Why Public Speaking?
Public Speaking builds up confidence, improves communication skills, and helps in overall personal development. While we are taught various subjects in school, there are no courses in Public Speaking. Our belief is that if we can learn some of the techniques at an early age, it will help us throughout our lives. |
|
Why Math?
At Xcelerate NC, we believe learning Math can be fun. We would like to share some of the innovative approaches and concepts that we have learnt and applied over the years. |
