Portland Community College | Portland, Oregon Portland Community College

Welcome to my home page for my Public Speaking Basics class, and 1 on 1 Public Speaking Coaching. Currently I teach  via Zoom through PCC Community Ed – non-credit classes See the current PCC Community Ed Catalog for details.

I really enjoying working with students to increase confidence, manage nervousness, and help students learn effective public speaking skills. I bring the love of teaching, a masters in Communication and the highest level achievement in Toastmasters (DTM) to share in all my classes.

The Basics class is small by design to assure everyone has a chance to speak, all in a fun and supportive learning environment! We learn about and then practice public speaking like creating a speech, using an outline, and effective delivery skills.

The 1 on 1 Coaching sessions include public speaking skills buildings and are also tailored to meet your specific needs. For questions about the Basics class or Coaching, send an email to: sue.wendel@pcc.edu
