Public Speaking Course
with LAMDA Certification
School Grade 2 - 12
MUMBAI IN-PERSON CLASS
Public Speaking through Theatre
The Public Speaking Programme will help children grow into confident, clear communicators — an essential skill for school, leadership, and everyday life. They will learn to express ideas clearly, structure thoughts logically, and speak with presence. Through guided learning and practice, students will build courage, reduce stage fear, and encourage self-expression.
Students may take the London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art (LAMDA) examination (optional) or an internal examination at the end of the programme. While highly recommended, this is an optional examination; those not taking the exam will have the same learning journey and an internal assessment. Every student will receive a J’s Academy certificate on completion of the programme.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How involved do parents need to be?​
Parents play an important supportive role. We encourage you to stay informed by checking your emails for notices from the Academy, ensure regular attendance and help the student practice at home when needed. However, all teaching and learning take place in class under the facilitator’s expertise.
-
How can I track my child’s progress?
Student progress is shared through scheduled feedback reports and Parent-Teacher meetings. You can also contact us via email to arrange a call with the facilitator. However, it takes time to see tangible progress and we request you to be patient with the process and the child.
-
Do certification exams at this age put pressure on students?
The exams are an important part of the learning process, designed to strengthen understanding and build confidence. While the word ‘exam’ can sound stressful, performance-based, group assessments conducted in a fun, supportive and pressure-free environment. The experience of working towards a goal solidifies their learning, instilling a sense of achievement.
