Learning Method
There are many means by which you learn, grow and develop
within Legacy Toastmasters. Some of them are:
Practice
Legacy's meetings are designed to give you abundant opportunities
to practice. Regularly speaking in front of people will
help you become more confident each time, plus the more
feedback, support, and encouragement, the easier it is
to meet your goals and improve.
Evaluations & Feedback
Formal evaluations of your speeches and informal feedback
provide suggestions and are valuable in helping to focus
on areas for improvement. We practice kiss-kick evaluations
that compliment, encourage, and also analyze and point
out opportunities for growth.
Observing
Watching other speakers display refined talents in the
areas of vocal variety, gestures, eye contact, introductions,
organizing speeches, inspiring an audience, etc. will
show you ways you can do the same.
Speaking Manuals
Toastmasters International produces detailed step-by-step
manuals for its members, to help develop excellent speaking
abilities no matter what the context is.
Mentors
An experienced club member of your choosing can be your
mentor. They will act as a role model, coach and advisor
for your speeches.
Supportive Environment
You'll notice we compliment and applaud a lot. That's
Legacy's ways to support, encourage, nurture, and push
you along.
