Stow Kent Toastmasters

Stow Kent Toastmasters Stow Toastmasters is a non profit organization dedicated to educating and improving communication an How Does It Work? A typical meeting lasts 60–90 minutes.

A Toastmasters meeting is a learn-by-doing workshop in which participants hone their speaking and leadership skills in a no-pressure atmosphere. A typical group has 20 to 40 members who meet weekly, biweekly or monthly. There is no instructor in a Toastmasters meeting. Instead, members evaluate one another’s presentations. This feedback process is a key part of the program’s success. Meeting parti

cipants also give impromptu talks on assigned topics, conduct meetings and develop skills related to timekeeping, grammar and parliamentary procedure. Members learn communication skills by working in the Competent Communication manual, a series of 10 self-paced speaking assignments designed to instill a basic foundation in public speaking. Members also learn leadership skills by taking on various meeting roles and working in the Competent Leadership manual. In our learn-by-doing approach, we don't lecture members about leadership skills; we give them responsibilities and mentoring to help. Then we ask them to lead.

Toastmasters went to Lakeview Intermediate School to spend time with Mrs. Bonk’s 6th grade class. We did some impromptu table topics and talked to the kids about details of public speaking. The kids then got up and volunteered to do their own table topics about objects we brought in and some the teacher brought in. Very educational and a fun time!!
