Free Public Speaking Classes for Middle Schoolers

I’m the President of Dublin’s high school debate team.
I’m hosting speech classes for students who want to develop public speaking skills from 4 pm – 5 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, starting February 22. These classes are online and available to anyone, regardless of where they live, as long as the children are in grades 6-8.
These classes will help middle schoolers develop important presentation skills that are vital to high school, and eventually workforce performance. This is increasingly important, especially with the extension of online school. The goal of these classes is to prepare students who want to focus on STEM-focused disciplines in high school and beyond with communication skills.
We’ll focus on the importance of public speaking, how to get rid of filler words and stutters, how to develop credibility, and culminate with having the kids give a comprehensive, professional presentation on a topic they research and develop.

Free Speech and Debate Help for Middle Schoolers!

Do you want your child to improve their confidence with public speaking? Are you looking to further their middle-school-debate skills?

I’m the president of the local high school debate team and I’m going to be hosting biweekly speech-and-debate help sessions throughout the end of June and July for middle-schoolers — from beginners to competitors — to improve their organization, presentation, and argumentative skills.

These lessons will be up-front in person (online) and go over topics such as how to build a proper speech, how to use and attack logical fallacies, and how to ease into a career as a competitor in a high-school program. They’ll also go over proper presentation skills and how to speak slowly and clearly. These skills are increasingly essential in a world that depends on face-to-face communication, even if your child isn’t particularly interested in competitive activity.

Advanced Writing Program- Prep for Next Grade

Writing is an important life skill. It is not only important for academics but is a requirement for college admissions and for a successful professional life. Current school closures have made it even more critical.
Do not take it lightly. Parents SPEND thousands of dollars during high school years for SAT Prep and College Essay Counseling. That is a quick bandaid fix. Every parent should think of writing as a foundational skill that needs to be nurtured from an early age/grade level. You can INVEST a few hundred dollars now and help your child develop a skill that they will reap benefits from for the rest of their lives.
My name is Eileen Mammen and I am an ELA educator with over 25 years of experience mentoring students from all grade levels in English Writing, Reading Comprehension, Grammar and Vocabulary. Contact my office today at 925-973-8087 or email [email protected] to get started. I have developed an 8-week advanced writing and reading comprehension summer program that helps students prep for the next grade level. I promise you’ll not just see an improvement in ELA but an overall improvement in grades as my curriculum focuses on success for your child.

Summer Prep for Grades 1-3 Reading & Writing

Dear parents,
My name is Sarah, an elementary school teacher and I am heading into my fifth year of teaching. Michigan State University is my Alma Mater, (go green!) I graduated with a major in Elementary Education and a teaching focus in Language Arts. Additionally, I minored in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.)
This summer, I plan to bring my love and expertise in reading and writing to the incoming students in grades 1-3.  Early focus and mentoring in reading and writing helps children develop phonological awareness, alphabet knowledge, and print awareness, which are skills associated with future reading and writing proficiencies.
I have taught reading and creative writing courses across elementary grade levels. I pride myself in fostering a fun, meaningful, and safe environment to flourish these skills and develop more assurance in one’s abilities. I am looking forward to the opportunity to share my expertise, and in turn, have students discover their own.
For enrollment or any questions about the summer program, please call or text my helpful team at 925-973-8087. Classes will be conducted online. I look forward to helping your child this summer!
-Ms. Sarah
