Introduction to Speechwriting Course | 1-Day Training in English 2023

Explore the beauty of an age-old craft in my one-day speechwriting course. Writing a speech (let alone presenting it) can be a challenging job. That’s because there are so many factors to consider in order to make your words impactful and relevant. Yet the process of writing speeches can also be highly stimulating and rewarding – especially when you later see your work come to life!

Does your position (whether in the public or private sector) require you to write speeches? Or do you merely want to add the skill of speechwriting to your repertoire? If yes, join my one-day in-house speechwriting course which will teach you to write effective speeches that will leave a lasting impression on your audience.

You’ll learn how to compile/structure your speech and use rhetorical devices to persuade your audience. Famous speech examples (from Churchill, Mandela, Angelou etc.) will also be drawn upon for your writing inspiration.

Lastly, this one-day speechwriting course culminates in a practical opportunity whereby participants will write a short speech (or introduction to a speech) gaining feedback from the trainer and other participants.
