Speaking Center

The Speaking Center offers in-person oral communication tutoring sessions and strategic communications workshops, centralizing communication support for the campus community located within the Colket Center. We connect CC students with a network of trained peers who can support their learning in communication. We believe that communication is formative and foundational to human identities, relationships, and communities. Moreover, ethical and strategically effective communication can be the means of critiquing, constructing, and transforming identities, relationships, and communities.

  • Using Language Effectively
  • Speaking Anxiety
