We can help you to:
- Decrease your fear of public speaking,
- Learn how to organize and conduct a meeting
- Organize and present information more skillfully through a series of prepared speeches
- Think more quickly through one to two-minute impromptu speeches
- Integrate constructive criticism into your prepared speeches
- Develop leadership skills
Toastmasters members learn by speaking to groups and working with others in a supportive environment. A typical Toastmasters club is made up of 20 to 30 people who meet once a week for about an hour. Each meeting gives everyone an opportunity to practice conducting meetings, giving impromptu speeches, presenting prepared speeches, and offering constructive evaluation.
Please come and join us, where you'll experience a warm and fun lunch hour meeting. AND it's free for guests! We meet every Wednesday at noon. We're located at Workplace Safety & Insurance Board at 200 Front Street W, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Contact us for meeting room location. We look forward to welcoming you as a guest or a new member to Simcoe Speakers.
