Speaker Coach in PowerPoint:

  • Rehearsal companion: Ideal for practising presentations, it analyses your pacing, pitch, filler words, and informal language while you rehearse your slides.
  • Personalised feedback: After each run-through, you receive a detailed report highlighting areas for improvement, along with helpful suggestions and statistics.
  • Variety of metrics: It focuses on aspects like pacing, pitch variety, filler words, wordiness, and slide reading, giving you a comprehensive picture of your presentation delivery.
  • Private and secure: All feedback is processed locally and kept private, ensuring your practice sessions remain confidential.

Speaker Coach in Microsoft Teams:

  • Real-time insights: This version analyses your speech during live meetings or presentations, offering private, real-time feedback on your delivery.
  • Post-meeting summary: After the meeting or presentation, you receive a comprehensive report with similar insights and suggestions as the PowerPoint version.
  • Focus on engagement: Metrics like energy, inclusivity, and formality are added to the mix, helping you connect better with your audience.

  • Microsoft Speaker Coach provides valuable feedback and guidance to help you become a more confident and effective communicator. Whether you’re prepping for a big presentation or honing your meeting participation skills, Speaker Coach can be your virtual coach, offering insights and suggestions to refine your delivery.
