Description

Journalism. Imagine yourself hosting a talk show and you are coming across as engaging, likable and totally natural. Wouldn't it be nice to know that you can host any talk show and appear to be confident, relaxed, conversational and able to talk to guests in a meaningful way? 

  In this How to Be a Talk Show Host Journalism course, you will learn the following: 

  * The difference between being a good talk show guest versus a good host 

  * How to look comfortable and confident on TV 

  * How to appear natural and sound conversational 

  * How to rehearse using video 

*How to be comfortable in the medium of broadcast journalism.

  This journalism course is delivered primarily through spoken lectures. Because the skill you are learning is speaking related, it only makes sense that you learn through speaking. 

  The skill you will learn in this class is not primarily theoretical or academic. It is a skill that requires physical habits. That is why you will be asked to take part in numerous exercises where you record yourself speaking on video, and then watching yourself. Learning presentation skills is like learning how to ride a bicycle. You simply have to do it numerous times and work past the wobbling and falling off parts until you get it right. 

  This Journalism course contains numerous video lectures plus several bonus books for your training library. 

  TJ Walker has been coaching and training people on their presentation skills for 30 years. Now, through the power of Udemy's online platform, he is able to give you the same high quality training that he gives in person to CEOs, Fortune 500 executives, and Presidents of countries. Only you can now receive the training at a tiny fraction of the normal fee for in-person training. 

  How long this course takes is up to you. The longest part of the course involves you speaking on video, critiquing yourself, and doing it over until you like it. But if you get to the point where you love how you look and sound when you present it will be well worth the time spent. And having this skill will save you time for all future media presentations in your life. 

  You can begin improving your media presentation skills right now. You may have an opportunity to speak out as soon as tomorrow, so why waste another day worried that your media presentation skills are not up to high standards. Enroll in this course today.

There is a 100% Money-Back Guarantee for this journalism course. And the instructor also provides an enhanced guarantee.

Most of the time, the course was spent talking about himself, instead of giving good advice/tips. Even the last section was spent on him talking about giving “him” a good review and how to do it. Plus saying his customers give him 10,000 dollars and how we’re getting that 10,000 dollar advice, yet never gave it.

TJ's course was very interesting, insightful and a great source of inspiration for me to improve my skills as a host/interviewer. I really liked TJ's straight forward approach, not beating around the bush and his very practical tips & tricks. One addition I believe would be great to include into this course: "how to politely interrupt people who don't come to an end". I know there's a few ways, but I think it would be great to get some of TJ's expert tips on how to handle those kinds of situations. No matter if the format is for TV, social media, web or something different. Overall, I highly recommend this course!

I enjoyed participating in this course. It gave me some good points to remember when I am making my videos for work (which is what I took this class for). The points on speaking (pausing, adding inflections) were the best!

Hey TJ! thank you for the great course!! Although most of the information shared seems somewhat somewhat basic initially, but with enough practice you will see the improvement that we all seek! We all have to remind ourselves to put things in practice and hit the record button! For future reference, i think it would be extremely helpful to provide more content specifically relating to hosting shows on major social media platform such as Youtube, Tik Tok etc..( deconstructing the hosting styles of popular influencers for one) as they're probably more relevant to aspiring young hosts nowadays. Perhaps it could be structure as a different course along with the camera confidence that someone else mentioned previously in the comment~ Hope that helps! Thank you again for the great course! Boy

The course is very basic common sense techniques. Very well explained even to someone who has absolutely no idea of media or hosting. Confidence building techniques could be added to give students a boost as nerves can be an issue. Overall a good fast simple course to follow. Thank you

I think the course is good, I just feel the editing could have had a bit more variety. Different angles, text, slides etc. otherwise good stuff and thank you so much!

It isn't really interesting and it could be more fun so that people of all ages want to do it instead of wasting time or money just to be bored.

The course gave insights on things that are practically possible and can be effectively achieved with constant practice. The easy yet seemingly effortless advises were so informative. Looking forward to practice and hone the skills.

its because am more interested in radio talk show though even this information is much better because i think when hosting a show you need these ideas from Tj and for me it has moved me more steps as far as journalism and talk show is concerned and communication skills in general

As a professional journalist and broadcast producer, I find most of this course is common knowledge, so far. The hope is that it will become more technical - in terms of acquiring a new skill. I look forward to reading the PDF's with the same hope as well.

Very informative short and to the point. I have just launched an online Talk Show for educational purposes and for people to talk. This course was a confirmation of what I was already doing. The only questions is when to interject the interviewee?

I started as a Model / Actor years ago but even when international job offers came to me for hosting events and show offers I had no training so it made me nervous ! Thanks!
