Fear Of Public Speaking Course Overview
"Let Me Transform Your Public Speaking Fear Into New Confidence & Poise - In Just A Few Short Hours In London."
- says "The Fear Doctor" Vince Stevenson, founder-director of the College of Public Speaking London which has helped over 12,000 people from 50+ countries to manage their fears and speak with confidence since 2006
Be honest now: when called upon to speak in public, how do you FEEL?
Scared? Paralysed? Shaky? Dry throat? Racing heartbeat? Profuse sweating?
Maybe even dizzy, short of breath, or thrown into a full-scale panic attack?
If so, let me assure you:
You are similar to the 12,000+ students, from 50+ countries who I've trained over the last 16 years to:
1) 'Reprogram' the natural fear they feel when asked to speak in public, and
2) Speak from a position of genuine, easy confidence and poise, using simple and immensely powerful techniques.
Question 1: What is critical for you to resolve right now?
Question 2: What's going to happen if you don't sort it out?

Fear of Public Speaking Course London UK
Join me for our exceptional public speaking courses and say goodbye to anxiety and self-doubt.
Are you looking for success?
If you're looking for success, follow the greats. Bill Gates, Elon Musk, and Warren Buffett followed similar paths to success.
The path isn't new, and it isn't a secret. But you have to find the path before it leads you to the journey to success. Welcome to the path.
You can expect our events to be interactive, fun, and confidence-building. They're the foundations of the new you.
The method is well-established. It's steeped in learning psychology and neuroscience. And it's worked with millions of students worldwide.
My name is Vince Stevenson (he/him), or 'The Fear Doctor'. Are you motivated to overcome fear and enjoy life as a confident speaker? I have the skills and experience to change your life positively. I introduced the first 'fear of public speaking course' to London in 2006 and have never looked back.
Our three pillars of success are ensuring excellence through equality, diversity, and inclusion, achieving personal impact, and securing a sustainable future.
Question: What causes the fear of public speaking?
Answer: As we develop our lives and careers, we climb the ladders of personal and professional hierarchies. If you're lucky, you might escape the dreaded invitation to speak for a while. But there's no hiding place in the digital world. You have to deliver, but you're not prepared. This isn't your territory, and the shadow of diminishing yourself in front of your peers is paralysing. My 1 one and 2-day courses are designed to build confidence and clarity. Your delivery skills will improve. If you have a big event on the horizon, now is an excellent time to seek assistance.
We recognize the significant investment in your development, and it's usual for potential students to have questions to ensure they sign up for the correct course. If that sounds right, contact Rachel on +44 (0) 330 043 2677 or email admin@collegeofpublicspeaking.co.uk.
The College of Public Speaking promotes inclusivity, diversity, and equality.
Diversity, Inclusion and Equality. This is a creative class, so we support a state of psychological safety in the classroom so everybody is welcomed, accepted, acknowledged, and heard. Each individual's contribution is part of the rich tapestry of the course's input. Each speech has a collective impact.
Since 2006, our world-famous public speaking course has helped thousands of people. Organizations such as the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, Buckingham Palace, BT, HSBC, Oxfam, and many private individuals realize the value of this career-enhancing skill.
And to remove any risk from your experience, we promise that when you complete our unique public speaking course, if you have not turned the corner as an effective speaker, we offer you a 100% money-back guarantee.
How would your career and life change in the next twelve months if you joined me for a day or two in a public speaking course in London?
Here's the truth: your fear is nothing more than a bully that dissipates when adequately confronted. It'll leave you free to enjoy the life and success you deserve.
Fear says others will laugh at you, that you're not good enough, that you're not worthy, that your speech will flop.
Fear says you cannot cope; and that you lack preparation. You don't know what you're talking about, and nobody is interested.
Fear tells you your topic is boring, and your points and examples are obvious and barely worth saying.
And as a result, fear holds you back, blocks your path to success, and prevents you from achieving your goals.
Good news - there is a solution - Join me on one of my next fear of public speaking courses in London.
You need the correct strategy, techniques, and guidance to overcome your fears.
And if you join me for just one day in our first-class training facility in King's Cross, London, I'll show you the winning techniques, including:
- How to build or rebuild your self-confidence
- How to focus nervous energy on positive outcomes
- The key to opening your speech with impact and confidence
- Breathing techniques that help you remain calm
- A 6-point checklist to help you speak with confidence
- Removing your uncertainty
- Tapping into your personality, creativity, and authenticity
- Practising correct posture, breathing, and relaxation
- Building confidence through interactive group exercises
- Creating a public speaking mindset for success
You'll get a unique understanding of the fear of public speaking and a bag of practical tools and techniques for future use.
Like all of our professional classes, our Fear of Public Speaking course is accredited by CIMA, the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.
CIMA's parent group Pearson is the world's most significant private educational concern.
We recognize the significant investment in your development, and it's usual for potential students to have questions to ensure they sign up for the correct course. If that sounds right, contact Rachel on +44 (0) 330 043 2677 or email admin@collegeofpublicspeaking.co.uk.
What's the difference between the 1 and 2-day public speaking courses?
On the 2-day public speaking course, you get an extra day's theoretical input, deliver more speech practice, receive expert feedback, and exposure to mindset techniques.
The 1-day public speaking course is intense and high-paced. The 2-day public speaking course is more reflective as we have extra time to explore each individual's situation.
Public speaking course sizes & times:
Our class sizes range from 4 to 10 people, giving everybody sufficient time for numerous short speeches and feedback.
Courses start at 9:30 and end at 5 pm. 45 minutes for lunch. It's a fun and intensive day.
How to find the venue

Final Consideration:
In 2004, Unilever launched The Dove (soap) 'Real Beauty Campaign'. Their research discovered that only 2% of women worldwide described themselves as 'beautiful'.
The 'fear of public speaking' reflects your inner beauty and perceived competence. I'm no oil painting, but I don't care. That's just a minor facet of who I am.
Within you is a diamond that has shone brightly since birth. As we grow older, we experience life's upsets, disappointments, and failures. The diamond gets covered by life's disappointments, resentment, or defeat. It loses its shine and becomes lost and forgotten. Then you're invited to speak to your colleagues or clients, and you feel less than capable of climbing that emotional mountain. An emptiness swells in the void of your heart, and you feel powerless.
There's often a trigger that makes you need to take action. Without going into details, I know from sixteen years as a fear of public speaker course trainer that your diamond resides within you. We'll establish your diamond's whereabouts during class, take it out, and polish it with your class colleagues.
Planning a prosperous future for you and your family is never too late. You're a call or an email away.

'Hi Vince, I am already lining up some public speaking events one of which might be to seventy people. I am not frightened at all now. Previously I would have died a thousand slow deaths of anxiety and nervousness which could well have resulted in a panic attack on stage. Now I can't wait. I'm proud to announce that I can do it. Who would have thought it from a two day weekend session?'Simon Smith - Northolt

'Dear Vince, Today I did my first major public speaking since attending your course a few weeks back. I did an assembly in front of 150 pupils and then staff training at the end of the day. I'm pleased to say that I paused, didn't get nervous and spoke so fluently. All day, I've had kids approach me and thank me for the assembly. One even said he found it "inspirational". 'I can only really thank you for this. I took all of your advice, reviewed the speeches and read your book since the course. I feel so much better now and truly believe that I can do this. Thank you so much and I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas!'Julie Joyce - Oxford
