About Daylighters

About Toastmasters

What happens at a Daylighters meeting?  We practice prepared speeches, impromptu speaking and running a meeting.  We wouldn't grow without feedback from our fellow members on how they saw us.  Our typical meeting agenda shows how everything fits together?

Everyone seams to be busy doing something.  What are they doing?  A team of people is required to have a well run meeting and provide educational opportunities.   We have a short description of the duties at our meeting.

Who belongs to Daylighters?  Daylighters is open to everyone over 18.  We have members who are in the electronics & computer industries, members who are in the health care field, members who are in sales, members in the finance industry and members who are small business owners.  We have a member who is a student and a member who is retired.  We have members who's second language is English and members members who speak professionally. 

Toastmasters is the largest international organization dedicated to oral communication.

How much time does Toastmasters require?  That depends on how fast you want to grow.  Toastmasters is a self paced program.  The more time you put in the faster you will grow.

How is the program structured?  The Toastmasters is a learn by doing program.  A set of professionally prepared manuals provide guidelines for each speech project.  The benefit is in doing each project and getting feedback.

Where's the teacher?  In Toastmasters we don't get feedback from a single "expert".  We get feedback from the entire club.  This is important because two people sitting next to each other my see the speech completely differently.  Just like the audiences we speak to.
