Behind every outstanding performance stands the mastering of some technique.
Learn how to help your students master the art of speaking.
Do you wish your speech to be clear, articulated and expressive? So that your audience understands and remembers your messages and you present as comfortable, confident and relaxed? Besides a carefully written speech and charismatic personality, to be a persuasive speaker you also need a capable and cultivated voice as well as conscious and intentional diction.
Oratory is skilful and effective/persuasive public speaking.
In this webinar you will learn vocal techniques that make a good speaker and how to teach them:
Breathing, voice quality (resonance) and articulation to empower your vocal capacities, diction and emotional connection to empower your presentation and memorability.
Reciting poetry is a form of oratory that is particularly challenging to perform because the poetic text usually contains some form of metrics that hides the logical emphasis and presents in unnatural language structures.
You will learn how to perform poetry naturally and expressively - analyze the text, mark it and compose rhythm, melody and intonation for your poem.
