"There is not a better book on teaching speaking than this one. I’ve been using PVLEGS for over a decade and it never gets old. Get this book."—Dave Stuart Jr., high school teacher and author of The Will to Learn "Well Spoken is an essential guide for educators aiming to cultivate confident and capable speakers. Erik demonstrates that speaking skills can and should be taught. The second edition brings his ideas alive in the new digital age where these skills are even more valuable."—Russell Findlay, CEO of Speakers Trust, the UK's largest dedicated public speaking charity. "Erik Palmer’s PVLEGS should be the cornerstone to every school’s curriculum. Students in today’s world need specific and guided coaching on how to look up and connect with the world around them, so they can present themselves for success. I have been integrating Erik’s books into my ELA & Drama curriculum for over twelve years, and I have seen measurable and meaningful success in thousands of middle school and high school students. Whether it be with an elbow partner or an assembly, Palmer’s books provide concrete scaffolding on how we should speak aloud. When students apply the PVLEGS, they face the common fear of public speaking and say, ‘Let’s dance.’"—Alyssa Brumbaugh, middle school and drama teacher “Clearly written and full of numerous effective strategies, Well Spoken offers invaluable advice and tools for teachers who recognize the importance of teaching the art of speech”—Kelly Gallagher, teacher, author, speaker, coach
