Powerful Presentations

This programme is specifically designed to teach two key areas:

1. Effective presentation skills, both online and in-person
2. English vocabulary and expressions for effective presentation delivery

What differentiates this programme from other presentation skills workshops is that it teaches students the latest in public speaking skills, with the benefit being that these skills are transferable to the student’s native language. Meaning, effective public speaking skills are universal and not language specific.

Secondly, the programme builds in all of the necessary English language skills to allow students to deliver an engaging and clear presentation using the English language.

This programme will make use of ideas found in the “Harvard Business Review guide to persuasive presentations” and “Presenting in English” by Mark Powell.

This programme is an:

• integrated skills
• advanced language
• topic-specific
• asynchronous learner autonomy
• hybrid model

It has been designed to mix the 5 main skills; listening, reading, writing, grammar and speaking, to promote language adoption.

Finally, as mentioned above, this programme is a hybrid-based model, in that students will benefit from live online sessions which can be booked flexibly via our online booking system. Furthermore, students will have access to a Learning Management System (LMS) 24/7, with course videos, audios, forums and exercises. The work outside of the live online sessions is an integral part of the course and is required to ensure students complete the programme successfully.
