Professional Speaking
The tone, pace, and delivery of the speaker can significantly impact how students perceive and retain information. Effective professional speaking can also help to build trust and credibility with students, establishing the speaker as an authority in their field. Additionally, professional speaking can be used to facilitate discussions and provide feedback, creating a sense of community and promoting active learning.
"Words have power. Words are power. Words could be your power." - Mohammed Qahtani
