    Instructor made me feel very relaxed on my first session, a great way to ease me into being comfortable with public speaking. It makes me want to continue going to the classes. It's also cool to see other students who are at different levels perform different exercises, I've learned from observing them too.

    Andrew's approach to public speaking different and interesting, focusing on feeling physically present rather than giving you a checklist of do's and don'ts. After receiving this "mindfulness"-oriented coaching, I felt empowered me to develop my own style and voice and just be in front of people to tell a story.

Loved his enthusiasm!!!! Wish more people in the class had just as much energy but makes sense since we are all nervous to talk publicly. He made it comfortable and had some really good points. Wish it was a multiple session and one class is not enough. Highly recommend!!

Public speaking involves speaking in front of an audience, whether the purpose is to inform, educate or persuade about specific topics. Public speaking is essential in conveying presentations, thoughts, and ideas. In a world full of information, presentations, conferences, and speeches are meant to inform audiences. Public speaking enhances communication and writing skills by persuading audiences through credibility, logic, and emotions. 

During Ancient Greek times, Aristotle taught the art of speaking and persuasion through public speaking. The art of public speaking has been thriving since antiquity, and now, into modern times, it’s an essential part of networking and enhancing career opportunities in multiple fields. In the fields of education, technology, science, and healthcare, public speaking is an important part of informing multiple audiences on differing topics. 

Why You Should Learn Public Speaking Online

Learning public speaking is an essential skill for furthering your career, networking, and building confidence while speaking in front of large audiences. While public speaking may be nerve-wracking, many find public speaking helpful for improving communication, vocabulary, and presentation skills. In a world full of information and data, presenting in front of crowds is essential for many fields, such as education, healthcare, and technology. The benefit of learning public speaking online is the flexibility of distance learning on your own schedule over Zoom or other online tutorials on Youtube.

Virtual Public Speaking Classes 

The differences between in-person and virtual public speaking classes are the notions of flexibility and attending class from your home office versus commuting to class. The virtual public speaking classes save time, money, and valuable resources. CourseHorse offers bookings of virtual public speaking classes, including courses held on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and other similar software. While virtual courses offer flexibility and are highly convenient, the cost of supplies and materials will have to be bought on your own time to be prepared for online courses. The cost of textbooks and workbooks are included in the bookings of online courses through CourseHorse. 

The first public speaking online workshop is Managing Personality & Behavioral Styles at Work. The workshop begins at $35 per person, taught by Perception Insights. The course offers insight into work styles and personalities, including the ways to adapt and motivate your team members. The workshop also covers the four primary behavioral types, their strengths and challenges, and how to overcome them. Rebecca Maxwell teaches the course and is an experienced instructor on leadership and management skills. 

A wide variety of virtual public speaking courses are available, from giving lively presentations to improv classes and fun ways to practice public speaking skills. Presenting with Impact is a course that eliminates nerves about giving business presentations and turning the opportunity into a more dynamic solution. The course focuses on ways to successfully navigate public speaking anxiety by considering your sense of presence, the information, and the audience to maintain your credibility as a speaker. The course is taught by Exec-Comm LLC, a company committed to improving communication skills, with presenting and writing in mind. The course is four hours long, starting at $575 per person.

Another workshop offered by Exec-Comm is Dynamic Interactions.

Online vs. In-Person Public Speaking Classes

The difference between online and in-person public speaking classes is attending virtually through Zoom, and the in-person courses have experienced instructors to provide live feedback. Both modalities of online and in-person offer the benefits of working on communication with other students, live feedback from experienced instructors, and the flexibility to learn in the classroom or live online. The cost of materials is included in the booking fee, including any required workbooks or textbooks. Bringing a notebook and pen to take notes is helpful for both online and in-person sessions. 

An electronic device with a steady Wi-Fi connection is needed to attend online courses. Attending courses in person requires the ability to commute, and online training offers a flexible schedule while students are learning from home. 

Can I Learn Public Speaking for Free Online?

It’s entirely possible to learn public speaking for free online through tutorials and studying influential public speakers, such as TED Talks and other resources. However, learning public speaking takes practice, and the guidance of experienced instructors helps with improving communication and confidence. Taking notes while watching lectures, talks, and presentations helps identify your communication style, strengths, and weaknesses.
