Please contact us for a general (5-10 minute) introduction to the Speaking Center. We are happy to host your class in our workshop room (#114 Cook Library) or come to your classroom.

We are also happy to work with you to tailor a workshop unique to your assignment needs. Topics include, for example, paper to presentation, communication apprehension, visual aid, and delivery basics. To schedule a workshop, contact USM Speaking Center Director Dr. Laura Stengrim at laura.stengrimFREEMississippi.
