What people have said about the course

'I undertook the course, as a firefighter and having had virtually no experience in public speaking. I enrolled as I was about to release my first Book, and knew I would be doing some speaking events based around this. I chose the NIDA course specifically for its story telling component as my book is a memoir.

I have just returned from the UK, where I spoke at several events and did 14 radio interviews. Last week I launched my book here and spoke at the event. Following this I have had some incredible feedback including words such as ‘inspiring, eloquent, strong’ etc. Many friends have asked where I learned to speak and commented on my ‘transformation’! I have since been asked if I would be interested in doing some corporate public speaking as well as other events.

The course has truly altered the course of my life and enabled me to tell my story and share my message (around grief, mental illness and suicide) in a genuine, authentic and accessible way. So please do thank Matt and Sonia on my behalf. Their teaching has been invaluable to me.'
