Toastmasters gives you the opportunity to practice different types of speeches in a friendly environment where constructive feedback is welcomed.
Meetings involve a combination of:
- prepared speeches;
- short, impromptu speeches (Table Topics); and
- evaluations of speakers' performances.
Club members give prepared speeches of typically 5-7 minutes length, which are then constructively evaluated to help the speaker improve their public speaking.
During Table Topics people speak "on the spot" for around a minute on a topic given by the evening's Table Topics Master. Guests are welcome to participate in Table Topics if they so choose.
