If you speak English as an additional language and have ever felt like you have more to say than you can fully express–or hesitated to share your thoughts in a meeting or conversation because of the pressure of all eyes on you, this workshop is for you.

This workshop is designed to empower multilingual speakers with techniques to confidently express themselves and connect with their audience. Whether you’re preparing for presentations, leading meetings, or simply looking to express yourself more comfortably, this workshop will equip you with the tools to communicate with clarity, authenticity, and impact.

Led by a linguist and a theater director, this workshop helps you harness tools for intelligible pronunciation– such as intonation, stress, and rhythm– with theater-based techniques like improvisation games to overcome the fear of speaking in both professional and social settings. You will engage in dynamic group exercises to develop the skills to speak in front of others or engage in conversations with confidence, using body language, posture, and movement to enhance your message.

Objectives 

• Build confidence and overcome your fear and hesitation when speaking with or in front of others.

• Enhance your English Pronunciation by employing intelligible intonation, stress, and rhythm.

• Develop a stage presence through acting techniques and stage methods to effectively connect with your audience.
