Start Your Child's OdysseyHow the Odyssey Program Works
Every child starts with an assessment. From there, your coach builds a personalized path - choosing lessons that match your child's current level and push them toward the next milestone.
Personalized from Day One
After your child's free assessment, their coach identifies their starting point and maps a learning path tailored to their skills, confidence level, and interests.
200+ Lessons, Infinite Paths
Our curriculum covers speech fundamentals, persuasive writing, debate, critical thinking, and leadership communication, with lessons chosen specifically for your child.
Celebrate Every Milestone
Every 24 lessons, your child earns a new certificate and unlocks the next level of their journey - from Explorer to Legend, building confidence with every achievement.
What Your Child Will Master
Our curriculum is built across six core skill areas:
Public Speaking Foundations
Speech preparation, vocal delivery, body language, eye contact, managing nerves, and connecting with an audience.
Persuasive Communication
Crafting compelling arguments, structuring speeches, writing with impact, and learning to move people with words.
Debate & Critical Thinking
Understanding debate formats, building arguments with evidence, cross-examination, rebuttal, and thinking on their feet.
Real-World Topics
Lessons are tied to age-appropriate, engaging topics your child actually cares about - current events, ethics, pop culture, and more.
Leadership & Presence
Executive presence, storytelling, negotiation communication, and the confidence to lead in any room.
Confidence Under Pressure
Managing nerves before a big speech, thinking on their feet during Q&A, and performing with poise - skills that transfer to every classroom and job interview they'll ever face.
The Odyssey Milestones
Every child's path is unique - but these are the milestones they'll unlock along the way. Each milestone is earned after completing 24 personalized lessons.

Designed by Experts
Our 200+ lesson curriculum was developed by certified teachers and expert speaking coaches with years of classroom and competition experience.
Personalized Delivery
No two children follow the same path. Lessons are chosen by your child's coach based on their individual progress, strengths, and goals.
Certified Achievement
Every 24 classes, students receive an official TalkMaze certificate of achievement - a tangible milestone that recognizes their hard work.
TalkMaze is a great platform for kids to learn public speaking and boost their confidence. We just had our first 2 sessions and can already see the quality, organization and punctuality. Instructors are well versed with the subject.
