Welcome to Ars Rhetorica
Your stop for effective and persuasive writing.
Welcome to Ars Rhetorica, a speech and document writing service that will help you make your message clear, whatever that might be.
I have a background in the study of political communication in Ancient Rome, and have a strong track record writing grant applications, presentations, academic essays, and articles for international audiences.
I have also written and presented speeches for a range of audiences, and have taught writing and speech delivery to university audiences for the past five years. I started Ars Rhetorica (Latin for “The Art of Rhetoric”) to share my experience with others, whether that is through writing speeches or documents that can help them achieve their goals, or teaching them to write their own persuasive arguments and empowering them to speak with confidence about matters important to them.
I offer speech writing services; one-on-one public speaking coaching; workshops for schools, community organisations, or workplaces; and written document preparation.
Working with Ars Rhetorica means...
A qualified writer
I have a Masters degree and Doctorate in Classics focusing on political communication, and an extensive background in writing, speaking, and teaching.
Research-led practice, ancient and modern
I have a background in the study of ancient rhetorical theory, and pair this with modern research into the psychology of persuasive communication.
A personal touch
Personality is everything in a speech. I make sure your speech or document matches your personality as closely as possible so you can be confident in what you're saying.
No generative AI
A computer can write something for you, but it can never capture your personality. I write every speech and document from scratch with the individual in mind, so that we can focus on what makes you and your situation unique.
Passion
I am truly passionate about empowering people to change their lives through persuasive communication. Whether I am writing for you or teaching you to write your own arguments, I will give everything to make sure you feel confident speaking your mind.
