So glad I attended last night’s toastmaster’s meeting. It has been a long time since I last attended the sessions mainly because of schedule conflicts. The meetings are set every 1st & 3rd wednesdays and 4th friday of the month. I’ll make sure I’ll attend frequently next time
If you wanna know what toastmasters is, it is an organization that helps people become more competent in public speaking I joined it last year because I really have troubles speaking in public, whenever the spotlight is on me, I just black out. Since I haven’t been attending the meetings much, I still have this fear.
Basically, toastmasters meet weekly where they practice their skills by filling a meeting role. Meeting roles are as follow:
Toastmaster of the Evening
General Evaluator
Language Evaluator
Table Topics Master
Time Manager
Ah Counter
Table Topics Evaluator
Speech Evaluator
Here is the program schedule that we follow every meeting:
Opening Portion (Invocation, Toastmaster’s Promise, Opening Remarks, Word of the Day, Introduction of Members & Guests)
Introduction of Toastmaster of the Meeting (Opening, Introduction of Meeting Roles)
Aside from being able to improve your speaking & leadership skills. One other thing that I love with the club I’m in, Emperor Toastmasters, is that the people are just sooooo warm & nice.
