Improv(e) Your Presentation Skills
The Engaging Educator See all classes by this school @ 58 E. 11th St, New York, NY
Public speaking [cue dramatic music that makes people nervous] is not something most people look forward to. Since we don’t look forward to it, we procrastinate until it’s too late, worry too much about WHAT we are going to say and not WHO we say it to, or HOW we say it, and then guess what? It doesn’t go as well as we want it to go, so we put another notch in the ‘I’m not a good public speaker’ post and the cycle repeats. Whatever your...
Improv(e) Yourself: Improv for Professionals
The Engaging Educator See all classes by this school @ 58 E. 11th St, New York, NY
Improvisation isn’t just for actors and comedians – it’s for everyone. Even MBA Students are being asked to take improv classes as part of their required courses. Why? Improv education focuses on key skills in communication – public speaking, listening, presence, connection and focus. We communicate every day – and there is a difference between doing it habitually and doing it well and with intention. Heard of the ‘Yes, And’ idea elevation...

Speaking and Presentation Skills (Coed)
The Engaging Educator See all classes by this school @ 244 W 54th St, New York, NY
Public speaking is feared more than death. We spend so much time preparing WHAT we are going to say that we fail to focus on the HOW. What does it take to make wooing a crowd look easy? And even if you don’t fear public speaking – are you good at it, or have you had an audience look through you? Public speaking used to be accepted as a difficult skill possessed by and necessary for only a select few professions. All that has quickly changed over...

Improv + Communication Skills for Women
The instructor and the other class attendants were very warm and friendly. The instructor provided great exercises throughout the evening that helped us become aware of word fillers and other habits we have in communicating that should be avoided. I liked how we were all engaged with each other and used the examples she provided to challenge ourselves to listen to other, think on our feet and learn different ways to communicate according to the situation we’re in. -
