Session details

In five in-person session, Speechcraft is a condensed version of what Toastmasters members experience in regularly scheduled club meetings. Speechcraft content is accessed online and designed to raise the communication bar, often in all aspects of a participant’s life.

Choose a Topic

This project focuses on defining a topic that will deliver a speaker’s message while supporting the needs and expectations of an audience. You also get to start on your 'Icebreaker' - your first prepared speech in front of a live audience

Prepare to Present

The heart of successful public speaking begins with a solid topic and a well-written speech. It ends with accomplished delivery of that speech. This project focuses on how to write a speech that conveys a message and on methods learners can use to prepare for their presentation.

Know Your Purpose

As learners write and deliver speeches, the focus of the Speechcraft program shifts to the higher-level skills required to succeed as a communicator and speaker. One of those skills is to identify and deliver a purposeful message when speaking to a group.

Body Language

Another step to refining public speaking skills is to understand the impact of movement, gestures, and facial expressions on the effective delivery of a speech. This project focuses on developing a skilled approach to body language when delivering a speech.
