One-to-One Public Speaking Coaching

Public Speaking Coaching

One-to-one coaching in public speaking is the most effective form of tailored training and the quickest way to achieve your public speaking goals. It is one expert trainer focused solely on making you a confident, effective public speaker!

Who is one-to-one public speaking coaching for?

Anyone can benefit from one-to-one coaching. The kind of people that usually come to us for one-to-one coaching have a really important upcoming presentation or speech. It might be professional (a conference talk) or personal (a wedding speech, perhaps?), but the one thing that they have in common is: it matters.

Over a series of sessions we work with you to evaluate your current level of public speaking and work on the areas that will most improve your performance. Whether you are a nervous beginner or a seasoned professional looking for that extra bit of polish to move your presentation skills above those of your peers, we always see positive results.

What can we cover in the coaching?

As you would expect from someone focused on providing training tailored precisely for you, what we cover during these sessions is unique for each person, and we'll start our work together by evaluating what would most help you to improve your public speaking.

How do we get started?

If you are interested in one-to-one public speaking coaching then the first thing to do is to contact us here to understand exactly what you require and what training will best fit you. After this it’s all about having a live project to work on. As soon as you have a speech or presentation to give, we’ll work together across a series of sessions, writing, rehearsing (there will be video cameras, sorry!) and making your delivery the very best that it can be. In a lot of cases we’ll even arrange a test event for you to come and deliver the speech to a live audience, on stage so that you can get used to speaking, live.

Can we deliver the training remotely?

It is possible to conduct the training sessions via video link. We always prefer to deliver training in person (to increase our effectiveness and value to you), but with a little extra preparation our presentation skills training can be delivered virtually too.

What does it cost?

We work at a rate of £100ph (reduced rates are available for charities and start-ups), and so we can spend as much or as little time together as your budget will allow. If you give us an idea of your budget at the very beginning, we can tailor our work together to ensure that you get the most from the time we have!

Can our work together can be completely secret?

Absolutely. The reason that we cannot publish a client list here is because many of our clients do want their coaching kept a secret, which is fine, not a problem. All we can say is that previous clients include company Directors, NFP Board members and a smattering of really keen soon-to-be best men!
