Caroline (club president) welcomes Sylvie and William

We like to ask our members to share why they decided to join our club. This is what they mention.

Sylvie :

Je ne suis pas une personne timide, mais je manque de confiance en moi. Lorsque je prends la parole en public, je ne suis pas à l’aise. J’ai terriblement le trac et j’ai peur de bafouiller…

Oui, je peux faire faire le clown, pas de problème ! Mais parler sérieusement devant un auditoire, ça, c’est une autre paire de manches. J’ai l’intention de parler en public pour faire des ateliers de Bien-Être et pour ça je dois savoir parler en public.

William:

I often find myself having to speak in front of a group of individuals at work, to either present a report, instruct a group of colleagues or simply weigh in on a subject matter. Despite being comfortable with it, it would be an over-exaggeration to say that I have mastered the art of public speaking. Indeed despite watching master orators and sophists, I find myself to be lacking clarity and finesse in my delivery.

So after much research, I decided to attend St-Lawrence Toastmasters to see what it takes to be a Toastmaster. I was mesmerized on the very first evening by the calibre of the presentations, the dedication shown by the members and last but not least, the welcoming atmosphere.
