About Us:
The School of Speaking is an entity managed and owned by Centre for Human Services (Singapore) Pte Ltd, established since 2013. The school is registered with the Singapore Accounting and Regulator Authority. Our coaches are certified in Public Speaking and are continuously upgrading their public speaking skills via a number of avenues. Many people had enquired about their desire to overcome their fear of public speaking through our flag ship company and therefore, this extension to clinical work germinated into the School of Speaking.
Public speaking is an important skill required to communicate knowledge and express ideas to individuals and/or groups of people. It is a primary medium for presenting and selling ideas and/or products. The ability to communicate effectively to individuals and/or to groups is essential in schools, at work, within communities as well as in your personal life.
There is a constant need for people who can communicate effectively. This skill set can help in all aspects of your work and social life. If you are good at it or really enjoy speaking to a crowd, you may even choose speaking as a profession.
Being an effective public speaker does not necessarily mean that you are the best there is. Rather, it enables you to be an enabler.

Our Aim for YOU
The School of Speaking (SOS) aims to provide the necessary competency training to you, who desire to build, upgrade and maintain the necessary skills in effective speaking. Based on some studies, it is found that many people fear public speaking more than they fear death. This puts public speaking as the number one fear for many people.
On closer examination, much of this fear is attributed to the fear of rejection, being judged and/or perceived to be unprepared. This leads to a loss of self-confidence which is a vicious circle.
