Skype coaching

- one-to-one help with public speaking anxiety and more

Are you fearful at the thought of making a speech?

Do you want to become a more effective public speaker?

Are you ready to let anxiety go?

One to one skype coaching could be the release you need.

Meet with me in the comfort of your own home and together we can:

• find a starting point to dismantle the fear holding you back
• plan and implement a step-by-step doable program tailored to your specific needs

Elements your program could include are assistance with:

• dis-empowering and re-framing bad public speaking memories
• using powerful strategies to transform anticipatory fear into excitement
• detailed planning and time-lining to ensure nothing realistically within your control is left to chance
• audience research - understanding what they need and want to hear
• speech content, structure and writing
• story telling in speeches
• speech practice/rehearsal
• voice - delivery - vocal variety, speech rate, pronunciation ...
• body language and gesture and more. Ask me!

What do you need to get started with skype coaching?

You need:

• A computer with a reliable broadband connection
• A Skype account! It's free. If you haven't got one, sign up here to download and set Skype up on your computer.
• A Skype compatible webcam and microphone. Do check. They could be part of your computer set up already.

How does meeting with you work?

It's simple! We arrange a time and date, log in to Skype, connect and meet - one to one.

How do we decide what to work on during a session?

That's simple too! You tell me ahead of time by filling out the questionnaire form below. I take the information you've provided and shape/design a session especially for you - one to meet your specific needs.

What back-up or after-session support do you provide?

Once the session is through I will email you a summary of the material covered as well as action points and/or resources discussed.

How much does Skype coaching cost?

And how, what and when, do I pay?

• A 45 minute session = US $50 payable by PayPal
• A 60 minute session = US $60 payable by PayPal
