The "Ah Counter" is one of the most important roles at a Toastmaster's meeting. This person listens for your typical filler words - ah, um, so, well, and many more! Many of our newer members learn very quickly how often they use these words while speaking!

Here are some ways to spruce up this role next time you take it on. Thanks to Wade Patterson for the great content!

A Toastmaster's membship can transform your public speaking and communication skills in so many different ways. The comprehensive approach from the "Pathways" education system and the different meeting roles can bring it all together and help you grow as a speaker.

Thanks to Toastmasters George for sharing his personal insights!

https://youtu.be/M7j_JJYrokM?si=HZphviwrsK3byz8m We always struggle to fill the Grammarian role! This is a good listening role that can prepare you for listening AND speaking, as you'll listen to grammar usage, good phrases, and little tweaks that speakers might consider making. It works as a speaking opportunity because you'll be able to deliver your report at the end of the meeting. You also come up with the word of the day - you choose the word you like and challenge each member to use it throughout the meeting.

thanks to Frantically Speaking for this great content!

The "Ice Breaker" speech is just that, breaking the ice! This is the first speech you will give in your Toastmaster's journey. It is a 4 to 6 minute speech on the topic of your choice, but most people choose to introduce themselves to their club. We have 3 Ice Breakers planned for our meeting tomorrow, and we are excited to get to know some of our newer members!

We meet at the UAB Bevill Biomedical Research Building, Room 170, at 5:30 PM on Tuesday August 25th. You will see a sign on the door to knock and we will let you right in! Visitors are always welcome to join us for FREE.
