This course was a game changer for me, I used to be nervous even raising my hand in class. Now, I'm moderating discussions with confidence. The mentors didn't just give me feedback, they helped me discover my voice. I used to second-guess everything I said. Not anymore

What really impressed me was how personalized everything was. We weren't reading out of a book, we were applying it in real-time and receiving instant feedback. The live coaching sessions were grueling but liberating. I feel more prepared than ever for Model UN and college interviews

I thought I was a good speaker until I watched the recordings and how much I had to improve. The 1-on-1 feedback was refreshingly honest. I left with skills that I will take throughout college and beyond

As a global relations student, I've had public speaking classes before, but this was different. The emphasis on high-pressure communication and disciplined delivery tightened me up. I am now better able to articulate complex ideas, which is exactly what I needed.
