      How does Sprout coaching work?

      A seven-year-old in a holiday class and a leader preparing for a board meeting practice the same three things, each at the level that fits them. We call them the Sprout Model.

      An adult speaking naturally and at ease to a small group during public speaking coaching
      NaturalnessYou learn to speak as yourself, calmly and at ease, instead of reciting. Your coach starts from how you already speak.
      A speaker using voice and expression to hold an audience
      VoiceYou practice your volume, pace, pauses and eye contact, so people hear you and follow you, even when nerves arrive.
      A speaker explaining an idea clearly to an engaged audience
      WordsYou learn to choose and organize what you say, so your main point comes early and people remember it.

      What happens between sessions?

      Practice continues on SproutHub, Sprout's practice platform, so the coaching keeps going after each class.

      1. Record a short practice speech

        Your coach sets an assignment after each session.

      2. Receive written feedback from your coach

        You get specific notes on what worked and what to try next.

      3. See the progress over time

        Parents can follow every assignment and every piece of feedback.

      Questions people ask

      Still unsure? Call +254 795 756 688

      How do I choose the right program?

      Use "Which program fits you?" above. Choose who the coaching is for, then the kind of program, and you will see its next dates and fees. If you are still unsure, book a free consultation and a coach will help you choose.

      How do I register and pay?

      Press Register on any program. The checkout opens on this page, you choose your class, and you pay by card or M-Pesa. A first payment holds your place and counts toward the fee.

      Do I need public speaking experience?

      No. Beginners and confident speakers both join, and every program starts from where each person is today.

      Are classes online or in person?

      Most programs run both ways. When you register, each class shows where it meets, or that it is online.

      What ages do you coach?

      Children and teens aged 6 to 17, in three age groups: Sprout Spark for ages 6 to 9, Teen Titan for ages 10 to 13 and Sprout Star for ages 14 to 17. Adults and leaders join group classes or one-to-one coaching.

      Can I get a refund?

      We do not give refunds, but money you have paid carries over to a later class or term of the same program.

      Would you like to talk to a coach first?

      Tell us who the coaching is for and what you hope for. We will help you choose the right program and its next date. It is free, and there is no pressure to register.
