Where GLO Skills are Used Today
What’s the one skill you use every day in your entire life?
It’s not critical thinking.
It’s not leadership.
It’s communication.
If you can’t speak impactfully, how can you lead student clubs, stand out in college or master’s interviews, get top internships, or work at your dream job?
If you can’t speak effectively, how can you develop relationships, manage teams, share opinions, and deliver presentations?
Especially for those who want to study abroad or work at global companies, the earlier you develop English public speaking, the better.
That’s why we created ECHO Public Speaking Booster. We want to help you speak English confidently without fear on the stage.

Why Your Peers Love ECHO
Practical frameworks
“ECHO is one of the few programs that truly teaches skills you can use right away. The lessons were intense but rewarding. Every minute felt worth it.”
Frequent practice in small group setting
“Most camps just lecture, but ECHO gives you the mic. Every round of practice came with direct feedback and even video recordings for self-review. No one laughed at mistakes. There were only encouragement and constructive feedback. It was the first time I really felt GLO’s spirit, and ECHO made me want to be a student ambassador for my school.”
Friendly, encouraging environment
“ECHO created the most positive English-speaking space ever! My squad teammates, instructors, and instructor assistants all practiced with me and cheered me on. By the end of the two days, I actually felt more confident on stage.”
Growth without pressure
“Joining ECHO was the best decision I made this year! I was nervous at first, but the environment was so encouraging that you end up excited to try. You don’t feel as much pressure because ECHO created a no-judgment learning environment. After two days, my improvement was obvious.”
