I recently had the pleasure of participating in Bonnie’s program through the Toronto Lawyers Association. I wholeheartedly recommend Bonnie to anyone interested in improving how they communicate whether on a professional or personal level. Bonnie helps you identify and enhance your natural speech patterns…It is an amazing program that is definitely worth the time. I have taken other oral advocacy courses and can confidently say Bonnie is second to none.

I feel this is one of the best learning experiences I’ve had.

Everyone thought I did a great job and was one of the best speakers including better than the keynotes… the success was because of you. If we had not worked together, it would have a different story.

Having taken over 200 hours of IBM skills training, I believe this is one of our best courses. It stands out in terms or content quality, it is well organized and it is taught by distinguished instructors. The skills I learned are practical, I was able to apply them immediately, and greatly I improved my SPEAKING MASTERY and confidence.
