Norcross sits in Gwinnett County, where families are served by schools like Norcross High School and Meadowcreek High School, along with the area's middle schools and other nearby high schools. Wherever a student attends, the work is the same: speaking clearly and holding a room in the settings that actually count, from class presentations and club interviews to scholarship panels and everyday discussions.
Because Norcross is roughly 50 minutes from our Woodstock base, the most practical fit for most families is live 1:1 virtual coaching: the full Rhetrix method over Zoom, with real-time feedback, on a schedule that doesn't involve a long drive across the metro. Sessions run $200 each and are especially effective for targeted preparation, a college interview, a scholarship panel, a presentation that matters. For families who want the immersive version, the five-day summer day camp ($750, 90-minute sessions) meets in person at Woodstock Community Church.
Rhetrix is not debate and not theater. It is communication-presence coaching for real rooms: how to organize a thought, deliver it with composure, and answer questions without losing your footing. Coaching is grouped by grade band, with a track built for where a student is developmentally, whether that is a sixth grader finding their voice or an eleventh grader preparing for interviews and college. Every session ends with individual feedback the student can actually use the next time they stand up to speak.
What Norcross parents ask us most.
What is the best way for a Norcross family to do Rhetrix?
For most Norcross families, live 1:1 virtual coaching is the best fit. It delivers the full Rhetrix method over Zoom at $200 per session, with real-time individual feedback and a schedule that avoids the roughly 50-minute drive to our Woodstock base. Families who want the immersive version can choose the in-person five-day summer camp ($750) at Woodstock Community Church.
Which Norcross-area schools do you work with students from?
We coach students from across the Norcross area, including Norcross High School and Meadowcreek High School, plus the area's middle schools and other nearby Gwinnett County high schools. Because coaching is virtual, a student's specific school or attendance zone doesn't change how the sessions run.
Does virtual coaching actually work for public speaking?
Yes. Public speaking is about how you organize a thought, deliver it, and handle questions in real time, all of which translate directly to Zoom. In 1:1 virtual sessions the student presents every session and gets individual feedback every session, which is often more focused than a crowded classroom. It is especially strong for targeted preparation like a college interview, a scholarship panel, or a presentation that matters.
How much does it cost and what grades do you coach?
Rhetrix coaches students in grades 6 through 12, grouped into four grade-band tracks: New World (6th), Rise Ready (7th-8th), Break Through (9th-10th), and Leading Edge (11th-12th). For Norcross families, live 1:1 virtual coaching is $200 per session. The in-person summer day camp is $750 for five weekday sessions.
