About Little Loudspeakers Academy

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]About Us

We come from a family of educators. We are the sixth generation of English, Math, Science, and Speech teachers in our family. Starting with our great grandfather started us on this path of education. He set up many schools and charitable organizations. He was a high school math teacher and his wife was science teacher. Since then every generation of our family has gone into education. I am a Communications professor at Foothill College, CA.

Pablo Picasso said,  “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” My gift has always been my public speaking and debate. In my education, I noticed that my speech and debate accolades, awards and experience always placed me on level above my peers. I wanted to give the gift of speech and debate to more and more students in my community.

I have had the opportunity to coach, judge and inspire many young speakers and aspiring debaters. I realized that I have a great passion and drive to bring the joy of communication arts to many. As an elementary school teacher in a National Blue Ribbon School, I found that no matter what subject I taught, I ended teaching my students the essentials of public speaking and debate. My students have always found success with speech and debate and in academic communication.

Now as a Professor at Foothill College, I get to teach communication exclusively to adults and teens from all walks of life. The ability to communicate truly sets you apart from the rest. It is the most sought after 21st century skill. It is my honor and privilege to share that with you.

My entrepreneur husband worked for some of the top after school public speaking institutions. We were disheartened to find that most of these places did not focus on student’s individual growth and success. They were more invested in their profit margins. The more time my husband spend at these institutions, the more discouraged he got. We had gone into this thinking that we are both in our own way able to bring the gift communication to our community. Finally, he took the brave decision to leave his high paying job to create a true educational service that honors and focuses on student growth and success. And thus Little Loudspeakers Academy came to life.
