Course description
All theory will be practiced in exercises and is obtainable on video. The teacher acts as a stage director and gives each participant personal stage directions, that will be applied to their own subject content. The training is intensive and sometimes confronting, but also a perfect chance to learn the tricks of the trade under professional guidance.
After the course, participants will be able to:
- structure the content in a way that the audience will remember it better;
- use their body, voice and hands more consciously;
- keep the attention of the audience more, by making the information that you deliver clearly audible, visible and tangible, establish good contact with the audience;
- make effective slides and present them audience-focused, instead of screen-focused;
- deal with tension and present with confidence

Lecturer
The course will be taught by Karin Herrebout, Moile Moile. Karin has a background in theatre and professional storytelling, and is specialised in teaching presentation skills.
Thanks to Karin and my fellow participants, the course helped me to see myself as a presenter from a different perspective. Now I am more aware of my body posture and how it can assist in building self-confidence. Also, I pay more attention to the visual, audio, and kinesthetic channels of forwarding my message to the audience. The most valuable ideas for me are the Golden Sentence, the Song-strategy and the appeal to the audience. Karin is an experienced professional instructor who paid close attention to each of us and gave adequate feedback. I have learned a lot.Participant from last year
