Grammar! For many of us, the word triggers memories of finger-wagging schoolteachers, and of wrestling with the ambiguous and complicated rules of using formal language. But what is grammar? In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.

Education can be enriching and transformative. It can also be downright excruciating—even demoralizing. When it comes to learning, why are some of us lovers and some of us haters? Welcome to the world of educational psychology, which uses science to explore what causes people to engage and learn, and what we can do to make learning opportunities more enjoyable and impactful. Spoiler alert: Teachers can only do so much. Students, too, must take control of their learning. Unfortunately, many of us never, ahem, learned the skills to do just that.

This book is comprehensive!
This is an excellent book on learning how to become a more effective public speaker. The book takes you through steps to become better and more confident. My favorite is the discussions on the practice using the power stance. This stance adds to your confidence and when practicing in front of a mirror, does wonders! From here you can also learn how to outline your speeches better. This is an excellent book.

Good for Those Afraid of Public Speaking
As an adult, I have always been afraid of public speaking which is weird because I used to do it as a child all the time! I really liked this book because it broke down each faucet of public speaking to make it seem less stressful and more enjoyable without the anxiety. It tells you what to do, how to think, and where to go in your mind while you're speaking. I highly recommend for those who a scaredy cats like me!

Comprehensive advice that works
The strategies for overcoming anxiety, the focus on preparation, understanding your audience, and even the part on how to use your voice effectively started to make sense to me. My favorite chapter was the one on social anxiety and transforming fear into confidence. For the first time, I'm not trying to avoid speaking opportunities. I've led a few meetings at work that have gone really well. If you're like me, someone who used to lose sleep over speaking in front of an audience, this audiobook is for you!
