Is anyone else planning to attend the Educators Rising Nationals? I’m curious because I haven’t seen much information about it. This will be my first time, and I have a few questions about how the event works and what the schedule looks like. Specifically, I’m wondering what the competition is like for public speaking. Any insights would be great!
Hey! Yes, I’m going to Educators Rising Nationals too! It’s an amazing experience, especially for first-timers. The event usually has a packed schedule with various competitions, workshops, and networking opportunities. You can expect to have a mix of individual and team events throughout the week.
For public speaking, the competition can be quite intense, but it’s also really inspiring to see the talents of other participants. You’ll be competing against peers who are just as passionate about education, so it’s a great chance to learn from them and improve your own skills. Make sure to practice your speech multiple times and be prepared for questions if it’s part of the format.
It’s helpful to connect with other attendees on social media or join a group to share tips and advice. If you have any more specific questions about logistics or what to bring, feel free to ask! Good luck, and I hope you enjoy the experience!
