UWA Toastmasters Club is the friendliest option for beginners looking to improve their communication

Don’t come if you’re a great speaker.
Don’t come if standing in front of people feels easy.
Don’t come if you don’t care what others think.

But…

If your heart races before you speak,
If your mind goes blank at the worst moment,
If you walk away thinking “why didn’t I just say it?”

Then this is for you.

Our club is a place to practise speaking,
to stop for a second instead of rushing,
to face that fear that shows up…
and to keep going anyway.

📍 Student Central, Room 2202
🕐 Fridays, 1 p.m.

Guests are always welcome 🙏🏼

What’s wrong with me?
Why is everyone else so good at this?

If you’ve ever had that thought, hear us out.

The fear of public speaking is one of the most common fears. Even experienced speakers still feel it. Shaky hands, a racing heart, a trembling voice. The difference is they don’t let it stop them.

There’s no shame in feeling scared.
There’s no shame in making a mistake.
The only shame is letting that fear hold you back.

That’s why UWA Toastmasters Club exists.

We’re a group of people who all started in the same place. Wanting to grow.
Here, you’ll find support, encouragement, honest feedback, and confidence that comes from doing it.

Come join us as a guest when you’re ready to step into a space where your voice gets stronger every time you use it.

📍 Every Friday, 1:00 PM
📍 Room 2202, Level 2, Student Central (Saw Promenade), University of Western Australia

You don’t have to be ready. You just have to start.

That’s what makes Toastmasters International so special.

You just need the willingness to try.

And you might be surprised how quickly your confidence grows.

If you’d like to see how it works, join us at our next session. Guests are always welcome.

😔 Sorry to break it to you, but most do this and it makes them a worse speaker:
They speak at one speed the entire time.

Speaking too slowly (under ~110 words per minute) can feel calm and clear — but also boring or flat.
Speaking too fast (over ~160 words per minute) can feel energetic — but also chaotic and hard to follow.

💡The magic happens when you move naturally between slow and fast.
• Slower speech creates clarity, seriousness, trust, and reflection
• Faster speech creates excitement, urgency, passion, and momentum

That contrast keeps your audience engaged.
It creates curiosity, anticipation, excitement.

Your voice already has power.
Learning how to use it makes all the difference.

If you’d like to learn more practical techniques to become a confident speaker, join us at UWA Toastmasters this January.

2026 goal: feel confident speaking in front of people.

Maybe you avoid raising your hand in class.
Maybe presentations stress you out more than the assignment itself.
Maybe you know the answer — but someone else always speaks first.

You don’t need to be “naturally confident” to change that.
Confidence comes from practice, feedback, and a supportive space.

That’s exactly what UWA Toastmasters offers.
A place for students to practise speaking, make mistakes, and get better — without pressure.

If confident public speaking is on your list for 2026, this is a good place to start.

🕐 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM

✨ What to expect

In a series of experiments in the 1960s–1970s, Albert Mehrabian explored how people judge feelings and attitudes.

His main conclusion was:
• 7% of emotional meaning comes from the words we say
• 38% comes from the tone of our voice
• 55% comes from our facial expressions

This led to the popular myth:

👉🏼 93% of communication is nonverbal.

But that’s not what he actually said.

His research focused only on situations where a person’s words, tone, and expression didn’t match. In those moments, people naturally trust the nonverbal cues more than the literal words.

💡And that’s a powerful reminder for anyone who speaks in front of others.

In public speaking, how we communicate — our posture, energy, expression, and vocal presence — can support our message or compete with it.

When all three align, our message lands with clarity and confidence.

When they don’t, the audience feels the disconnect immediately.

If you want to learn more about how to grow into a speaker people genuinely enjoy listening to, come join us every Friday at UWA Toastmasters.

It’s a friendly and supportive space to practice, learn, and build real presence.

📅 When: Fridays, 1:00 PM – 1:55 PM
📍 Where: Room 2202, Lvl 2, Student Central, UWA

The first time he stood up to speak, his heart was racing.
His mind was spinning with “What if I forget my words?” and “What if everyone can tell I’m nervous?”

But when he looked up… the audience was listening. Encouraging.

No judgment — just support.

That’s what makes UWA Toastmasters different.
It’s a place where you can practice, make mistakes, and grow — surrounded by people who get it.

If you’ve been wanting to face your fear of public speaking (or simply build more confidence in front of others), come join us.
