What is Toastmasters?
Toastmasters International is a nonprofit organization that has nearly 250,000 members in more than 12,500 clubs in 106 countries, offering a proven way to practise communication and leadership skills.
How does it work?
At a Toastmasters' meeting, participants practise and develop skills by filling a meeting role, ranging from giving a prepared speech or an impromptu one to serving as timer, evaluator or grammarian. There is no instructor; each speech is evaluated by another member in a positive manner, focusing on what was done well and what could be improved.
