Why do we need to search for Public Speaking Workshop?

 

Alot of poeple assume that Public Speaking is learnt at home or self learnt watching other people and require no practice. Why outsource help for Public Speaking Workshop? When you search for a Public Speaking Workshop, remember these tools to watch out for:

1) Exposure

Exposing yourself to people of different ages, background and strangers is a big bonus to help you get a feel of an audience. When you expose yourself to an audience, you will learnt to be open and courageous. At home, there is minimal exposure to the outside world that is real experience.

2) Language

If you want to learn to do Public Speaking in English or any other language, you need to practice with those around you. Make sure to check what language is being used in the Public Speaking Workshop.

3) Practice

When you do the same thing again and again, you will be revisiting the strengths and weaknesses you personally have. The mistakes you make has a high chance of improving with much practice. Public Speaking will not be learnt in a single workshop. It has to be a few of them for you to reap the benefits and really learn the skill of Public Speaking.

4) Environment

Make sure the surrounding is a happy one. When you learn something new which is a personal Skill such as Public Speaking, you need to enter and experience it in a healthy and uplifting manner. Learning Public Speaking is a soft skill and it starts from your mind. Your mind is a fragile part of your body which needs much nurturing especially when learning something new. You should have alot of support and the right guidance from knowledgeable and experienced coaches.

5) Activities

Change is constant and so is the flow of learning. Try to sign up to a Public Speaking Workshop that offers different activities in the course to make you open and exposed to Public Speaking. It could start from simply introducing yourself, to understanding others introduction of themselves and seeing the outcome of other peoples ways of Public Speaking. Try conversational cards as a game to converse and speak with others.

6) Course outline

Just like any other courses, we need a course outline as a plan to visually see, refer to and to provide as a reminder to guide you through the progress. It should be in levels from beginner, to a master of Public Speaking.

7) Target

Set the target to be a master of Public Speaking at the end of the Public Speaking Workshop.  Start from small targets which could be, as aforementioned,  being able to introduce yourself in a confident and clear manner. Record yourself how you speak with others through the different stages of each course until the end, you will love the results and the new improved you!

 

What is out there?

Public Speaking Workshop is a niche course which is not widely available in Malaysia. Suka Studio offers 4-5 programmes a year named “Mic-Drop”, “Master Communicator Bootcamp” and “Memory Gym” which all support Public Speaking and Effective Communication in it’s own ways.

1. Mic-Drop

Remember that time when you went on stage, and held the microphone in front of strangers? You felt nervous, but you fought through and said "Hi" to everyone. Then people smiled and you felt stronger immediately! The next 10 minutes was an experience of a lifetime. Public speaking will give you the experience of a lifetime if done right with the right guidance.

 

Mic-drop is about creating a group of children and young adults to speak what is in their hearts and mind. We create a safe space for children to share something they are proud of or something painful they are going through that they find difficult to share elsewhere. Mic-drop is mainly to create a supportive community for children of all ages to just speak their mind, whatever that may be.

We know for sure, ever human’s core desire is to be heard. At Mic-drop we provide that space. With that, is the ability and skill to speak openly and honestly.

 

2. Master Communicator Bootcamp

 Would you like your child to be great in Public Speaking and have Effective Communication Skills?

We've come up with some great formulas to give your children a strong kick start to feeling confident, and provide them with useful tools they can use for the rest of the lives.

It is a 13-week programme scheduled every Sunday starting from the launch date. We are running the bootcamp for the 5th time now since its launch. Created to transform children from all backgrounds to become great Communicators and impactful Leaders.

By the end of the programme, each child will present in front of a panel of judges to show-case their development, and most importantly, experience real transformation. They will not only improve their public speaking skills, but also their English language and confidence 110%!

3. Memory Gym

It is an 8-week programme scheduled every Saturday starting from the launch date. Suka Studio will train your kids to remember better and memorise easily.  

As we all know, it is not just about memorising but also understanding. While that is very true, memory is equally vital in our livelihood as it also implies competency, accountability and reliability of a person.  Memory also plays a big part in Public Speaking  because a part of Effective Communication is knowing what to say at the right time.
