What Toastmasters has done for my personal life of public speaking.
I joined Toastmasters to learn better methods in speaking in public. Like many folks I was a bit shy and had a fear to speak in public. I knew that I had to do something to improve my public speaking skills and to be relaxed when speaking to various groups.
Toastmasters has allowed me to use the necessary training through impromptu Table Topics speeches and making planned speeches to varied groups. I would definitely say that Toastmasters made my life free of the fear of public speaking and I highly recommend joining Toastmasters to everyone who wants to improve public speaking skills and overone the fear of speaking before an audience.

I joined Toastmasters to improve my communication skills and improve my self confidence. By attending the weekly meetings, I get the opportunity to practice my communication skills. Not only does Toastmaster help inprove your communication skills, it also help you learn valuable leadership skills. During the last few years as a member of Toastmasters I have been the VP of Public Relations, Club President, and am currently the VP of Education. As VP of Public Relations, I learned the skill of writing acticles for the newpaper, as President of the club, I learned the valuable skill of presiding over meetings, and as VP of Education, I am learning the skill of scheduling. I have also taken it upon myself to design the website to learn that valuable skill.
