A speechwriter is a storyteller for spoken-word. There are massive differences and this course will guide you through them.
You will learn how to turn your message into a moment. This beginner-friendly course shows you how to craft clear, compelling speeches, from idea to a memorable close. You’ll learn a practical, repeatable system that you will be able to use for any context.
Learn about the grammatical rules that must be broken and how to use grammar to make your points memorable and impactful. I’ll even share with you what to focus on when you revise each draft.
You’ll learn to treat the idea as the main character and yourself as the guide, so audiences don’t just hear you, they feel the shift.
