Public Speaking
We received an overwhelmingly positive response to Public Speaking classes at Do-Re-Mi, and we’re excited to share that these classes will begin in August and continue through the school year!
The classes will follow a structured curriculum, focusing on:
confidence, speech structure, voice projection and modulation, non-verbal communication, storytelling, audience engagement, impromptu speaking, persuasive speaking, and presentations.
Classes will be held on Thursdays:
5:30–6:30 PM — ages 7–10
6:45–7:45 PM — ages 10–14
Instructor
As a public figure, Vineeta Khanna experienced firsthand the importance and impact of effective public speaking. This realization inspired her to begin offering public speaking lessons over 12 years ago.
Since then, she has helped hundreds of students and professionals—from elementary school students to corporate executives—develop confidence and authenticity as speakers. With more than 15 years of experience hosting a popular South Asian radio show, along with guest appearances on NPR in New York and Philadelphia, Vineeta is a highly respected communicator.
She also made history as the first South Asian elected to public office in Livingston Township, where she served as President of the Board of Education and Vice Chair of the Zoning Board of Adjustment.
“Speaking in front of an audience doesn’t come naturally to many people. Vineeta is a wonderful teacher and her public speaking class turned my son into a polished confident speaker. She is very dedicated and to quote my son “makes any topic interesting”. He learned how to engage an audience, how to project his voice, how to keep the content interesting, how to think on his feet and respond to questions, how to pay attention to his body language etc. He acquired all these in a few weeks of taking her classes. Your kids can’t go wrong with Vineeta! Sit back, relax and enjoy the transformation!”
