Alliteration Hot - How to Be a More Engaging Speaker
•
It starts with W.B. Yeats. This week, using word p0rn, I teach you how to train your ear to the sounds around you, how to use consonance, assonance, alliteration and onomatopoeia to sexify your speaking and writing, and I give you a mini-masterclass on pitch techniques in English. If you are are developing your English proficiency, or helping people to do so; if you are a public speaker, want to improve your public speaking or presentation skills, or become a better poet or writer, this episode is for you.
