Been wanting to do this. I had my first visit to a Toastmasters club yesterday. I spent about an hour and a half. It was worth it. I visited the Elevation Toastmaster's club at the Elevation church, Lekki. This was a good choice for me as it is close to home (Home now is Ologolo, near Jakande, Lekki Expressway). I took part in the Table-Talk session and got good feedback. I spoke for 2 minutes on the topic: If you could travel back in time, within your family history, Who would you love to meet and why? My evaluator said I made use of the pause fillers (Kiitan had told me earlier when I was to make a presentation at work) and needed to make eye contact with my audience when speaking. She used the CRC method. Commend, Recommend and Commend again. I also listened to some prepared speeches by Toastmasters. I would love to attend again and join within the month. The next session is on 17th November 2018. I look forward to making prepared speeches myself.
