Public speaking, debate, and Lamda speech exams are areas in which Brandon students excel. Confident public speakers thrive in our communication based world.
Through our specialist programmes, Brandon students learn to develop their confidence, structure their thoughts and develop polished communication skills.
Each public speaking class follows a carefully structured curriculum that incorporates critical thinking skills, current affairs and literature. Students are continuously assessed by our teachers who monitor progress and provide reports on individual development. Younger students learn how to organise their thoughts, broaden their vocabulary and add detail to their presentations which helps in primary interviews. Older students engage in debate and discussion designed to equip them with the skills they need for secondary and UK school interviews. Since 2005, we have been teaching our successful public speaking class at a range of Hong Kong schools including DBSPD, ISF Academy and Queen’s College.
Our Lamda and English Speaking Board assessments provide our students with an opportunity to work towards external qualifications which are recognised by top British schools.
