ELMÉ MARGUERITE BOSMAN
Speech and Communication Specialist

 

Elmé Marguerite Bosman

Sedert 1986 dosent in Spraak en Voordrag. Aanvanklik is gefokus op stemontwikkeling.
Tans behels die portefeulje benewens Spraak- en Stemontwikkeling ook verdere dimensies. Namate die Fakulteit Teologie beweeg in die identiteit van 'n ekumeniese, geïntegreerde en inklusiewe instansie, geskied opleiding van voordrag ooreenkomstig die behoeftes van die indiwidu. Die fokus verskuif verder na persoonlikheidsprojeksie, en studente ontvang opleiding waarin alle aanlegte en talente, asook behoeftes, aandag geniet. Kreatiewe en beeldryke taalgebruik en styl word bevorder binne die liturgie. Internasionale studente word afgerond vir die lewer van referate in Engels as die lingua franca.

Lecturer in Speech and Performance since 1986. Originally the focus was on voice training. At present the portfolio includes Speech and Voice Training as well as related competencies. As the Faculty of Theology is increasingly adopting the identity of an ecumenical, integrated and inclusive institution, performance training is tailored to the needs of the individual. The focus has also shifted to personality projection, and student training is designed to provide for all abilities, talents and needs. Creative and imaginative use of language and style is promoted within the liturgy. International students are coached in presenting papers in English as lingua franca.

QUALIFICATIONS
1974 Bachelor of Drama, Stellenbosch University
1975 Diploma in Higher Education, Stellenbosch Universit

VISION
My vision is one of dynamic and rewarding participation in a professional training and development context where my skills and experience are applied to the advancement of human potential through interaction and communication. I wish to contribute to a culture of creativity and respect through facilitating communication that is sophisticated, clear in meaning and appropriate and graceful in its execution.

In the faculty of Theology the focus includes performing the Word of God through the abovementioned skills.
