Attending as a guests
Guests are always welcome to attend, (no charge) any of our regular meetings, there is no need to RSVP. Please feel free to attend up to four of our meetings as our guest. When you arrive, one of our club members will greet you and give you a copy of the agenda for the evening, and answer any questions you may have. Our Toastmaster for the evening will introduce themselves to you before the start of the meeting. You are welcome to just sit back and observe our meetings. If you are keen and/or willing, the Toastmaster may ask you to read our ‘Welcome to Country’ or our “Club Mission” at the start of our meeting. During the meeting, if you feel comfortable, you may be asked to briefly introduce yourself. You may also like to participate in our “TableTopics” impromptu speech section of the meeting. What to expect at one of our club meetings. Concord Yaralla Toastmasters meetings are chaired by a member who is the ‘Toastmaster’ for the evening. Members participate by taking on different roles during the meeting. The first hour of the meeting usually sees members presenting ‘prepared speeches/presentations’ (2 to 4 speeches per meeting, each between 5 to 7 minutes). We usually have a 10 minute break for a cuppa and chat (tea/coffee etc supplied). During the second half of our meeting, we have "TableTopics" where we practice giving a short (1 to 2 minute) impromptu speech. The “TableTopics Master” will ask each participant a question based on the evening's theme. Every speech and the meeting as a whole is evaluated, with a strong focus on giving positive and constructive feedback to help members improve their presentations. Our club members Every Toastmasters club is slightly different. At Concord Yaralla, everyone, no matter their level and confidence in public speaking or background is always made most welcome. Our club members come from diverse and varied backgrounds, from fourth generation Australians to recent immigrants. We have members who have only recently joined through to very experienced Toastmasters who have been members of various clubs for over 35 years. |
