Miscellaneous / / December 03, 2023
The School of Speakers from the creators of the School of Projects is a course for teachers and anyone who wants to learn how to speak in public.
9 short lessons contain short and succinct videos with tips on speaking skills and practical tasks to help reinforce them in practice.
You will learn how to speak competently, interact with an audience, not be afraid to speak, work with unruly audiences and create fiery presentations on current topics.
If you have a topic that you have been presenting for many years, then during the course you will be able to update it, make the presentation more informative and stylish. If you are just getting ready to perform, the course will help you make your choice and prepare everything.
After lessons, a database of materials and practical assignments are available to you
and checklists for self-testing.
The skills acquired at the School of Speakers will help in participating in competitions, speaking in front of colleagues, and even in personal communication practice. And the best speakers who complete the course will be invited as speakers at the Geek Teachers Fest.
We want as many teachers as possible to be able to share their experiences with the audience and talk about the best practices in education. To do this, we came up with and launched this course.
