Some of the participants’ reactions and feedback
By the virtue of what I do, I speak in public almost every week. I never understand the depth of rehearsals until now. There are churches that invite me to speak most times and I ask why I should rehearse. Without rehearsals, I cover just a minute/small part of my talks. But now with this training I now realize and understand the effect of Rehearsal ¬ Pastor Okechukwu Ogwu.
Responding to Pastor Okechukwu, Barrister Owoseni asserted that when you understand that there is more to pass out that you do not know, you see yourself seeking for more knowledge’. He further declares that one of the reasons we do not rehearse is over confidence.
I studied Communication Art at about 23 years ago when I was so young, my father spent a lot of money on this course to train me on my degree for three years. This training made it more applicable and simple. It was just broken into pieces. – Mrs. Folasade Oyeniyi
The training was supported by IofC Nigeria and facilitated by Victor Douglas Malasowe
