CHECK OUT OUR SPEAK & SHINE® YOUTH CLUB VIDEO

Hi! I'm Dr. Sunny Fridge, Co-Founder and CEO of Speak & Shine® Academy.

In today's world, artificial intelligence can answer questions, write essays, and generate content in seconds.

But there is one thing AI cannot replace:

✨ A young person who can think critically, communicate confidently, and connect with others.

That's why I invite your child to join the Speak & Shine® Youth Club, where students develop the communication and leadership skills they'll need to thrive in school, college, careers, and life.

Since 2019, we've empowered young people to discover their voice, build confidence, and become effective communicators and leaders.

Why Communication Matters More Than Ever

As technology continues to evolve, employers, colleges, and communities will continue to value young people who can:

✅ Speak confidently in front of others

✅ Think critically and organize their ideas

✅ Collaborate and lead teams

✅ Present ideas with clarity and conviction

✅ Build meaningful relationships

These are the human skills that will always matter.

What Students Learn

Our virtual club meets via Zoom on Saturday mornings during the school year and provides a supportive environment where students practice real-world communication skills, including:

🎤 Public Speaking and Presentation Skills

💡 Critical Thinking and Quick Thinking

🗣️ Impromptu Speaking Practice

🌟 Leadership Development

🤝 Teamwork and Collaboration

📋 Meeting and Time Management Skills

💬 Constructive Feedback and Growth

Most importantly, students learn to believe in themselves and their ability to make a difference with their voice.

Summer 2026 Training Program

This summer, we're offering a combined online public speaking course and Youth Club training experience for students ages 9–15.
