This free 4-week crash course is designed to help international graduate students and postdocs prepare for upcoming oral presentations about their research. The course will focus on communication clarity, including organization, delivery (phrasing, pausing, intonation, stress, and vowel and consonant sounds), and non-verbal communication.The class will meet two times per week, in addition to one-to-one tutorial sessions with the instructor to target individual pronunciation and oral communication challenges.This course is intended for those who already have specific research they are working on and will likely present in the near future, but is open to any Georgia Tech international graduate student or post-doc scholar.
