Cooper Center consultants can help you with public speaking by showing you exactly how you appear and sound when you speak. In a private area of the Cooper Center, one of our consultants will record a dress rehearsal of your speech. Afterward, you and the consultant will review the recording and discuss ways to improve your performance.

Consultants help with:

  • Nonverbal communication (posture, movement, gestures)
  • Voice (quality, volume, pronunciation, stress, pitch)
  • Audience analysis
  • Supporting and arranging your points
  • Beginning and ending strongly
  • Interacting with your audience.
