“I have news!!  I have got my first presenting job!!!!!  I am going to be doing about 25, 6-8 min programs for English Listening Training.  We will be interviewing people in different careers, eg plumbing and tiling, we will interview a professional, then I get to do some demo-ing.  The main point of the programs is for 13-16 year olds in Holland to practice their English.

I was so grateful in the audition for all the interviewing and other practice you’ve given me the opportunity to do presenting on the courses at Ravensbourne.”

“I did my presentation yesterday. It lasted nearly 2 hours! Lots of interaction from participants. I'm pleased to say it went really well and I received excellent feedback.

The training in front of the camera really helped me with what to do and what not to do. It also helped me to prepare in a different way than I would have normally.

Thank you for your help.”
