Fearless Public Speaking Made Simple
Computers & Office
Did you know that public speaking is the number one fear in North America? The
second greatest fear is death! If you have the fear of public speaking you are not alone.
You must first recognize what “fear” is. This course will help you open up in front of
both small and large groups of people to communicate decisively. Whether you’re
talking in a team meeting or presenting in front of an audience, we all have to speak in
public from time to time. You can do this well or you can do this badly, and the outcome
strongly affects the way people think about you. Which is why public speaking causes
anxiety and concern. The good news is that, with thorough preparation and practice,
you can overcome your nervousness and perform exceptionally well. We’ll give you the
tools to speak in public without shyness or awkwardness.

Google
Google is, by a wide margin, the most popular search engine in the world. To most,
the word “Google” has become synonymous with “search the Internet.” But what are
the implications of Google’s technologies in the near future? Your Gmail address is
your golden ticket to a digital amusement park that can inform, entertain and astound
if you know where to look. In this class we will explore common utilities such as Gmail,
Google Contacts, Google Docs, Google Maps, Google Drive and more! Google,
Google, Google! Need more? One night will be entirely devoted to YouTube - it has an
entire community and impact all its own. On average, 300 hours of video are uploaded
to YouTube every minute! Almost 5 billion videos are watched on YouTube every single
day, and for many, it has become the replacement for television, radio and cable.
Prepare to be inspired by some of the newest and greatest artists from around the
globe, all while seated in the comfort of your chair.
