How I Help You Speak with CONFIDENCE & IMPACT
I know how overwhelming public speaking can feel, trust me…
Maybe you’ve walked into a room and felt the weight of expectations. Or maybe you’ve had a moment where your nerves got the better of you and overshadowed the message you wanted to deliver. Or maybe you’re a seasoned professional speaker and have lost that love and feeling and need to find your joy and purpose again.
That’s where I come in.
I’m Maria Tecce and I specialize in helping professionals like you overcome those challenges and turn public speaking into a skill you can rely on in any communication situation.
Using techniques I’ve honed from over 30 years of performance and coaching, I’ve developed a practical, results-driven approach that will help you get the results you want from any communication situation.
I’ll HELP you to:
Conquer nerves
and speak with calm authority.
Deliver clear, engaging messages
that resonate with your audience.
Build the confidence
to own your story, own your voice, and own the room.
My focus isn’t just on teaching you how to speak
It’s on equipping you with tools and techniques to communicate and speak in a way that feels authentic, impactful, and gets you the results you want in all your speaking situations.
Your Challenges.
MY SOLUTIONS.
“I feel nervous and unsure of myself and my nerves are getting the better of me”
Through exercises rooted in performance and psychology, I’ll help you transform nervous energy into presence and poise.
“I don’t know how to engage my audience and I’m afraid I won’t keep them listening.”
We’ll work on techniques like storytelling, vocal dynamics, and body language to help you connect authentically with any audience.
“My message gets lost or isn’t clear.”
I’ll show you how to structure your content for clarity and impact, turning complex ideas into messages that stick.
“My vocal delivery is flat and boring, and I’m afraid of my audience tuning out.”
I’ll teach you how to add vocal variety, energy, and emphasis so your words come to life and leave a lasting impression.
“I’m speaking too fast and I don’t know how to slow down when I get going!”
We’ll use pacing techniques, breath control, and awareness exercises to help you speak at a steady, impactful rhythm.
“I get bored and feel apathetic when I’m speaking because I give the same pitch many times.”
Together, we’ll work on ways to bring fresh energy to every pitch, keynote speech, or presentation. I’ll show you how to reframe your message and deliver it in a way that feels exciting for both you and your audience.
These aren’t quick fixes—they’re lasting skills you’ll have for life that you can apply to every presentation, pitch, or meeting.
I help you be more of the best of yourself more of the time.
Why My Experience
WORKS FOR YOU
I’ve spent decades on stage, performing in front of audiences of all sizes. Those experiences have taught me what it takes to captivate a room, manage nerves, and deliver a message not just with impact but with joy, energy, and a bit of style.
Now, I use those same principles and techniques to help my clients in the corporate and professional world.
I don’t teach you anything I haven’t used myself. All the skills I give you are techniques I use in my own speaking and performing every day.
From Performance to Presence
I’ll teach you how to use voice, body language, and movement to command the room, connect with the audience, and exude confidence.
From Storytelling to Connection
My background in storytelling and acting helps you craft stunning presentations that are memorable, relatable, and engaging.
From Practice to Practicality
Everything I teach is designed to be actionable and practical in real life situations. You’ll leave each session with tools you can use right away.
WHO I Work With
I’ve helped professionals across industries transform their speaking skills.
Executives preparing for high-stakes presentations, updates, or board meetings.
Leaders looking to inspire and connect with their teams and communities.
Professionals delivering pitches or keynote speeches.

No matter what your role is or industry you work in, I tailor my approach to meet your specific challenges and goals so you can master your speaking, own your confidence, and get the results you want in all your communication situations

My coaching is built on three key principles
Practical Solutions for Real Challenges
Every session is tailored to your needs, focusing on the skills that will have the biggest impact on your communication.
A Safe Space to Learn & Grow
Public speaking can feel vulnerable, but I create a supportive environment where you can experiment, make mistakes, and build confidence.
Lasting Transformation
The techniques I teach aren’t just for one presentation—they’re tools you’ll use throughout your career to communicate with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Client SUCCESS Stories
These success stories are why I love what I do—because I know these results are possible for you too.
Before meeting Maria, the thought of presenting to a live audience filled me with overwhelming anxiety. I would have shied away from any opportunity to speak publicly. However, Maria’s excellent coaching and the safe space she created for me to work on my fears have been transformative. Her guidance helped me become more confident and powerful in my presentations.
I have successfully completed my first speaking opportunity in years and even volunteered for another one. Maria’s support has been invaluable in my journey to overcoming my anxiety and embracing public speaking with newfound confidence.
Earl M.
I loved Maria’s energy, rigour, and the combination of being switched on and serious while also having fun.
She opened my eyes to how everything is interconnected from posture, to breath to vocal tools – it’s all an inside job.
The insights came thick and fast and I’ll be applying them beyond speaking, as we did today on our website text.
Maria is a powerful sage who will show you how to discover your authentic voice
James D.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Maria. She gave me an appreciation of my abilities and the confidence to deal with difficult work situations.
She uses her humour, compassion and direct nature to bring out the best in me. Through my work with her, I learned how to better manage my time, be more productive and to project myself in a more positive manner.
She helped me get through a very challenging 6 months with a combination of encouragement and common sense. I feel ready to tackle whatever comes my way. Bit of a “kick ass” attitude which is what I needed!
Vivienne K.
As an experienced presenter and facilitator I was looking to bring my communication skills to the next level. I wanted to understand more about the nuances involved in connecting with and moving an audience.
Maria was excellent in coaching me through this. She was perceptive around where I was strong and needed improvement, and provided me with great tools to help improve how I communicated with clients. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to develop in this area.
