25.01.2022 If you’re looking for the wow factor for your next presentation then look no further! Check out the video included in today's blog, that touches on points which will help you give an amazing presentation next time around! https://ruletheroompublicspeaking.com/amazing-presentation/

24.01.2022 Do you look to the floor when you make a speech? Do you "um" and "ah" when you lose track of your thoughts? Do you clasp your hands behind you when you speak? These little things might be the difference between engaging or distracting your audience. At Ipswich Toastmasters, our experienced evaluators can provide you with constructive and helpful feedback that you can use to improve your next speech.... Pictured right is Jim with his speech evaluator, Marianne. Marianne not only provided Jim with valuable feedback on his speech, but was able to provide some great tips that benefited all members of the meeting. Thank you Jim and Marianne!

16.01.2022 The Power of Moments. Think back on the course of your life and you can likely identify a number of defining moments that shaped your personality, your career ...or your lifes path. These moments may seem the product of happenstance or fate, but best-selling authors Chip and Dan Heath argue that many of these defining experiences can be engineered and used by Toastmasters to fashion more powerful speeches or deliver more enduring leadership lessons. http://bit.ly/TI_PowerofMoments #Toastmasters #Communication #PublicSpeaking #Moments See more

02.01.2022 Having an experienced mentor can mean the difference between a good speech and a great speech! When you join Toastmasters, you will be paired up with an experienced Toastmaster who will provide you with valuable guidance and assistance throughout the learning process. Pictured right is Kylie, with her mentor Marianne. Recently Kylie undertook her second project where she had to write a speech, receive feedback, and incorporate that feedback into a second speech.... As this was Kylies second project, she decided to consult her mentor before rewriting her second speech and the results were amazing!
