In the News: Toastmasters Int. Gets Recognition as a Resource to "Get Over the Fear of Public Speaking"
..."The great thing about Toastmasters is that it provides a safe space to practice your public speaking (everyone is there because they want to get better too!) and you get constructive feedback on your presentations from people who have been studying with the program for a while. It’s as close as you’ll get to taking a class on public speaking without paying a lot of money...finding a place where you can practice presenting in front of an audience without the pressure of a high-stakes spotlight is really the first big step to becoming more comfortable with public speaking..."
Key Take Aways:
- Practice (in a supportive environment, like Toastmasters)
- Put yourself out there
- Learn from the experts (observe advance speakers, how they speak and their body language)
