Toastmasters is an international organisation with hundreds of thousands of members. It's a non-profit organisation that has one objective: to assist people to develop their communication and leadership skills. Toastmasters meetings are a safe environment in which to learn. Everyone who attends is there for the purpose of gaining the skills from the Toastmasters program. You will learn the basic techniques to capture your audience and effectively communicate your message. Participants have a variety of opportunities learn about public speaking at every meeting. We learn by: Practising speaking in front of the group Listening to others speak to the group Evaluating and listening to evaluations of speeches Following the Toastmasters program of advancing in steps Mutual support and encouragement.
