Celebrating 60 years
What do our members say about Miranda Toastmasters?
Joining Toastmasters in October 2020 has been a transformative experience for me. The skills and confidence I've gained through this journey have enabled me to speak publicly with poise and conviction. Toastmasters has truly been a catalyst for personal and professional growth, and I'm grateful for the supportive community that has encouraged and nurtured my development as a speaker and a leader.
Cathy G // Member since 2020
Initially, I thought I was only going to attend a few times as a visitor to support another course I was completing at the time, but after I attended a few meetings, I knew I had to become a member.
Since being at Toastmasters, I have grown and learned so much from the other members and my public speaking skills have improved immensely – I even won the most improved speaker last year! I highly recommend coming along to a meeting to see what it's like for yourself.
Abbey B // Member since 2022
I joined Toastmasters to develop confidence in speaking to customers with confidence, as I found I was easily flustered when speaking!
Speechcraft and Toastmasters has given me good training in putting my thoughts together to a logical speech, and the atmosphere at the meetings is supportive and friendly.
I have been pushed out of my comfort zone but in a positive way and I hope to continue to travel outside that zone!
I have learned a great deal inn the time I have been with Toastmasters, and I look forward to the fortnightly meetings.
Teresa O // Member since 2021
I joined Miranda Toastmasters after completing the Speechcraft course. I've learned so much through Toastmasters that I have been able to apply to my work and it has boosted my confidence immensely. I love attended the regular meetings to practice public speaking, develop leadership skills and to network with other members.
Miranda Toastmasters is a friendly, supportive and safe environment that I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone.
Jill B // Member since 2016
I lost my husband in a work place accident and I was invited to visit work sites and talk about work place safety, talking about my experience.
Being a very shy person I struggled to talk to groups of people. To help overcome my shyness someone suggested I go to a Toastmasters meeting. That first meeting was in 2013 and I'm still here.
I thoroughly enjoy Toastmasters. I give speeches, take on roles and enter competitions.
I wanted to get more confidence so I can speak in front of a group of people and I feel by being a member of Miranda Toastmasters I have achieved this goal.
I intend to keep going to Toastmasters for many years to come.
Kathy T // Member since 2013
