Your first Toastmasters meeting - Part 2

Jane Fisher from Newtown Toastmasters

To continue our orientation to a Toastmasters meeting, let's talk about prepared speeches.

Each meeting includes up to four prepared speeches from members. The speeches are 4-7 minutes each, on a variety of topics and based on projects from one of the manuals in the "traditional" Toastmasters education programme (often the "Competent Communication" Manual) - or our "Pathways" Learning Experience, the online programme that was launched recently. Find out more about the exciting Pathways journey below!

Each communication project builds a particular skill - for example, structuring a speech, using body language or researching a topic.
