Publisher's Synopsis
(Preview first sections FREE at www.MiloShapiro.com/books) Teens CAN master the skill of public speaking...IF you know the tricks of the trade! Laugh your way through Milo's clever, tip-loaded "Top 10 Lists." Conquer any fears as you EXCEL in this important tool for success. Public speaking coach Milo Shapiro blends core speaking fundamentals, lessons learned from his years as a professional motivational speaker, and relevant exercises from the world of improvisation to make his speeches, coaching, and books more fun than the norm. Enjoy his humorous perspective with lists like "Ten Great Ways To Blow It In Your First Ten Seconds" and valuable lessons on how you can be a great storyteller. Seeing what else was on the market, Milo designed this book specifically to make learning about presentation skills fun! And yes, like Milo himself (who once shook so badly backstage that two people grabbed him), you will get past the fear! Milo is an experienced stage improviser (a la "Whose Line Is It Anyway?") and spent years teaching improv to teens and pre-teens. He has also been a substitute teacher.
