Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I learned to brief in the military, delivering information briefs generally to senior level audiences. Over the past 20 years however, I've learned how to finesse my public speaking and how to inform, educate and persuade through speech. One of the most valuable lessons I learned during a Navy course on briefing was the concept of VEGA - Voice, Eye Contact, Gestures and ATTITUDE! This is how I have helped other presenters, instructors and briefers improve their delivery and impact during speeches and presentations, and it has worked for me over the years. Whether you are speaking to 10 people or 1,000, the basic concepts are the same, and public speaking is largely about your confidence in subject matter and yourself. That is what makes an effective speaker and presenter.

Best Tutor I've Ever Had!

Chris H. is an expert in his field of GIS. I had an assignment and a project in a GIS class that he helped me with that where both very complex and had to do with the environmental side of GIS. Chris's main field was not in the environmental subset of GIS but he was more than capable of designing model builders and zones. I also had problems finding data for my assignment and project which Chris was able to find for me. I would of had an extremely hard time passing my GIS class if it was not for Chris. Amazing tutor (best I've ever had) and very professional. I would recommend Chris to anyone for any facet of GIS.

Tutor responded:

Thanks Matthew. I'm glad I could help you with your project.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Chris was excellent at teaching the functionality of ArcGIS and efficiently troubleshoot my issues. He helped me learn some of the difference between ArcGIS and ArcGIS Pro. I highly recommend Chris as a tutor of GIS and I look forward to continuing my lessons with Chris.

Paul, 4 lessons with Chris

Great GIS Tutor

Chris is great; excellent job tutoring. He is very helpful, patient, and lets you the student set the pace, and how you want things to be taught, great job. I highly recommend him, and will continue to use him for the foreseeable future.

Sean, 32 lessons with Chris

The best tutor!

It is a rare combination to meet with a tutor, who is not only the top expert of his field of study but also can clearly explain hard to grasp concepts in encouraging and fun way!

Irina, 15 lessons with Chris

Awesome Tutor!

Chris is an experienced GIS professional with an abundance of patience. We could honestly discuss the issues, research to derive solutions with no judgement. Looking forward to the next session.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Chris was awesome. He was right on top of things. He was ready to go and helped me get through a challenging part of my assignment. I appreciate his awareness of the subject matter.

Carol, 8 lessons with Chris

Excellent tutor!

Chris is an extremely knowledgeable, very patient tutor who helped me massively with two spatial analysis assignments for my GIS Masters. Even when I ran into setbacks with ArcGIS Pro, Chris was willing to troubleshoot with me, and went out of his way after our sessions to message me the solution he'd found. I'd definitely recommend him!

Rowan, 1 lesson with Chris

Knowledgeable, patient

GIS tutor who was great in teaching me what I needed to know. Smart, patient, and knowledgeable. Not sure what else to say other than I’m glad I found him. I highly recommend him to other GIS students for his expertise.

Matthew, 8 lessons with Chris
Tutor responded:

Thank you for the feedback. It was my pleasure.

Knowledgeable, relaxed, full of content

Chris went through my Final Project for my arcpy course and he managed to write the code (skeleton) for my steps. Although I might have to debug and check it myself to see if it works, he ends up being a big help in getting me started in this final project.

Tutor responded:

Thanks Greg. Working with you on your project was fun and I learned new features of Arc Pro I hadn't used yet in the process. Glad I could help!
