency in public speaking is essential.

Practicing public speaking at a young age will help build skill and confidence in these young students.

Yes! My students are only 5 and 6 years old. It's never too early to start learning and practicing their public speaking skills. The speaker, microphone and stand will provide my students the necessary equipment for their monthly presentations. The more they practice and receive feedback, the more comfortable they become with public speaking. Help my students find their confidence and power in using their voice!
