Highest Speak offers public speaking and communication classes, camps, workshops, and private coaching for kids in grades K-12 to eliminate public speaking anxiety early. While the academic system has focused on STEM and test-taking, a gap in public speaking and even general communication skills in a social setting has developed.
Highest Speak aims to fill this gap with a unique curriculum and philosophy based on play, creativity, authenticity, and mindfulness! Their goal is to produce well-rounded, confident, and positive children who will carry their learned skills into adulthood. And parents agree — 80% of their students re-enroll in classes!
Highest Speak opportunities are taught by experienced and fun-loving licensed teachers, public speaking professionals, and other highly skilled public speaking trainers! Their team invites your kids to join them this summer:
