Superior communication skills ensure success. For over 30 years, BASA has been helping young people to develop those skills. Using literature to hone speaking proficiency, develop critical thinking, and improve writing skills, our classes are tailored to the needs of individual students. Our program prepares students for success in all types of environments, from interviews and school projects to speeches, debates, performances, networking, and life.

Students cover a spectrum of skills, including:

  • Clarity, volume, and projection

  • Body language and facial expression

  • Greetings and conversation skills

  • Creative and persuasive writing

  • Critical thinking and decision-making

  • Confident presentation and communication
