FAQ
Common questions about rhetoric training
What is the difference between rhetoric training and speech training?
Speech training works on speaking technique (articulation, pace, emphasis). Rhetoric training works on content, structure, delivery, and impact. The two complement each other. In the introductory call we find out where your focus should be.
Does rhetoric training also help with stage fright?
Yes. We work with concrete techniques from speech education and performance practice to help you manage tension and appear calmer and more present. For severely distressing performance anxiety, additional psychological support may also be advisable.
Do you offer rhetoric training for teams too?
Yes. Besides individual training, there are workshops and corporate trainings for teams and companies, tailored to your goals, in person in Dresden or online.
Does the training take place in Dresden or online?
Both are possible. You can train in person in Dresden or online, across Germany and internationally, with the same quality and individual support.
