CityTalks (Ideas worth spreading) offers a wonderful opportunity to those who want to express themselves, share their ideas and practise public speaking. Join us through inspiring speeches by the very students of CITY College.
Public speaking is an essential skill for all students; not only do you utilise public speaking through giving presentations at the front of the class, but also in all aspects of your student life as you interact with different kinds of people each day.
Students will be able to participate in public speaking activities in a safe space, which would provide encouragement and growth to help them find their own voice. Students can also benefit from meeting people from all courses, as public speaking is an essential skill for all.
