Here's How You Participate:

You may submit no speeches, one speech or a speech every week on a different topic. It’s up to you. The more you participate, though, the more feedback you get and the more you learn.

For each speech you will:

Step One: Deliver the speech to your cell phone or video camera
Step Two: Upload it onto the Competition Website

That’s it.

Then, every other camper is going to be asked to go on line and critique other students' videos, according to the exact same Judging Criteria that we will be using in the 2nd National Competition that starts in August. Also, your videos will be reviewed by experts in the field of Public Speaking and the first 10 videos uploaded each week will be personally reviewed by Richard Greene, who will provide extensive personal feedback.

The Creator of The Summer School Curriculum

Richard Greene, the author of "Words That Shook The World: 100 Years of Unforgettable Speeches and Events" and Founder of The National "Words That Shook The World" High School Public Speaking Competition, has been teaching the art and science of public speaking for over 23 years.

He has been called "The best public speaking coach in America", "The Master of Charisma" and was recently asked, by Fortune Magazine (October 1, 2006) to be the expert to share the keys to mastering that art in their "Secrets of Greatness" issue.

Here are what some prominent clients and others have to say about his revolutionary, easy and quick approach to helping people become great speakers . . .

"I learned more from Richard - in 2 minutes - about perfecting my presentation shills than I did by practicing for 22 years."
GAVIN BLAKEY
Past President
Toastmaster International, 2002 - 2003

"Richard is the Phil Jackson of speech coaches. He fights for every word to be perfect, picks up every delivery nuance, and is relentless in his quest to bring the best out of everyone he works with. On top of that, he approaches his craft with exuberance and wit and makes it fun for everyone involved."
STEVE BORNSTEIN
Former Chairman and CEO, ESPN, Former CEO, ABC, Inc.

"A wonderful, insightful guest. No one knows good talk better than Richard."
STEVE FRIEDMAN
Executive Producer, "The CBS Early Show," and Former Executive Producer, "The TODAY Show"

"Richard Greene has the rare and wonderful talent for dissecting speeches. He pinpoints the often-overlooked secrets to success -- the sites and circumstances; the phrasing, pacing, and cadences; the tricks great speakers use to forge emotional bonds with their audiences. When you explore a speech with Richard, it's like stumbling into a new world, filled with surprises, unexpected insights -- and fun."
TONY SNOW
Press Secretary, President George W. Bush, former Host, "Fox Sunday" and Fox News Channel and former speech writer for President George H. W. Bush
