Training Methods:

At the moment, due to the Covid19 virus all my teaching will be conducted via Zoom or Skype. I have done alot of online teaching using these methods and I have still found it effective and focussed. Please get in touch if you have any queries about how the online training would work.

A preliminary questionnaire helps to determine a client’s objectives and to ensure the sessions are tailored to their needs.
Emma will guide a client through experiential exercises, in breath and voice, physicality, dealing with nerves using Mindfulness and storytelling techniques to help engage an audience. Clients will be given constructive feedback and analysis of areas for improvement. There will be follow up sessions to embed the previous work and refine delivery.

By the end of the training, individuals will find greater confidence, authenticity and impact when presenting.
