Working with Ian Davis has been one of the most beneficial elements in my children’s education. Ian has a way of drawing out students to their full potential. He is able to meet the student where they are and bring them to the next level rather quickly. His expertise and phenomenal personality makes the students comfortable and desirous of working harder. He not only helps students become phenomenal speakers, he does the more important thing. He teaches them to believe what they’re saying. Challenging students to really grasp the depth of the topic, the emotion behind the text, the gravity of the subject, their reason for speaking, Ian gets to the heart of the matter. This is what makes great communicators ... authenticity. The student no longer is afraid of speaking, rather they begin to realize that it’s a calling. I wish there was a higher recommendation level, I would give it. The five children of mine that Ian worked with are more confident people because of their time with him. And if you’re learning to speak for some type of competition, hold your hat because he pretty much brings everybody to the national level.

I like Ryan because he is relatable. He is a good teacher but switches things up because he is still a young adult. I think he’s able to teach me because he’s still in touch with modern games and music. I find it fun even to learn from because it’s nice to be able to relate to a teaching figure. --- Kieran
