Testimonials

"As a stutterer, Toastmasters has been instrumental in providing a forum for developing confidence in my communication skills from attending meetings, giving speeches, participating in competitions, and contributing to club growth on the executive committee.

I like the type of people Toastmasters attracts - energetic, fun people, looking to get the most out of life. And it's all good fun too!"
Mike Pavey, President

"I have been in Toastmasters on and off over thirty years. I really enjoy it and have made some good friends. The environment for growth is similar to a vegetable garden that gets plenty of water and sunshine. You can almost watch it grow. As a result of Toastmaster training, I have been far more effective at discussion groups in my role as an accountant, in committees and as a lecturer in business studies. Toastmaster meetings are held in an atmosphere of good fun but with a structured course of learning set out in the Communication & Leadership manuals. All members are given the opportunity to participate in the running of the club.

Toastmasters is for people who want to get their message across to others."

"I first started Toastmasters in 2001 so as to be able to talk in front of more than 2 people with out getting tongue tied & twisted up in knots. The friendly & encouraging atmosphere has helped me grow within myself into a more confident person. For that I believe Toastmasters Mornington & the members of Toastmasters in general I have to thank."

"As a romance novelist I'm often called upon to give talks at writers conferences, libraries and to women's groups. Being more comfortable with the written word I decided I needed help and fast! Since joining Toastmasters I've gained a confidence in public speaking which has helped me enormously in my work and in my private life. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming I feel I've made new friends as well as learned new skills. Toastmasters is both challenging and fun and offers opportunities for personal growth that have gone far beyond my initial expectations. I only wish I'd joined years ago!"
