Hi
Does anyone know of any communication skill course or something
I only know of think school's course
Actually I'm really scared of the interviews
I'm really shy
My English is good but I'm just not able to speak loudly or confidently around people especially authority figures so if anyone knows any course from which I will be able to improve, please let me know or if you have any other tips

Few years ago, I tried clapingo (app) for three months to improve my English speaking. We can book slots whenever we want with different instructors who'll either interview us or make us talk about extempore topic which they'll provide before the call. After doing this for few months, I felt more confident in talking with strangers/authorities. If u want, do a demo class :)
is it paid?
Yes, during festive season they give offer, I paid around Rs.2000 for three months
A safe space for your 4am thoughts, and everything that doesn’t fit elsewhere (we won’t judge).

Even if you crack IPMAT, you'll not have an easy time in the interview or the cohort if your communication skills are compromised.
Treat English as a language (not a subject like quants). Think, talk, text, type in English.
Now, coming to the interview. There's no shortcut. Your first 10 interview experiences are going to be a hot mess. However, your 11th interview experience might be much better.
To reach your 11th interview experience, you must go through your first 10 interview experiences where you absolutely bomb this. You need to experience and fail faster.
Being shy is a social construct. You're afraid of failing and saying something dumb, you're not afraid of talking. Recognise that the cost of inaction is a lot more than the cost of failures.
Start asking seniors or your friends to take mock interviews in real life. Be so confident about your content that you don't feel nervous.
Okay bhaiya,
Yes, I actually love reading. The problem is that I don’t have much practice in speaking, and I feel like most of my knowledge is only surface level. I don’t really know how to express myself, and that makes me nervous. I’m confident about my academics, but when it comes to GK or geopolitics, I worry they’ll ask something I don’t know. I mean I know that I can't know everything but still
Break it down. Name 5 major geopolitical issues that have occured recently.
Protests in Nepal
Trade Uncertainty with US due to tarrifs
Trump withdrew US from the UN Human Rights Council
Trump slapped 1,00,000 dollars fee for H1-B visas
Iran Israel War
Lovely, now figure out how you can talk 4-6 lines for each (2 general pointers that hit the nail on the head wrt the issue, 2 nuanced pointers from business/management perspective, 2 pointers on how it affects us i.e. India).
Easy! Will take you less than 15-20 minutes and you'll come out smarter.
Record yourself speaking it, do it every other week.
Okay thank you so much!!
