Video

A very important part of my philosophy is the use of video.

Put simply, it allows you the chance to see your performance for possibly the first time as others see you.

This has three vital uses;

It actually helps you practise under a stressful situation, that of being filmed. Whether it is for a presentation, job interview or small talk situation, you need to be under pressure to really benefit.

Secondly, it is very easy with today`s technology for you to take away a copy via a USB stick home and analyse your performance alone. This can also be used to measure future improvements. Having a real picture of your development is very important to improving confidence in the long run.

Finally, you may start out with a relatively negative impression of your communication abilities. However, by watching yourself in action it is often possible to pick out many positive aspects of your performance and with my support you will come to realise that your abilities are better than you originally thought.
