Mirroring a Model Speaker to Shape your Public Speaking Persona

Description: Mirroring techniques involve careful study of a sample of a model speaker of your choice, who you will then imitate in all aspects, including verbal and non-verbal behavior. In this workshop, we will highlight what aspects to notice in your model speaker, followed by how to analyze and get feedback on your own performance. The ultimate goal is for you to be in full control of how you shape your identity as a speaker in a first or second language.
