Johan Speaking Academy Term Graduation @ Wisma Wah Chan, 24th March 2019

In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of March 2019!

This also denoted the annual signature event by Johan Speaking Academy – “Johan Speaking Academy Term Graduation” for students from the respective programs namely Kiddos Public Speaking, Kids Public Speaking, Kids Youtubing and Kids Emcee.

This time the graduation was held at Wisma Wah Chan located at Petaling Jaya. What made the venue unique was its auditorium seating layout, similar to a movie theatre hall setting.  

While setting up before the first segment by Kiddos Public Speaking, both Johan and Cherry were cordially greeting and welcoming the parents into the hall.

When the hall began to be filled with crowd, Johan briefly explained that each seating arrangement had its own strengths and psychology. Due to its rising slope of seating rows as such, the speaker indirectly faced a stationary, forced-forward attention from the audiences. In other words, this depicted a power imbalance between the speaker and the audiences, which may contribute pressure towards the speaker. Having to conduct the graduation in such auditorium layout for the first time; Johan found this to be a great opportunity for his students to not only learn how to handle such challenging situation, but to also conquer the stage with an impactful impression.   

 In no time, the day continued with kids going onto the stage one by one. Some were anxious with sweaty palms but eventually gotten better thanks to their parents’ encouragement whilst some were extremely excited, looking forward to take the stage confidently. There was a child who did become too nervous and started crying profusely in the arms of her parent. After much motivation and support from parents and Teacher Johan and Cherry, the girl managed to go on stage to present her story. Performance anxiety is extremely common among children. It is okay to feel vulnerable, as long as you are willing to confront your fears and change to be better. As the saying goes, “it is the first step that counts.”  

The graduation event ended on a high note by 4pm. As parents and students were leaving the hall, Johan and Cherry waved goodbyes and thanked them for their support and attending the event.

KL Gateway Mall - Bangsar South. Kids and Kiddos Public Speaking

KL Gateway Mall ? Where is that ?

Though this mall has been at Bangsar South for the past 2 years, it was only this year that we stepped foot inside there.

Why only us then ?  Why not give our students the opportunity to step on stage at KL Gateway Mall and practise their speeches ?

YES ! We got a stagetime for our Kids Public Speaking program.

Our slot was in conjunction with Chap Goh Meh celebration. One of the parents said, "Wow, the stage is big ! "

Most of the students were beginners, that was why some parents were worried. When I saw the stage, I did not expect it to be so big too. We thought it was a small event with a small stage.

Anyhow, since the students were already there, I guess they are UP for the challenge.

The event started with Kiddos Public Speaking. Kids age 5 to 7 stepped onto the stage with confidence. Parents were super happy. You could see those smile on their faces.

Next up are Kids Public Speaking. These are students age ranging from 7 to 12 years old. They did superb too !

At the end of the session, parents too joined in the fun and we had a group picture at the big stage.

Every step a child make onto the stage, it is a confidence booster for them. Public speaking, if done well, will equipped them with a powerful skill which is essential for the future.

Thank you so much parents for the support and also the management from KL Gateway Mall.

Till we meet again. Cheers !

Public Speaking for Kindergarten

Is there any public speaking classes at kindergarten ?
Can a 5 year old learn public speaking at a kindergarten ?

Many kindergartens are doing speech and drama classes for students, but the trend is catching up in having public speaking classes at a kindergarten. These extra classes are actually more on an ad-hoc basis where 3rd party trainers come in to teach there programs in the kindergarten. Sometimes, the teachers at the kindergarten will also run this programs themselves.

Please check with the kindergarten near your area to find out if they offer public speaking classes for your child.

We also offer public speaking classes for kids age 5 - 7 years old. We are not a kindergarten, but our academy specializes in public speaking classes to build a child's confidence.  We are located at Taman Tun Dr Ismail. We called this program Kiddos Public Speaking.

This program is a proven method which will help your child to stand up and speak up. Here are some of the kiddos journey

After practicing at class, kiddos will also have an opportunity to speak in front of their parents. Sometimes in the classroom, but the real challenge will come when they go outdoor. Here are some of their pictures.

Kiddos Public Speaking by Johan Speaking Academy

Mom : Hi there, is this Johan Speaking Academy ?
Cherry : Yes, how may I help you ?
Mom : I would like to know if you all have classes for kids age 6 years old ?
Cherry : Yes, we do. It is called Kiddos Public Speaking.

What is Kiddos Public Speaking ?

Kiddos Public Speaking is for kids age 5+ to 7 years old. We have just launched this program and it is available at Taman Tun Dr Ismail. We started kids public speaking since 2014, and there were many requests for a lower age group. Thus, this Kiddos Public Speaking program.

Kiddos public speaking is a bit different from Kids Public Speaking. The time spent in class will only be 1 hour, with even a smaller group compared to the elder age group. Of course, the ultimate aim is to build their confidence through the fundamentals of public speaking.

The duration of the program is 10-Month and kiddos come in weekly. Here are some pictures of their journey.
