In this inspiring episode of LEMIWorks! Podcast, Heidi Christianson sits down with master mentor Kathy Mellor to uncover the magic behind Unleashing Your Voice, a groundbreaking public speaking and debate program. Ever wondered what happens when students (and mentors!) overcome their fear of public speaking? Kathy's innovative two-day format shows us exactly that.
On day one, youth take center stage while mentors observe, followed by a powerful day of mentor coaching instruction. What makes this approach special? Kathy reveals how the coaching environment transforms traditional teaching into an experience where students actually welcome feedback – a game-changer in education.
The results speak for themselves. Picture a student so terrified they could only watch through a door, later becoming a confident debater. Or imagine a young person who once hid under chairs blossoming into a lead performer. These aren't just success stories – they're testimonials to how public speaking skills can revolutionize a student's journey through all LEMI projects.
Ready to bring this transformation to your community? LEMI is thrilled to continue offering this exceptional program. Find out more information HERE. Contact us at registerLEMI@gmail.com or visit LEMIHomeschool.com to learn more about hosting an Unleashing Your Voice seminar.
