The well-known saying is that a picture is worth a thousand words; but what if you’re the picture, and you’re being shown off to a gorgeous woman, or even perhaps a prospective employer? Would you like the way you look? Are you happy with the vibes that you think you give out? What are your eyes, hands and shoulders saying? A little worried aren’t we?

Workshop on tips for public speaking school studentsZAINI ABDUL WAHAB
Introduction to the basics of public speaking for secondary school students with basic theories and practical exercises.
A half day program from 9am to 1pm on Saturday.
Everybody lies sometimes. This is true. Research has shown that 60 per cent of people lie at least once in a 10-minute conversation with a stranger. But many lies are benign, constructed to preserve someone’s feelings, save face or avoid damaging a relationship. These lies are usually harmless, expected and appreciated.
Dishonesty in the workplace, however, can be dangerous. From the lies told in employment interviews to tales spun in the boardroom, workplace dishonesty can affect a company’s security, morale and bottom line. HR professionals and investigators should be skilled and trained to detect lies.
Join Timothy Dimoff, security expert and president of SACS Consulting, as he discusses workplace dishonesty and what to do about it.

14 Grammar Mistakes that May Discredit Your Message
1. 14 Gr ammar Mis tak es
That May D is c r edit Your Mes s age
Tips presented by:
2. • Nauseous probably doesn’t mean what you think it means…
‘to possess the ability to produce nausea in others’
“For many women, the first trimester of pregnancy is nauseous.”
• Nauseated is most likely the word you want…
‘to become or feel disgusted or sick’
“I was nauseated during the first 4 months of my pregnancy.”
Nauseous vs. Nauseated
4. If you ever type out the words above, you’re wrong!
Could’ve, would’ve and should’ve are all legitimate verb contractions.
But, when we speak, the “’ve” sounds like “of”.
Hence, people write things like:
“I should of gone to the meeting.”
This just makes you look silly. Instead try this:
“I should’ve gone to the meeting.”
Could Of, Would Of, Should Of
5. • A Compliment refers to a nice thing someone says. It can be
a verb or a noun.
“My boss complimented my presentation skills.”
• A Complement is something that adds to something else or
goes well with it. It can also be a verb or a noun.
“The visual aid really complemented your speech.”
Compliment vs. Complement
6. • Affect is almost always a verb. Something affects
something else.
“Your ability to run this meeting successfully affects your
chances of getting a promotion.”
• Effect is most often a noun. An effect is the thing
caused by the affecting agent.
“The effect of poor meeting management on a person’s
ability to climb the corporate latter is well documented.”
Affect vs. Effect
7. • Fewer is used when you can count the thing you are referring
to.
“I think we can have fewer meetings if we use our time
effectively.”
• Less is used when you can’t count the thing you are referring
to.
“Ineffective meetings make us less productive.”
Fewer vs. Less
8. • Use i.e. when you want to say, “in other words” or
“that is”.
• Use e.g. when you want to say, “for example”.
i.e. vs e.g.
9. • Peek – a quick look
• Peak – a sharp point
• Pique – to provoke or instigate
Does this pique your interest?
Peek vs. Peak vs. Pique.
10. • Awhile is an adverb. It means “for a length of
time”.
“The meeting is awhile before lunch.”
• A while is a noun. It means “a length of time”.
“The meeting isn’t for a while.”
You can “talk awhile” or “talk about something for
a while”.
Awhile vs. A while
11. Both are correct. Just don’t use them
interchangeably. “Toward” is American,
“towards” is British. Choose one and stick to it.
Toward vs. Towards
12. • Principle is “a moral rule or belief that helps
you know what is right and wrong that
influences your actions”.
“This goes against my principles.”
• Principal is the person who is first in rank,
normally at a school.
“The principal hired new teachers.”
Principle vs. Principal
13. • This mistake is so common that some
dictionaries formally accept “accidently”
as a variant of the word “accidentally”.
“Accidentally” is always accepted as the correct
spelling, while “accidently” can be technically
correct if you take the time to prove it to
someone. It’s best to use “accidentally” in
formal writing.
Accidently vs. Accidentally
14. e.g. “make a 180” or “make a 360”
• If you make a turn and end up facing the same
direction, you’ve made a 360-degree turn. You’ve
ended up right where you started or come full
circle.
• If you make a turn and end up facing the opposite
direction, you’ve made a 180-degree turn. To do
a 180 means to completely reverse your
direction.
360-degrees vs. 180-degrees
15. This is on every ‘grammar mistake list’ that
exists, yet we see this mistake everyday. This is
probably due to poor proofreading. Always
remember to double check to ensure you’re
using the correct its (it’s).
• It’s = it is
• Its = possessive version of it
Its vs. It’s
