Overcome Your Public Speaking Fear- Trial - LA
The class was great! There were members from all over the world and the presenter was patient and knowledgeable. -
Public Speaking 101
Andrew was amazing! I went into this “workshop” with a bit of apprehension. All of these feelings drifted away as the night went on. What I loved about the event was the way it was carefully planned. Like a good “behind-the-scenes” featurette, Andrew described exactly what we were going to do, how it was going to play out, and what we were expected to gain from the results. Each activity was fun, interesting, insightful, and ultimately, I came away with an understanding of what needed to change, what was good and what could improve, all in the name of “Public Speaking 101”. Thank you, Andy! -
Storytelling: Presentations to Elevator Pitches
Our local work team took this class to help us efficiently tell our brand story whether we have 10 seconds or 10 minutes. For being a virtual 90 minute course, it actually flew by. It was fun, interactive, and informative all at the same time. Andrew also offers a 15 minute personal follow up after the course to help you refine your pitch. I definitely suggest taking advantage of this to help put everything you learned to practice. -
Confidence in Communication Series
Lizzy W. is an amazing communication teacher. Because of her "not pushing" approach I actually started liking communication classes. -
Confidence in Communication Series
Lizzy Wallace does a great job with this series. The thought of ever taking an improv class has TERRIFIED me. The intro to improv in part one of this series has eased my fear and was actually fun. Lizzy does a great job of making everyone feel comfortable. I am sure I said some dumb or weird stuff during the games, but I never felt self-conscious about it (and everything gives me anxiety). Overall, the series helps you put things into perspective and enables you to overcome some mental hurdles that you may have. Lizzy is super patient, genuinely kind, and generous with time and effort to help her students. I highly recommend it! -
Public Speaking Bootcamp
The instructor Lizzy was awesome. Very energized and she kept it fun. A lot of good information. Can't wait to practice what she taught. -
Public Speaking 101
Very helpful! -
Public Speaking 101
Public speaking was always been a dreaded thought of mine; it always made me feel anxious and apprehensive even at the thought of it. I was even anxious to take classes like this one because of the thought of needing to present. But Andrew gave us the tools necessary to combat the inner voice that becomes our saboteurs and that is essentially the core focus of the class...the rest follow. I learned how essential breathing is and all the little cues I never realized deterred me from speaking publicly well previous. I will definitely take more classes from The Story Source. -
Podcasting 1: Start Your Podcast
It was very informative and Anna Scott was a great instructor. I learned a ton and can't wait to start my podcast. -
Public Speaking 101
In the limited amount of time we had, Andrew conveyed a bunch of really useful information that will help me control my public speaking fears in the future. He also took the time to talk with me for a while after the class on the phone to answer any follow-up questions or concerns I had, which really helped the information stick. -

Great and engaging class. Helpful notes and tools about how to present yourself and go with the flow rather than run from it. -

Storytelling: Presentations to Elevator Pitches
This class was everything I thought it would be and more! I never thought I would be able to connect my brand's story to the pitch, but Andrew not only showed us how step by step but he also made the process so clear. The class was very insightful and I learned a ton, but what surprised me even more was Andrew's follow up session where we were able to develop my story and pitch even further, making it all go full circle. I will definitely be taking Andrew's other classes that he offers, as well as telling all of my peers about this one! -

3-Day Public Speaking Rapid Results Workshop
I took this course 9 days ago, and just went over my notes last night. This course is a fun way interrupt your normal patterns of being and bring fun, play, and creativity into speaking. Throughout the weekend, we learned techniques and exercises to improve our voice, memory, creativity, and effectiveness in speaking. I wish I knew about these exercises sooner! -

I can't say enough how much I enjoyed and gained from this class. If somebody had told me before this class how much I would improve, I wouldn't have believed them. Not only do I feel more confident in public speaking now, but I'm actually excited to do my next presentation at work. Lizzy is an amazing teacher, motivator, and presents the material in a way that we can all relate with. -

Public Speaking Bootcamp
Lizzy is an excellent teacher. She conveys valuable and usable techniques in a fun and clear way. She's also incredibly authentic and empathethic, being keenly aware of the anxiety that some of her students may have experienced before taking her course. She seems to be genuinely interested in helping her students, and her attitude and joie de vivre was a real plus, making the 5-hour course fly by. -

My confidence has increased, and I have learned the art of using humor and vocal variety to engage my audiences. You will too when you join us! -
