Testimonials
WHAT OUR PAST PARTICIPANTS SAY 1. "During the Speak Confidently online course, I acquired a range of invaluable skills. Gaye's expertise allowed me to delve into various aspects of public speaking, including impromptu speaking and structured speeches. Her guidance was instrumental in helping me develop these skills and significantly boost my confidence. I wholeheartedly recommend the Speak Confidently course to anyone looking to enhance their public speaking skills and overcome the fear associated with it." Michelle Williams 2. I was lucky enough to have a friend recommend Gaye to me – thank goodness I did! I had a big talk to prep for a conference in Nashville with 5000 people attend – and this talk was to my peers who chose to come to my session during the conference and my talk encompassed teaching them things about my business, that might help them grow theirs. Gaye is calm – that’s the top word for her. She says things to help you change how you are talking without offending you – and that’s also key. Everyone wants to learn however its hard taking criticism but this never felt like it. We did some groups sessions and also 1 on 1 sessions – both being invaluable to me. And how did it go? Well, I feel it really well – I came off the stage, thinking – yeah I did it! No hesitating, pausing enough to breathe (I do speak very fast normally), and people asking questions at the end as well. It couldn’t have gone better! Thank you, Gaye, – I really appreciate your experience and guidance." Sarah Bloxham - Insurance & Mortgage Advisor 3. "I was looking to improve my public speaking skills when I came across Speak Confidently. I did have some public speaking experience, but I wanted to brush up on my skills and get some feedback on how to improve. The classes were excellent; small sized in a supportive environment which allowed me to come out of my shell and try things out. I gained some great tips and tricks but most importantly I gained confidence to stand up and speak. Gaye at Speak Confidently was awesome! I would highly recommend this course for anyone wanting to improve on their public speaking." Sarah Berman - GM Macular Degeneration
