"(Aaron's) Storytelling is Beautiful!"
Roger Caesar- World Champion Public Speaker
How 250 kids in a room taught me about authenticity!...
What do you get when you combine 250 eleven year olds, one assembly room and a young teacher who thinks he can inspire the next generation with just his words?
An absolute humiliation!
My name's Aaron, and since those days of thinking I was god's gift to assembly leaders, I have been very lucky to dust myself off, practice my craft and win national and regional awards for my speeches and public speaking skills.
I've also delivered some absolute STINKERS when it comes to speeches and presentations. Why am I telling you this? Because those moments of failures were more important lessons than my successes and they taught me what NOT to do in order to be a successful speaker!
My young students those many years ago taught me a key lesson that I bring to all of my coaching and public speaking duties: to embrace your vulnerabilities, to not take yourself too seriously and deliver truly inspiring and confident speeches... with a touch of mirth.

A coaching style that adapts to YOUR needs
With a focus on personalised, 'individual-centred' coaching and mentoring, rather than a one-size-fits-all, I will produce a bespoke package that will:
-Monitor and track your progress on a timely basis
-Tap into your authenticity (a key feature often missing from speeches!)
-Give you the confidence to tell your story with passion and conviction
-Provide you with the tools and skills to engage your audience
Alongside this, my coaching:
1) Guides people through the 'Speaker's Skill Circle': the key fundamentals that are important to great public speaking
2) How to turn a great 'speech' into a great 'conversation' with your audience... and why one is more influential than the other!
3) Provides supportive, personalised and constructive feedback that will help you reflect on your speaking skills positively, without you losing your authenticity.
An award-winning public speaker to guide you along the way
I have been championed by international organisations for my ability to tell great stories and to bring audiences along for the journey!

The people I have helped...
Wendy Price OBE and her team
"I would highly recommend Aaron’s public speaking workshop. Having delivered presentations for many years I felt relatively comfortable speaking in public. However Aaron’s unique insight, expertise and personalised feedback have provided an opportunity for me to take my presentations to a whole new level. Aaron provides the perfect blend of challenge and support in a secure and comfortable environment."
A colleague said it was “the best workshop I’ve ever attended” and I wholeheartedly agree! Engaging, supportive, challenging, knowledgeable, Aaron will support you to take your public speaking to a whole new level.
Thank you Aaron for the public speaking workshop you delivered to my team – days later we’re still talking about how amazing it was!
