The Speech Confidence Workshop

 (Speechcraft Application is closed - FULL HOUSE!)

An  8-week workshop by NUS Alumni Toastmasters Club

Speechcraft is a workshop that teaches participants the basics of public speaking, and no prior experience in public speaking is necessary. This course is conducted in a friendly, supportive environment and the professional camaraderie between you and the presenters makes the learning process enjoyable.

You will be taught by experienced toastmasters who will help you improve your confidence of speaking in front of others, by building up your communication skills, presentation skills and speech preparation skills. You will be taught the various aspects of public speaking such as beginning and organizing your speech, working with words, varying your voice and using effective gestures.

Speechcraft is a hands-on course, providing you with ample opportunities to practise your listening, speaking and thinking skills. At the start of the course you will receive a Toastmasters Speechcraft Handbook which contains a number of speech projects to work through during the course. Each week you will take part in an impromptu speaking session called Table Topics and watch experienced Toastmasters deliver educational sessions and prepared speeches. Educational sessions include topics such as how to prepare your speech, tips on delivery techniques, and how to speak off the cuff.

At the end of the course, you’ll "graduate", and receive a Toastmasters International Speechcraft Course Completion Certificate.  To enable you to get the most out of this workshop, we are limiting spaces to the first fifteen participants who register.  So hesitate no more – sign up for the workshop today!
