Why Public Speaking Matters?

Public speaking is a critical life skill that fosters confidence, improves communication, and empowers students to express their ideas clearly and persuasively. At Nalanda Vidhya Mandir, we recognize the importance of honing these skills early in life to prepare students for leadership roles in their academic, personal, and professional lives.

Our public speaking program provides students with the opportunity to learn the art of speaking in front of an audience, building both confidence and fluency. Whether in the classroom, during school events, or in external competitions, students are encouraged to practice and refine their speaking skills.
