Toastmasters Taster Sessions

A total of six Toastmasters Taster Sessions were conducted in the academic year of 2014–15, which gives students the opportunity to improve their public speaking and presentation skills in a friendly and supportive environment. The sessions involved giving prepared speeches, one-to-two-minutes impromptu talks and speech evaluation, through which members developed English speaking skills, built confidence in public speaking and made lasting friendships. Some new members joined the sessions this year.
