My child attended a trial session and, despite initial anxiety about speaking in front of seven classmates, enjoyed the experience. The class was structured and systematic, which helped ease his nerves. The trainer, Mr Darren, was encouraging and even used my child's phone to record his presentation. This was especially helpful, as the recorded video also included constructive feedback, allowing us to review the session together at home.

As a parent, I appreciated that there was no hard-selling of packages or promotional pitches. Their pricing is transparent and reasonable, with no extra material fees. It’s also reassuring to know that this is not a franchise setup. Each class runs for 1.5 hours with a maximum of 12 students, which I feel is an effective ratio for personalized attention…I would recommend Public Speaking Academy HQ to other parents. Their trainers are listed on their website along with their credentials, and the academy is an MOE-registered enrichment centre with MOE-registered trainers. That gave me additional confidence in their professionalism and teaching standards.

I attended a trial class taught by Darren and i gained amazing insights from him. He's a very confident, encouraging, approachable, friendly teacher and always gives very thoughtful feedback which are also applicable to other students and allow everyone to have a chance to speak and even host kahoot quiz section to allow students to really learn and ensure they understand what he have taught during class as some of the questions are repeated. He also gave worksheet to fill in and allow students to each brainstorm a script along with the context and a sample of the speech to refer and learn from. Would really recommend parents to allow their children to attend his classes as he's really patient and wonderful!

My boy had been learning from Teacher Darren and his team for almost 2 years, and it is his favourite enrichment class.

Under the guidance of Teacher Darren and team, my boy improved further on his public speaking skills especially in the impromptu segment. This has hugely helped him to be the champion in 2024 Public Speaking Competition (Primary category) from 8th spot in 2023.

Not only is Teacher Darren really good at his craft, he is also highly energetic and has very good character - a very good role model for young children, plus he knows how to engage children in his class.

Highly recommended!

Attending the 9-18 Public Speaking training course has been extremely useful for me, educating me on speech techniques and formats while the weekly presentations instilled confidence in my public speaking. PSA has given me the opportunity to learn and improve my communication and presentation skills in a fun and engaging manner. Thank you Mr Darren Tay!!

My son has been learning at PSA for slightly more than 2 years and I can't thank them enough! I only have good words for them. Everyone is so friendly, helpful, and everything is well organized to make sure we get our money's worth. Public speaking is something one has to practice often, and the result shows. The teachers at my son's school all said he speaks very well. He also aced his prefect interview and got accepted, thanks to PSA's help as well. I recommended PSA to all my friends and the ones joining PSA also felt the lessons are useful. Thank you, PSA, and all the best!!!!

Before I started attending PSA’s classes, I was an introvert who had very Low self esteem. During my first class, I spoke with a lot of hesitation and swayed from side to side. However, after going though about a year of public speaking training, my became more confident in presenting and learnt how to speak confidently. Using hand gestures while speaking casually became very natural for me. This has allowed me to present well in school environments and communicate my ideas effectively. Plan to participate in the National Public Speaking Competition next year.

Mr Tay's classes are super effective and enjoyable. I looked forward to his lessons every week and it really helped me grow more confident and proactive as a person. He helped me to develop my public speaking skills and to present myself confidently in front of a big crowd. Today, I can even dance and act in front of big audiences! Thanks Mr Tay!

My child completed her one year program for speech excellence programme 9-12yo with PSA. She enjoyed every lesson, learned different techniques and became a more confident person. Mr Darren is a passionate trainer and an inspiration to the young generation. Thank you PSA.

PSA of Mr. Darren Tay was discovered when it’s advertisement popped up on my FB home page and I thought to enroll my daughter, Malak, in 2020. Since then we have not looked back and continued the course for 2 whole years even though the duration is one year. Malak had stage fright prior to joining PSA. We love the way PSA classes are conducted with Kahoot games. She volunteers to do presentations in class which shows me how far she has come from the shy girl who always said no to go in front of an audience. Thank you Mr. Darren Tay and team for the guidance and training you give to today’s generation. Best wishes!
