Presentations, Interview Skills and Revision Techniques

Training packages for schools, colleges and universities

Much will be demanded of young people as the enter the world of work.   The skills needed to pass exams are radically different from what they need to thrive and survive in their careers. Despite being a core competence, effective spoken communication is rarely taught in schools, colleges, business schools or universities, but for the past 25 years, I’ve helped bridge that gap, working with KS4 students through to post graduate level, PhD students and even Fellows!

Whether you need your students to excel in interviews, sharpen their presentation skills or understand how to make messages stick, we can help.

My training courses, keynotes and masterclasses are aimed at improving students’ ability to craft the spoken word for maximum personal impact.

I’ve also a proven track record of getting students to think differently about how they approach their exams.  To find out more, jump over to www.bluecaterpillar.co.uk to see how we make a difference.

CASE STUDY

The Challenge:

A local school have a high number of students applying to university and needing to attend interviews - especially Oxbridge interviews. Although academically very strong, many lack the core skills and experience to handle an interview well.

The Solution:

Interview Skills workshops.

For many years, I have helped students at this school prepare for their Oxbridge interviews as well as other university and job/intern interviews. The workshops are highly practical in nature with a little theory and a lot of practice. Feedback has always been overwhelmingly positive with students believing the experience made a huge difference to their performance on the day.

“Dear Tim, thanks for our training sessions! Our joint work is extremely helpful for our current process and - just as important – it was a great experience and so much fun! The potential buyers’ feedback was overwhelming!”

Andreas Laabs, CFO LR Holding

"On behalf of the complete team, I would like to thank you very much for all your patience, ideas and invested hours to get us to where we needed to be - we are done and have delivered. The presentations were a huge success and - according to third parties - they set a new standard for Management Presentations - thank you!”

Dagmar Schmidt, President, Xsys

“I think that Tim did a great job! The day that I joined was pretty impressive from your side. I would definitely recommend you when we have other management presentations or other presentations where training is required. See you next time!”

Henk Ellens, ING

"Just wanted to say a huge thank you for the session yesterday. We’ve had some great feedback from attendees"

Kelvin Keane, Microsoft

“Thank you for being so passionate to help us in order to be influential, introduce our ideas, manage situations, and build strong connections with others.”

Khatib Alami , Course Participant

"It seems like the term ‘master class’ is thrown around indiscriminately these days and it degrades the term’s ability to describe a truly superlative experience and teacher. Tim’s coaching on communication fits the true meaning of the term. Even if I’ve been through many a roadshow and prepared countless slide decks, my skills have been measurably and significantly improved. I could not recommend Tim more highly"

Aaron Powers, CEO, Hunit
