I train individuals and groups how to transform anxiety by rewiring the stress response to communicate effectively and creatively.
- Are you interested in using dramatic techniques to move beyond anxiety in or out of the classroom?
- Do you or people you know suffer from stage fright or public speaking anxiety?
- Do you need tools for a more resonant confident speaking voice?
I offer talks and workshops in three areas and can customize these talks and workshops for educational conferences and individuals who need support getting past anxiety and the fight or flight response. Most talks are 45 minutes to an hour, and workshops can be 1/2 day or full day. I do somethings online but most of the presentations are in-person. I travel from northern Florida.

“Therese’s modeling of anxiety is a perfect way to remind instructors that everyone in class can use a little physical/mental/emotional exercise to relieve the stress that a course often brings.” ~ Faculty from Florida SouthWestern State College
“I hired Ms. Aylward-Kravetz after she recieved one of the most prestigious awards that can beset upon a professor at Northern Virigninia Community College, The Presidents Sabbatical Award. Through her research, Ms. Kravetz has germinated and grown the construct of utilizing dramatic techniques to keep students engaged in the classroom setting.
“The fact that Ms. Kravetz worked very closely with me to deliver perfect, customized content, (using drama/personality to help students learn Math) was an unusual deviation from the services that other consultants tend to deliver. I was pleased that I did not feel like I was getting the same ‘dog and pony show’ training that someone else would have gotten. Finally Ms. Kravetz was spectacular at utilizing technology and resources to assist in the delivery her instruction and consulting services.
“I would work with her again specifically because she made sure that she was listening to me about the problems that I was trying to solve and delivered programming that boosted my confidence in instruction and helped my faculty engage their students.”
~ L. N., Coordinator, Northern Virginia Community College

“This was a really interesting workshop! I’m going to try these techniques especially on test days in my class.” ~ Teacher, Florida
