* Speak clearly and convincingly in front of an audience

* Listen effectively

* Speak without notice

* Act as a Master of Ceremony

* Learn the art of supportive evaluation

* Become aware of and develop leadership qualities

* Enhance their self esteem.

ABOVE ALL, HOWEVER, THE COURSE WILL FOSTER ONE OF THE ESSENTIAL QUALITIES IN AN EVERMORE COMPLEX AND COMPETITIVE FUTURE WORLD:

AN EFFECTIVE AND

CONFIDENT PERSONALITY.

For school children, apart from a few dollars for the educational materials and refreshments, the service is provided by experienced and interested Toastmasters, free of charge.

A certificate from TOASTMASTERS INTERNATIONAL will be issued to those who complete the course satisfactorily.

Courses are held by arrangement during or after school hours. Some sessions can also be held at weekends.
