NEW MEMBER EXPERIENCE

TM Dilani Dhananjaya

I can remember the day I found my passion for public speaking It was the day I watched Dananjaya Hettiarachchi ‘s winning speech for the World Championship of Public Speaking 2014. Observing my enthusiasm, my brother recommended me the Toastmasters Club So I thought, “Why not?” Now being one of the newest members of the KTMC, I have taken the best decision. I have no words to express my gratitude towards the KTMC’S senior members for their warm welcome and encouragement This fraternity is professional, and, at the same time, it is friendly So, the members and the guests are confident enough to grab opportunities. Through KTMC I hope to expand my knowledge and enhance my experiences while giving my best to the club In a nutshell, KTMC is a family to me

"Toastmaster "

Actually what is it? Who is a toastmaster ? What should we do to join the toastmaster family ? What is the procedure ?

I haven't had any clear idea about it But I knew that there is something called "Toastmasters" Luckily my subconscious mind forced me to join as a guest So finally I attended to the very first day with little bit confusion

When I go there, there was a friendly welcoming environment, which made me comfortable After the session started all my nervousness vanished away Simply, "Toastmasters" is there to help you with improving your leadership and communication skills All the speakers and role players are being evaluated throughout the meeting which accelerates our growthOverall, joining a Toastmasters club is an excellent experience and I hope to improve public speaking and leadership skills in a supportive environment like this
