Coaching and Workshops on Speeches and Presentations
Areas of coaching include: |
- the overall structure: We will make your speech
consistent, comprehensible, and coherent and make sure the
audio-visual material reinforces the speech.
- the details: We can make your language appropriate
using clear, correct diction and syntax.
- the style of presentation: We will practice so that
your voice is clear and loud and that you use your hands and body
effectively.

TESTIMONIALS
 "I wish you’d
come back to Victoria to give the faculty another session. The few hours I
got to spend with your were some of the most useful I’ve ever spent on
professional development." Lorna Crozier, award-winning poet, professor
University of Victoria
“The ability to communicate effectively is especially
important in my role as an elected official, and I have Lil Blume to thank.
Her communications course has taught me important lessons on how to listen
with empathy and communicate non-defensively – skills that are essential
whether I am in a boardroom debate, being interviewed by the media, or on
the phone with a constituent. Lil is a dynamic and energetic teacher
who delivers with passion."
– Shaun Chen, Trustee (Ward
21, Scarborough-Rouge River), Toronto District School Board
