Where Voices Rise and Leaders Emerge: Public Speaking Program at Iteach School, Nerul

A quiet classroom. Twenty thoughtful faces. A moment of hesitation - followed by the spark of a rising voice. This is the beginning of a transformation.

At iTeach NMMC’92 English Medium School, Nerul, Sampoorna Shiksha has launched a powerful new journey: the 15-Session Public Speaking & Oratory Program, starting 5th December 2025, conducted every Friday from 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM. Designed for 20 students from Grades 9 and 10, the program promises not just skill-building, but confidence, courage, and character.

Guided by our dynamic facilitator, Ms Swikriti Pati, each session is crafted to help learners break barriers, find their voice, and speak with conviction.

The Journey Ahead: Fifteen Fridays of Transformation

The 15-session journey is a carefully crafted arc of growth. Students will progress from building foundational speaking skills to mastering higher-order communication techniques. They will explore storytelling, persuasive speaking, rhetorical devices, debate strategies, academic speaking, and impromptu speech-building.

In the final stages, they will craft a powerful speech - an opportunity to showcase who they have become.

• A speaker who stands tall.
• A thinker who speaks clearly.
• A young leader ready to inspire.

This journey will not only make them confident on stage, but also confident in life.

Why This Program Matters: Voices That Shape Futures

Communication is no longer an optional skill - it is a life skill, a leadership skill, a future skill.
This program empowers students to:

• Break free from stage fear
• Speak with clarity, expression, and structure
• Command presence through body language
• Deliver ideas with confidence and respect
• Think critically and respond thoughtfully

Each session reinforces one core truth: when students learn to use their voice, they learn to shape their future.

A Classroom Alive With Expression, Energy & Growth

Once a week, the classroom transforms into a vibrant speaking arena filled with energy, laughter, and bold attempts. Students dive into:

• Voice drills that strengthen tone, pace, and expression
• Storytelling journeys that spark imagination
• Impromptu challenges that sharpen thinking
• Debates & opinion circles that enhance reasoning
• Short speeches that build confidence step-by-step
• Peer feedback exercises that encourage growth
• Confidence exercises that help them stand tall

Every session pushes them one step further - from hesitation to expression, from expression to confidence, and from confidence to leadership.

The Heart of the Program: Our Facilitator

Behind every confident student is a patient guide. Ms. Swikriti Pati brings warmth, enthusiasm, and a deeply supportive approach to every session. She ensures that every child feels:

• Heard without judgment
• Encouraged to try
• Safe to make mistakes
• Confident to rise again

Her presence turns each session into a space of trust - where students are not afraid to speak, stumble, or shine.

Looking Forward: Voices That Will Lead Tomorrow

As the program unfolds week by week, we expect to see students evolve into:

• Confident public speakers
• Clear communicators
• Thoughtful thinkers
• Respectful listeners
• Young leaders with powerful voices

At Sampoorna Shiksha, we believe that leadership begins with the courage to speak—and when children discover that courage, they don't just grow, they influence, they inspire, and they illuminate the world around them.

The Public Speaking & Oratory Program is more than a set of sessions - it is the beginning of a lifelong journey of expression, confidence, and impact.
