Behind the Mic

Behind the Mic is the official educational blog of Global Kids Speak, created for students, parents, and educators who want to understand what truly makes a powerful speaker.

​

Public speaking is more than confidence and charisma. It is a skill grounded in structure, psychology, preparation, and intentional practice. Behind the Mic pulls back the curtain to explore the principles that shape effective communication, from how a speech is built, to how a speaker thinks, prepares, and delivers with impact.

​

This blog is designed to help readers:

​

• Understand the theory behind public speaking

• Learn the principles of speech construction and delivery

• Explore Ethos, Pathos, and Logos in real-world speaking

• Master voice, presence, and non-verbal communication

• Build confidence through preparation, not memorization alone

• Support young speakers with practical, research-informed guidance

​

Whether you are a student developing your voice, a parent supporting your child’s growth, or an educator seeking deeper insight into communication skills, Behind the Mic provides clear explanations, real examples, and practical strategies that transform speaking from fear into mastery.

​

At Global Kids Speak, we believe every voice deserves to be understood, not just heard.

​

Behind the Mic exists to ensure that when our students step forward, they do so with knowledge, purpose, and power.
