Fina 'TOAST MASTERS" group. They are everywhere. Also there may be a "meetup" group that can help. Go to www.meetup.com for that. Also read EVERYTHING you can on EMOTIOBAL INTELIGENCE, there are several books on the subject. PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! that is what I did.

That sounds like good advice. My 20 year old is dyslexic, and is really going through some big issues with confidence and talking to people. I wish we had gotten him into something like toast masters before he grew up and wasn't in our home anymore. He can function, but if he wants to suceed in what he enjoys I think he'd do better with a little bit more confidence.

Toastmaster is not for kids. He is the age for it now. A year in this would give him a life long advantage.

Toast Master is an international non profit where people go to learn communication skills. It is often held(in the states)in the morning before work or during lunch. People go to learn how to speak in public. I found some for NV their looks like some stuff for him on www.meetup.com also. Both are cheap or free.
