Speech Writing and Coaching

To effectively deliver a speech, the writing must match the event and the personal style of the speaker. Enhance the power of your public delivery with a two-step process:

1) Writing and editing your speech to match your style, the tone of your message, and the caliber of the event.

2) Practice delivering your speech with special attention to tone, pronunciation, pacing, and expression to elevate the importance of your message.

“My son had Mr. Paquin in fourth grade, and for the first time, he was able to gain confidence in his public speaking skills! So when I found out that I had to speak on behalf of a philanthropic organization to encourage 60 women to make charitable donations, I knew just who to call! 

Mr. Paquin was able to adjust my written words to flow with more ease when spoken. He taught me how to use, and when not to use, my hands appropriately. He suggested when to add pauses… for dramatic effect. He skillfully demonstrated the best way to stand, make eye contact, and project my voice. 

Before I knew it, my presentation came together like the perfect ingredients in a chocolate chip cookie recipe. If even one ‘ingredient”’was left out, the cookie would not have been so delicious! Thank you Chef Paquin! “
