Tailored to boost speaking confidence through creative, play‑based activities like:
- Show and Tell – Children speak confidently about a cherished item
- Story Time Theatre – Short plays using puppets or drawings
Tell Me Why – Simple opinion sharing (“Cats are better than dogs!”)
Ideal for students beginning to develop their public speaking and writing confidence, this cohort introduces foundational communication techniques in a fun and age-appropriate way.
What to Expect in Our Primary Classes:
- Book Club Presentations: Students present their favourite character or part of a book using props, posters, or even simple PowerPoint slides to bring their ideas to life.
- Interview Practice: In pairs, students interview each other on fun, relatable topics (like dream vacations or hobbies), improving conversational fluency and confidence.
- Role-Playing Games: Students act out scenarios such as news reporters, teachers, or historical figures — helping them learn tone, expression, and audience engagement.
Debate Line Up: In this fun group activity, students add to each other’s arguments on topics like “Are cats better than dogs?” or “Indoor vs outdoor play,” learning structure and clarity in persuasive speaking.


Designed for older school students, this program supports those building on existing skills or stepping into more structured speaking environments.
What to Expect in Our High School Classes:
- Mock Debates: Students participate in structured debates, developing persuasive techniques, critical thinking, and rebuttal skills on age-relevant topics.
- Mock Newsroom: Students take on roles like anchor, reporter, and guest in a simulated newsroom, learning to deliver information clearly and confidently.
- Podcast Creation: From scripting to recording, students create short podcasts on topics they love — sharpening writing, clarity, and storytelling.
Impromptu Speaking: Students learn to think on their feet through quick speaking games and strategies for preparing compelling impromptu speeches.
Tailored for senior high school students, this cohort supports advanced speaking and writing abilities. It integrates academic strengths with real-world communication skills to help students express themselves with confidence and depth.
What to Expect in Our Senior Classes:
- Product Pitch: Students design and pitch a product or service to their class as if presenting to investors — a fun way to build persuasive language and presentation skills.
- Storytelling with a Twist: Students craft and perform stories from different perspectives, enhancing creativity, empathy, and expressive delivery (including dramatic monologues or poetry).
- Panel Discussions: Students take part in moderated panels on relevant topics, learning to express opinions, manage dialogue, and debate with respect and clarity.
- Research Presentations: Students choose an unfamiliar topic, conduct research, and present findings — sharpening their ability to organise, communicate, and teach others.

Here is what our
happy parents says
I would just to take a moment to say, I have been so impressed by your Coaches! What’s great is that they are passionate about making an impact on these children. I’ve noticed time and time again students waiting outside the classroom excited for their lessons to begin. My son particularly looks forward to End of Term Presentations. Thank you to TCA in guiding and supporting our son on his learning journey!

ParentOur son has been attending every holiday workshop and has found their creative teaching style so engaging! I’d like to thank Speaks Craft for inspiring my son enough to fuel him with budding enthusiasm; he is much less conscious in expressing himself (truly looks up to his coach!) and in fact keen to attend his weekly classes as well as the holiday workshops.

ParentAn excellent program. Madison-Kate Gribble is an enthusiastic and energetic coach who has helped my boys immensely in understanding the elements of public speaking. I like the way the classes are run, it is a lot more akin to how someone would be public speaking in the real world as opposed to normal formal school debating. My boys love the class and never want to "skip" it even if given the option. Keep up the good work and than you Speaks Craft

ParentWe usually attend holidays workshops and in lockdown Speaks Craft cleverly reorganized the classes in zoom sessions in no time. Very interactive sessions, age appropriate and involving. Teacher was very skilled in what she did and beautifully engaged everyone with charming activities. The outcome report is also very informative and useful.
