the information in this course was presented clearly and consicely.
Great use of time - the concepts taught in this course can greatly improve people's ability to create a powerful impression in a public speaking setting, interview, sales pitch or conversation. The slides could be better - they work ok for following along during the presentation, but aren't very good for review. A couple of the slides had videos where the music was so loud the instructor couldn't even be heard.
STOP and watch this course. Busy cramming to meet the end of the year CPE mandates. Was putting most on 2x speed and listening in background (clicks anonymous reviewer); then I got to this course. I couldn't look away. Watched the entire 90 minutes - fascinating speaker, now love the piano guys, and already enrolled in the speaker's only other course. I guess you could say I was captivated... in 30 seconds.
The Final Exam threw me for a loop: three famous presenters are mentioned in the Final Exam not even mentioned at all in Gold's presentation. I had to look them up, watch 2 Ted Talks and do additional reading to answer the questions, and then barely passed. Great presentation, but please make the questions match that presentation, which I watched 3 times to make sure I didn't miss anything.
This covered such a wide variety of critical speaking situations, I consider it a must have for anybody that has anything to important to say to audience of 1-100,000. I will be recommending it to my college grad before he goes out on any interviews and using it for leading my local ladies connection group but its applications are endless. Bravo!
This was the most engaging course I have completed thus far. The speaker was clear, captivating, and organized. I will certainly look for more lectures given by Nathan Gold. In terms of constructive feedback: I recommend updating the exam as there are a few questions included that were not covered in the presentation.
This was a wondeful webinar! it has provided a lot of useful techniques that im going to apply to my presentations from here on. Nathan was really enjoyable to listen as well. It was a worth the time and money. The course gave me good information to use in a upcoming high profile presentation that i am about to give.
This course provided an in-depth review of understanding and appealing to your audience, including many useful techniques as well as fun and engaging methods to remember key concepts. The instructor presented materials in an engaging way and provided a useful collection of supporting materials.
This class was excellent. Packed with very useful, practical information and delivered in an engaging way full of examples. I highly recommend this class to anyone who would like to improve their presentation skills. I will likely re-watch it for reinforcement.
One of the best courses that I have taken on Illumeo. Lets be real, we are doing this for the most part to complete continuing education requirements; so to run across a course that is informative, useful and entertaining, that's a huge bonus!
I really enjoyed this presentation. As an Accountant and Consultant I am asked to speak to people all the time, this will now give me a different approach that I feel will help me connect and let the audience know that I know who they are.
I rarely give 5-star reviews, but he is a great presentor. I wish all the other instructors used his methods. The other classes only use power point with audio while Nathan uses this video format of classes properly.
A lot of great information. Almost too dense in details. The companion materials were good with helping me stay on track and I'm sure will be a great resource.
Informative for preparing a presentation. This can help you get the attention you need to make your presentation heard. Good ideas and in a simple way.
This course is very practical. The instructor made the topic very relatable and provided simple, easy to implement tools for connecting. Excellent!
The course was great and went directly to the point of providing helpful tips vs the theory of it. Powerpoint is very helpful take away as well.
I enjoyed this. I'll rewatch this later before my next sales pitches and will aim to fulfill these best practices. Interesting points, thanks
This was the best course I've taken on Illumeo so far. I will view it again. It's a great tool and help when preparing for a presentation.
Fantastic course! Mr. Gold presented his material in an interesting, easy-to-listen-to manner and provided great tips that were meaningful.
very informative. a lot of information to retain, if you practice this method, i would suggest going over the material several times.
Great course; very engaging and definitely some really good tips on getting your audience to be captivated by your presentations.
Good information, well presented. Would be great to hear how to apply this to finance type presentations or job interviews
Very articulate, concise and insightful! I would recommend for anyone looking to improve their public presence.
Good course. Like the different type of openings. I get stuck in the same opening and this was interesting.
This seems like pretty proprietary stuff that would be difficult to use anywhere else... but thats my two cents
Good presentation. Only feedback is that audio was only available on one side of my earphone (left).
This is an outstanding course for anyone who needs to influence an audience. I highly recommend it!
The two SAME tools are great, I will surely make use of the things I have learned from the course
Feel very much more prepared for a big presentation and to have some great points to refer back!
Enjoyed this course very much, I have many takeaways to consider when presenting in the future!
Great course. Presenter is very engaging and clear. I will recommend this to all of my friends.
