Events & Calendars Communicating with Confidence: a Speaking Intensive for Women

This four day intensive speaking course helps students who identify as women focus on what and how they want to communicate in all aspects of their lives. Drawing on a variety of theatre techniques used by experienced actors to relax, focus their message and connect with an audience, this course will coach students in the art of confident and powerful communication. Students will be guided to uncover their unique strengths, develop an authentic and personalized speaking style and overcome obstacles to delivering their message. Working closely together in a positive, supportive environment, students will finish the week with the presentation of an inspiring speech. Limited to 12 Amherst College students.

Four sessions: Tuesday, January 17 – Friday, January 20. 2–5:30 p.m.
Facilitator: Susan Daniels, associate in public speaking
