The Hard Shoulder Highlights

"Stand up, speak out..."

James McGovern is a secondary teacher in St Mary's CBS in Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford. His book, "Stand Up, Speak Out: Memoir of a Public Speaking and Debating Tutor" tells the story of his students who became national speaking and debating champions.
