Class description: 

Communicate Like a Boss! (A Class on Effective Communication) is a 4-week course dedicated to exploring various practices when communicating within interpersonal relationships, within group/team structures and when speaking to groups as a public speaker. Whether your child is painfully shy when speaking in front of others or an extroverted maestro with no filter when s/he speaks, this course will be beneficial in helping them tailor their communication style in ways to help them meet their needs in healthy ways. This interactive course will strive to help students demonstrate an understanding of what communication is through cooperative group assignments, individual presentations and written assignments. Students will move, think, express and create their way to becoming master communicators!
