You&#8217;ll hear about it soon here on the blog. The reason we started building it is because of the centrality of communication skills to a good study and work experience. When we can express ourselves effectively and encourage and support others to do the same, it is almost a superpower!<\/p>\n<p>In putting the workshop together, I learned about Flinders Speaks! It is a collaboration between International Student Services and Toastmasters.<\/p>\n<p><em>Are you studying at the city campus or live nearby? We have a regular session that needs no preparation but will help you practice your public speaking skills. Every Monday 11am at Flinders City Campus, a representative from Toastmasters Bedford Park Club will guide you through helpful tips and support you to be a better speaker, despite the nervousness!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It is a very supportive and safe environment.
