Conquer the Fear of Public Speaking

Public speaking, presentation and communication skills

“I enjoyed Dr Ana’s Public Speaking Course. It was just what I required to build skills to engage in a public speech or presentation arena. It was intense due to time period but well worth it and learnt a lot in a short space of time. What I liked about the course was the fact that one on one attention is given and strengths and weaknesses are analyzed in a constructive manner in order to improve. Not only verbally at the lesson but in writing in order for referral. Nice warm sympathetic training was given and analyses during speech which was not intimidating. Happy that the course was not done style”. Anonymous - Auditor.


“I certainly enjoyed Dr. Ana’s Course in Public Speaking: the intense communication through the entire course, the feedback after each speech with the valuable lessons offered as Dr. Ana guided me with really good advice. I loved to listen to Dr. Ana in the various conversations before or after my speech, during which I picked up from her energy and learnt from her stories and advice. Even though I must admit that I felt a little nervous when I attended the first session, this changed as Dr. Ana had a way of making me so relaxed.
I have become much more positive in many ways. Dr. Ana has been such an inspiration to me and I have already made changes for the better, especially in my job: I was never able to talk in front of more than two people and immediately after this course I felt different and so much more confident. I am considering attending more workshops/courses by Dr. Ana”. (Anonymous - Accounts Manager)


“I enjoyed Dr. Ana’s Course in Public Speaking. The feedback was very helpful and very honest as well. I especially liked the fact that the feedback was both verbal and written which meant that I could refer to it as I practice my public speaking. I learnt a great deal about the art and essence of public speaking, the do and don’ts, but most of all I gained the confidence to face and handle my fear of public speaking”. (Anonymous - Lecturer).

Spanish

“I find value in Ana’s lessons because I find myself getting to know the basics at a pace that will accommodate me to grow into this new language. I like the personal touch that the teacher brings to the lessons. Her explanations about the Spanish culture are extremely invaluable”. (Anonymous - Prosecutor)

“Ana is not only a good teacher but also a great motivator. If I were just studying on my own, I would have already given up due to my hectic working environment, even though I have a desire to become able to speak Spanish. As Ana's lessons are private, I can learn at my pace and ask any questions. And as English is my second language, I also improve and keep up my English level as I learn with her. In addition to taking Spanish lessons, learning from Ana's experiences and achievements in life are also precious lessons for me". (Diplomat)

“I started going to Ana (no offense, but one tends to forget the title 'Dr' after just a short while ..) in May 2010 for Spanish tutoring. Having decided to expand my knowledge with an extra language, little did I know that I will learn so much more than just the pronunciation, spelling, etc. of a new language. It is impossible to just learn to make 'new sounds in a Spanish way' (Ana is from the Basque country and already an expert in the language just by growing up there) - more (much more than that) Ana inspires everyone around her to 'vibrate' at a higher frequency and taking on 'challenges and journeys' that seems obvious now, yet so concealed before. Ana teaches about choices and cultures, about being human and being alive! I signed up for a language and found a great deal more!” D M (Retail Manager)
