APS雅博领英孩童公众演讲

为什么要参加APS?

在现代社会,除了要拥有渊博的知识和掌握各种技能,向不同的人群展示自己的才能,传播自己的理念也是非常重要。APS就是为青少年提供这样一个社交和演讲平台!让别人能知道你的长处,倾听你的声音,理解你的想法,认同你的观念。

在这里,你会得到鼓励,抛开害羞侃侃而谈。在这里,孩子们可以告别紧张和局促不安,说出自己心底的话语,那是埋藏许久不敢说的话。在这里,他们能接触到不同的人交到朋友,听到很多新颖的观点并能激发自己的创新能力。2017年5月中旬,APS的夏季汇报演出舞台下座无虚席。四年级的Zelin 在百余人面前由衷地向老师们鞠躬致谢,坦言在APS受益匪浅。5月底,APS首开儿童心理讲座。请来了儿童心理学博士,Fulton小学系统心理辅导,作家 Dr. Donna Gardner。现场30位学生们模拟如何对应校园中的各种隐形 bullying 问题。活动好评如潮!

 

APS是如何运作的呢?

在这支由核心家长们密切合作的团队中,主要有两大部分。

第一,教案编写组,这是APS的核心团队。教案组一位老师来自加州,她多年有Toastmaster Youth培训的经验,也长期开课教公众讲演。另外一位老师是有近20年大学教授并且长期公众演讲的经验,拥有教育学院硕士和博士学位,因为她的硕士主修教案编写,所以非常适合开发教案。我们最新的一位教案老师原来是大学辩论队队员,也拥有丰富的现场经验。此外,教案组的老师们都是附近 Toastmaster International 的固定成员。

APS中间有四位老师于2017年年初接受了CNN 16年头条新闻主播 Sachi Koto 女士的演讲集中训练。

第二,教师组,是最直接的信息传递和教导者。他们中间有的是老师,有的是医生,有的是工程师,都是各行各业的博士硕士们。当教案编写好了以后,经过培训的教师组近20人实践上课和排演。值得一提的是,我们的教师都是对孩子们尽心尽力的家长义工。APS的原则是,经过考核的老师只带自己孩子所在的那个班,因为她/他最了解这个年龄的孩子们如何教,需要什么资源,以及如何考核学习的效果。

ABOVE Public Speaking

ABOVE Public Speaking, Inc. is a non-profit organization designed to promote public speaking skills among young kids and youth. Located in Johns Creek area of Georgia, our speech and leadership programs teach public speaking and listening, critical thinking, and research, and enhances the students’ ability to apply these to their subjects of interest.

We believe that the earlier we prepare our children for public speaking, the easier it gets. APS provides students, from pre-k to 8th graders, early exposure to public speaking to gain high levels of self-confidence, innovation, and leadership in their lives.

Since October 2016, APS has offered public speaking classes to more than one hundred students, who have already taken advantage of the resources and trainings offered by APS. With a team of about twenty adult teachers and three professional instructional and curricular designers, APS has made significant improvement among our students, who have obviously become more expressive. We encourage students to give as many speeches as they want with scaffolded teaching structure. In addition, a series of activities were hosted by APS in the past 10 months, which include theatre performances, book reading clubs, pediatric psychologists’ seminars, etc..

Our Address is:10450 Medlock Bridge Road, GA 30097

 

Right now, APS is making the following expansion as followings:

A. Registered and formed an International Toastmaster Youth Gavel Club in Johns Creek, which meets every fourth Sunday of the month, which is:
– To help its members improve their abilities to communicate effectively
– To provide for its members instructions, educational materials and opportunities, which will give them skill and experience in the preparation and delivery of speeches
– To encourage its members to read and to listen analytically
– To provide its members fair and constructive evaluation of their efforts toward self-improvement
– To increase its members’ knowledge of the rules of parliamentary procedure and their skills in conducting meetings and participating in group discussions
– To afford leadership training for its members
– To provide opportunities and encouragement for its members to appear before audiences and to express their thoughts creditably

 

B. Continue in our endeavors in public speaking, leadership, and success programs of teaching:

  • Enrich our curriculum design of public speaking teaching so as the cover the following contents: voice force, palm gestures, body postures, detailed description, engagement, tonality, eye contact, feet & walking, acting gestures, audience participation, courage, & facial expression.
  • Create diversity for the training purposes, which include but do not limit to, specialist speech, teacher speech, leader speech, storyteller speech, director speech, salesman speech, debater speech, entertainer speech, motivator speech, caregiver speech, healer speech.
  • Form a Leadership program in which local high school students may volunteer and serve the community of local youth, in the form of seminars and events about leadership and social community development.

 

C. Form Reading Clubs and Debating Teams

  • For kids under 3rd Grade, we have Sparks Reading Club that help them form good habits of reading;
