About this Course

Public Speaking for Adults takes place across three connected workshops: Finding Your Voice, Understanding Your Audience, and Connecting with Your Material. Participants are welcome to join one session or all three. Together, the workshops break down the public speaking triangle: The self, the audience, and the material. These corners will give the participants practical tools they can use in everyday speaking situations. This workshop explores "The Audience" point of the public speaking triangle. Participants will reflect on how to identify who they’re speaking to, connect their objective to the audience’s needs, and understand how accessible language makes communication clearer and more effective for everyone. This session moves from recognizing common audience-related misconceptions to actively shaping communication choices with intention and clarity.
