Are you interested in improving your speaking abilities? Would you like to be able to express yourself more effectively?

Come visit our Toastmasters club in downtown Montreal and find out how we do it!

Here is the program for the St-Lawrence Toastmasters meeting scheduled for October 1, 2019.

Toastmasters est plus qu’un environnement amical pour améliorer vos compétences en art oratoire. C’est aussi un endroit pour se faire des amis, partout dans le monde. Bien que notre club Toastmasters soit basé à Montréal, en tant que membres de Toastmasters International, nous pouvons assister aux réunions de tout autre club Toastmasters du monde.

Yanick en visite au Club Bokoto Toastmasters (Ouganda)

Yanick, membre de notre Club St-Lawrence Toastmasters, a récemment visité un club en Ouganda :

J’ai pensé à vous ce soir car j’ai visité le club Toastmasters Bukoto. Ils ont une formule quelque peu différente, fort intéressante. Ils ont un Hark Master. Ce rôle récompense les gens qui ont écouté attentivement en posant des questions spécifiques sur les orations.

J’ai eu la chance de participer aux Table Topics (session d’improvisation). C’était bien le fun!

Si vous aussi vous êtes intéressés à vous à joindre une organisation mondiale, venez nous rendre visite!

Voici le programme pour la soirée du 24 septembre 2019.

It gives us great pleasure to welcome three new members to our Toastmasters club.

Caroline (club president) welcomes Robyn, Andrew and Melanie

We always like to ask new members to share with us some of the reasons why they joined Toastmasters. Here is what they have to say…

Robyn:

I joined St-Lawrence Toastmasters to not only practice my public speaking skills in French and English but to become more assertive in all areas of my life by communicating with purpose and integrity. As someone more soft-spoken, this is a challenge for me but one that I’m excited to take on. This in turn will have a big impact on my journey as an aspiring entrepreneur!

Andrew:

I heard about Toastmasters through an acquaintance and a podcast I listen to. Through positive reviews, I decided to try it as a guest. Upon coming to St. Lawrence Toastmasters, I really liked the group vibe for constant improvement and encouragement. My motivation for joining is to become a better communicator in work and social situations. I feel with the welcoming and positive environment at St. Lawrence I can accomplish this goal and am always excited to learn more about speaking and about the club members who are always there to help and encourage.

Melanie:

I am naturally a very shy and reserved person. Public speaking has always been challenging but over the years, I have made it one of my goals to improve my public speaking and communication skills. After participating as a guest at a few toastmasters meetings, I know that this club will help me reach my potential.

Here is an entertaining and light-hearted TED@State Street talk given by Joe Kowan, that gives a detailed glimpse into the emotions and feelings that people can have when they get stage fright.

Are you prone to having stage fright at some level? If so, perhaps Toastmasters can help you to overcome that fear.
