One of the most useful, perspective-shifting workshops I’ve ever done.
Herman doesn’t just teach you how to speak better — he changes how you think about public speaking altogether. A lot of what he says goes against the usual advice, but that’s exactly why it works.
Herman himself is warm, open, and genuinely interesting — the kind of teacher that leaves a mark even after a single one-day session. I left the session with some seriously smart tips, fantastic insights, and a confidence in my skills that I plan to keep for years.
Honestly, I feel lucky I got to do this. 11/10!
Only left a 5-star rating.
Really improved my public speaking. Highly recommend.
Herman gave me thoughtful, specific guidance but more importantly, he reminded me of the fundamentals we often forget: be kind to yourself, visualize what you’re saying, and treat every presentation like it matters. And he’s right. Those lessons apply to every talk I’ll ever give, no matter the topic.
He truly practices what he preaches giving me his full attention and going out of his way to help me grow. I’m a better presenter because of him, and I know he’ll do the same for anyone lucky enough to work with him.
Just took this public speaking class with Herman. He’s honestly amazing. Super supportive, made things click, and kept it engaging and practical the whole time. I don’t have many words to describe the quality of his teaching, it just really stuck with me.
This class was absolutely exceptional. Herman provided such a well-rounded, in-depth, and customized lesson that equipped me with actionable techniques and confidence. I was blown away by how much I learned and how many concrete changes I was able to implement to improve my public speaking. I have experience with public speaking but could not overcome specific hurdles on my own. I really appreciated how customized the lessons throughout the day were to fit each participant's level of experience and individual concerns. I cannot recommend this class enough!
Just wrapped up a transformative day with Herman Otten!
The tips and tricks he shared were incredibly impactful... simple, actionable, and game-changing. It’s only been two days since our session, and I’m already noticing a real shift in my confidence and clarity when presenting.
Herman helped me understand how to own the room — from posture and pacing to storytelling and tone. I now catch myself being more intentional with my words. Even in day-to-day conversations since the session, I'm applying what I learned and feeling the difference.
Working with Herman was immensely helpful. No matter what your experience is with public speaking, he is very easy to work with, providing quick and easy to implement tips to create immediate improvements. It's a fun and engaging environment and I'd highly recommend him for anyone who is looking to improve their public speaking.
Herman is a great public speaking teacher, would 100% recommend.
I took both level 1 and level 2 classes last year and found them extremely helpful. The advice and tips that Herman gave were practical and actionable, and tailored to everyone in the class. The small class size allowed each individual to practice and learn from one another. Six months after the workshops, I feel more confident and at ease when speaking in front of a group or giving presentations during virtual meetings. Both my coworkers and I have noticed improvement in my public speaking.
