UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES
With twenty years of experience working in education and Universities, I know exactly how to nurture young people and students to bring out the best in each and every one.
It’s been a privilege to welcome Kate to Imperial’s Innovation Design Engineering (IDE) Master’s program. Her delivery of a transformative public speaking workshop was nothing short of remarkable. Engagement within the activities was incredible, witnessing students wholeheartedly participating in the interactive sessions focused on body posture, voice projection, and communication techniques. Kate’s unique approach not only refined these essential skills but also instilled a notable boost in students’ confidence, all while infusing a playfulness element into the learning process. The event resonated well with IDE students, leaving a lasting positive impact. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to have more of Kate’s expertise and vibrant energy in the future.
SCHOOLS
Public Speaking has the power to transform every young person’s confidence from the shyest to the most confident. Depending on your needs, I offer workshops in education for one hour to one day of training for young people in public speaking.
I can work with small groups of 6-25 young people or on a one to one basis. Over the last few years I have lead full day workshops for government funded, NCS The Challenge, leading workshops in public speaking for up to eighty young people.
Previous students have attained high grades in their LAMDA public speaking exams (with 95% achieving merits to distinctions) as well as preparing and delivering speeches to up to two hundred people.
Please get in touch to find out about how I can work with your school or college.
TESTIMONIALS
Before I started LAMDA Public Speaking, I was pretty shy and I didn’t have the confidence. Through working with Miss Gilbert, I’ve become a more open person, able to express my opinions. Miss Gilbert has helped me with my public speaking in front of big audiences or even a small room of people. Being a black young girl in a state school is hard. Thanks to this work, I created my own goals and dreams and I’m working towards them happily. I am now Head Girl in 6th Form and I am a part of Southwark youth council being the voice for Walworth and my borough. Working with Miss Gilbert has contributed greatly to my journey.
Kate had fantastic facilitation skills, and worked well with the wider staffing team, constantly aware of YPs needs and made relevant adjustments. She was really good in terms of dynamically adjusting the session. One YP on the autistic spectrum wasn’t keen to speak initially but by the end of the day was motivated to speak.
