Northern VA/DMV Area! We are back for the ULTIMATE IN-PERSON Summer Programs for your kids! Public speaking skills are absolutely ESSENTIAL to academia, future career success, and to simply making friends or standing up for yourself! Speaking on the spot, whether it be raising your hand in class or simply having a conversation with parents, teachers, or friends, is often the most nerve-wracking type of speaking for kids (and adults!)

Welcome to Week 1: “On the Spot!-Fundamentals of Impromptu Speech!” for ages 7-9!
In this 5 day, 3-hours per day program, we will have a TON of fun covering:

- How to best PERFORM in ANY type of on the spot public speaking situation!
- How to conquer any level of NERVOUSNESS and become more CONFIDENT!
- How to STRUCTURE any type of speech ON THE SPOT!
